Double Power of 2 Decomposition [DPo2D] of Graphs

S. Asha, V.G. Smilin Shali

Abstract

Let G be a finite, connected simple graph with p vertices and q edges. If G1, G2,...., Gn are connected edge-disjoint subgraphs of G with E(G) = E(G1) υ E(G2) υ ... υ E(Gn), then { G1, G2,...., Gn} is said to be a decomposition of G. In this paper we introduce a new concept called Double power of 2 Decomposition of graphs. A graph G is said to have Double Power of 2 Decomposition if G can be decomposed into subgraphs { 2G1, 2G2,...,2Gn} such that each G2, is connected and |E(Gi) = 2i, for 1≤i≤n. Clearly, q = 4[2n-1]. In this paper, we investigate the necessary and sufficient condition for graphs such as J(m,3), Lm, Tm and Hm to accept Double Power of 2 Decomposition.
