Graph with respect to superfluous elements in a lattice
Tapatee Sahoo; Harikrishnan Panackal; Kedukodi Babushri Srinivas; Syam Prasad Kuncham;Abstract
We consider superfluous elements in a bounded lattice with 0 and 1, and introduce various types of graphs associated with these elements. The notions such as, superfluous element graph ($S(L)$), join intersection graph ($JI(L)$) in a lattice, and in a distributive lattice, superfluous intersection graph ($SI(L)$) are defined. Dual atoms play an important role to find connection between the lattice-theoretic properties and those of corresponding graph-theoretic properties. Consequently, we derive some important equivalent conditions of graphs involving the cardinality of dual atoms in a lattice. We provide necessary illustrations and investigate properties such as diameter, girth and cut vertex of these graphs.
