The competition graph of a digraph D is a graph which has the same vertex set as D and has an edge between x and y if and only if there exists a vertex v in D such that (x, v) and (y, v) are arcs of D. For any graph G, G together with sufficiently many isolated vertices is the competition graph of some acyclic digraph. The competition number k(G) of a graph G is defined to be the smallest number of such isolated vertices. In general, it is hard to compute the competition number k(G) for a graph G and it has been one of important research problems in the study of competition graphs. In this paper, we compute the competition numbers of Hamming graphs with diameter at most three.

이 논문은 재귀원형군 G(2^m , 2^k )를 그래프 이론적 관점에서 고찰하고 정점이 서로소인 사이클과 그래프 invariant에 관한 위상 특성을 제시한다. 재귀원형군은 1 에서 제안된 다중 컴퓨터의 연결망 구조이다. 재귀원형군 {{{{G(2^m , 2^k )가 길이 사이클을 가질 필요 충분 조건을 구하고, 이 조건하에서 G(2^m , 2^k )는 가능한 최대 개수의 정점이 서로소이고 길이가l`인 사이클을 가짐을 보인다. 그리고 정점 및 에지 채색, 최대 클릭, 독립 집합 및 정점 커버에 대한 그래프 invariant를 분석한다.Abstract In this paper, we investigate recursive circulant G(2^m , 2^k ) from the graph theory point of view and present topological properties of G(2^m , 2^k ) concerned with vertex-disjoint cycles and graph invariants. Recursive circulant is an interconnection structure for multicomputer networks proposed in 1 . A necessary and sufficient condition for recursive circulant {{{{G(2^m , 2^k ) to have a cycle of lengthl` is derived. Under the condition, we show that G(2^m , 2^k ) has the maximum possible number of vertex-disjoint cycles of length l`. We analyze graph invariants on vertex and edge coloring, maximum clique, independent set and vertex cover.
