Deposits of clastic carbonate-dominated (calciclastic) sedimentary slope systems in the rock record have been identified mostly as linearly-consistent carbonate apron deposits, even though most ancient clastic carbonate slope deposits fit the submarine fan systems better. Calciclastic submarine fans are consequently rarely described and are poorly understood. Subsequently, very little is known especially in mud-dominated calciclastic submarine fan systems. Presented in this study are a sedimentological core and petrographic characterisation of samples from eleven boreholes from the Lower Carboniferous of Bowland Basin (Northwest England) that reveals a >250 m thick calciturbidite complex deposited in a calciclastic submarine fan setting. Seven facies are recognised from core and thin section characterisation and are grouped into three carbonate turbidite sequences. They include: 1) Calciturbidites, comprising mostly of highto low-density, wavy-laminated bioclast-rich facies; 2) low-density densite mudstones which are characterised by planar laminated and unlaminated muddominated facies; and 3) Calcidebrites which are muddy or hyper-concentrated debrisflow deposits occurring as poorly-sorted, chaotic, mud-supported floatstones.

This book gives an elementary treatment of the basic material about graph spectra, both for ordinary, and Laplace and Seidel spectra. The text progresses systematically, by covering standard topics before presenting some new material on trees, strongly regular graphs, two-graphs, association schemes, p-ranks of configurations and similar topics. Exercises at the end of each chapter provide practice and vary from easy yet interesting applications of the treated theory, to little excursions into related topics. Tables, references at the end of the book, an author and subject index enrich the text. Spectra of Graphs is written for researchers, teachers and graduate students interested in graph spectra. The reader is assumed to be familiar with basic linear algebra and eigenvalues, although some more advanced topics in linear algebra, like the Perron-Frobenius theorem and eigenvalue interlacing are included.

Spectra of graphs

This book provides the most basic problems, concepts, and well-established results from the topological structure and analysis of interconnection networks in the graph-theoretic language. It covers the basic principles and methods of network design, several well-known networks such as hypercubes, de Bruijn digraphs, Kautz digraphs, double loop, and other networks, and the newest parameters to measure performance of fault-tolerant networks such as Menger number, Rabin number, fault-tolerant diameter, wide-diameter, restricted connectivity, and (l,w)-dominating number. Audience: The book is suitable for those readers who are working on or intend to start research in design analysis of the topological structure of interconnection networks, particularly undergraduates and postgraduates specializing in computer science and applied mathematics.

Topological Structure and Analysis of Interconnection Networks

For the list object, introduced in Chapter 5, it was shown that each data element contains at most one predecessor element and one successor element. Therefore, for any given data element or node in the list structure, we can talk in terms of a next element and a previous element.

Graphs and Digraphs

This article is intended as a survey, updating earlier surveys in the area. For completeness of the presentation of both particular questions and the general area, it also contains material on closely related topics such as traceable, pancyclic and hamiltonian-connected graphs and digraphs.

Advances on the Hamiltonian Problem – A Survey

Domination alteration sets in graphs

In this survey we have attempted to bring together most of the results and papers that deal with toughness related to cycle structure. We begin with a brief introduction and a section on terminology and notation, and then try to organize the work into a few self explanatory categories. These categories are circumference, the disproof of the 2-tough conjecture, factors, special graph classes, computational complexity, and miscellaneous results as they relate to toughness. We complete the survey with some tough open problems!

Not every 2-tough graph is Hamiltonian

Recognizing tough graphs is NP-hard

This paper presents some results regarding the design of reliable networks. The problem under consideration involves networks which are undirected graphs having equal and independent edge failure probabilities. The index of reliability is the probability that the network fails (becomes disconnected). For “small” edge failure probabilities and given p and q there exists a class of p vertex, q edge graphs with the property that any graph in the class has a smaller probability of disconnection than any graph outside of the class. We solve the problem of synthesizing graphs in this class.
