This not only answers a question of Chen, Archdeacon and Gross, but also generalizes the previous known results. Thus, a picture of the lower bounds on the maximum genus of loopless multigraphs is presented.展开更多

文摘The lower bounds on the maximum genus of loopless graphs are obtained according to the connectivity of these graphs. This not only answers a question of Chen, Archdeacon and Gross, but also generalizes the previous known results. Thus, a picture of the lower bounds on the maximum genus of loopless multigraphs is presented.
文摘It is shown that the lower bound on the maximum genus of a 3-edge connected loopless graph is at least one-third of its cycle rank. Moreover, this lower bound is tight. There are infinitely such graphs attaining the bound.
