Nageswara Rao K., Germina K.A., Shaini P. . A Characterization of k-Uniform DCSL Graphs. International Journal of Computer Applications. 125, 7 ( September 2015), 1-5. DOI=10.5120/ijca2015905956
Let an injective function f : V (G) → 2X, where V (G) is the vertex set of a graph G and 2X is the power set of a nonempty set X, be given. Consider the induced function f⊕ : V (G) × V (G) → \{Φ} defined by f⊕ (u, v) = f(u) ⊕ f(v), where f(u) ⊕ f(v) denotes the symmetric difference of the two sets. The function f is called a k-uniform dcsl (and X a k-uniform dcsl-set) of the graph G, if there exists a positive constant k such that |f⊕ (u, v)|= kdG(u, v), where dG(u, v) is the length of a shortest path between u and v in G. If a graph G admits a k-uniform dcsl, then G is called a k-uniform dcsl graph. In this paper, we initiate a study on 2-uniform dscl graphs and we establish a characterization for a graph to be k-uniform dcsl.
