  • Abstract
    We give upper bounds for the regularity of edge ideal of some classes of graphs in terms of invariants of graph. We introduce two numbers a0(G) and n(G) depending on graph G and show that for a vertex decomposable graph G, reg(R/I(G)) leq min{a (G), n(G)} and for a shellable graph G, reg(R/I(G)) leq n(G). Moreover, it is shown that for a graph G, where Gc is a d-tree, we have pd(R/I(G)) = maxv2V (G){degG(v)}
