Frustração de Arestas em (3, 6)-Fullerenes
Abstract
A (3, 6)-fullerene graph is a cubic bridgeless plane graph with all faces of size 3 or 6. Determining the smallest number of edges that have to be deleted from the graph to obtain a bipartite spanning subgraph is known in the literature [Doslic and Vukicevic 2007] as the Bipartite Edge Frustration Problem. In this paper, we investigate the Bipartite Edge Frustration Problem in (3, 6)-fullerene graphs. We show that every graph (3, 6)-fullerene on n vertices becomes bipartite after deleting at mostq 4 3n edges.
