Counting Vertices in Isohedral Tilings

Choi, John 31 May 2012 (has links)
An isohedral tiling is a tiling of congruent polygons that are also transitive, which is to say the configuration of degrees of vertices around each face is identical. Regular tessellations, or tilings of congruent regular polygons, are a special case of isohedral tilings. Viewing these tilings as graphs in planes, both Euclidean and non-Euclidean, it is possible to pose various problems of enumeration on the respective graphs. In this paper, we investigate some near-regular isohedral tilings of triangles and quadrilaterals in the hyperbolic plane. For these tilings we enumerate vertices as classified by number of edges in the shortest path to a given origin, by combinatorially deriving their respective generating functions.

Interval Graphs

Yang, Joyce C 01 January 2016 (has links)
We examine the problem of counting interval graphs. We answer the question posed by Hanlon, of whether the formal power series generating function of the number of interval graphs on n vertices has a positive radius of convergence. We have found that it is zero. We have obtained a lower bound and an upper bound on the number of interval graphs on n vertices. We also study the application of interval graphs to the dynamic storage allocation problem. Dynamic storage allocation has been shown to be NP-complete by Stockmeyer. Coloring interval graphs on-line has applications to dynamic storage allocation. The most colors used by Kierstead's algorithm is 3 ω -2, where ω is the size of the largest clique in the graph. We determine a lower bound on the colors used. One such lower bound is 2 ω -1.
