چکیده

The edge-bandwidth of a graph is the minimum, over all labelings of the edges with distinct integers, of the maximum difference between labels of two incident edges. We prove that edgebandwidth is at least as large as bandwidth for every graph, with equality for certain caterpillars. We obtain sharp or nearly sharp bounds on the change in edge-bandwidth under addition, subdivision, or contraction of edges. We compute edge-bandwidth for Kn, Kn,n, caterpillars, and some theta graphs.

On the bandwidth of Mobius graphs

Bandwidth labelling is a well known research area in graph theory. We provide a new proof that the bandwidth of Mobius ladder is 4, if it is not a $K_{4}$, and investigate the bandwidth of a wider class of Mobius graphs of even strips.

CERTAIN TYPES OF EDGE m-POLAR FUZZY GRAPHS

In this research paper, we present a novel frame work for handling $m$-polar information by combining the theory of $m-$polar fuzzy  sets with graphs. We introduce certain types of edge regular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs and edge irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. We describe some useful properties of edge regular, strongly edge irregular and strongly edge totally irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. W...

Some results on vertex-edge Wiener polynomials and indices of graphs

The vertex-edge Wiener polynomials of a simple connected graph are defined based on the distances between vertices and edges of that graph. The first derivative of these polynomials at one are called the vertex-edge Wiener indices. In this paper, we express some basic properties of the first and second vertex-edge Wiener polynomials of simple connected graphs and compare the first and second ve...

On Total Edge Irregularity Strength of Staircase Graphs and Related Graphs

Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a connected simple undirected graph with non empty vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G). For a positive integer k, by an edge irregular total k-labeling we mean a function f : V(G)UE(G) --> {1,2,...,k} such that for each two edges ab and cd, it follows that f(a)+f(ab)+f(b) is different from f(c)+f(cd)+f(d), i.e. every two edges have distinct weights. The minimum k for which G ...

Product of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs

For two normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on groups H and K which have no common direct factor and $gcd(|H/H^prime|,|Z(K)|)=1=gcd(|K/K^prime|,|Z(H)|)$, we consider four standard products of them and it is proved that only tensor product of factors can be normal edge-transitive.

Edge - Bandwidth

In this paper we discuss the edge-bandwidth of some families of graphs and characterize graphs by edge-bandwidth. In particular, bounds for m × n grids, triangular grids of size l, and the closure of the triangular grid T * l .
