Abstract

For a graph G, let γ:V(G)→1,⋯,|V(G)| be a one-to-one function. The bandwidth of γ is the maximum of |γ(u)-γ(v)| over uv∈E(G). The bandwidth of G, denoted b(G), is the minimum bandwidth over all embeddings γ, b(G)=min γmax|γ(u)-γ(v) |:uv∈E(G). In this paper, we show that the bandwidth computation problem for trees of diameter at most 4 can be solved in polynomial time. This naturally complements the result computing the bandwidth for 2-caterpillars. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
