A pair of vertices of a graph is called an even pair if every chordless path between them has an even number of edges. A graph is minimally even pair free if it is not a clique, contains no even pair, but every proper induced subgraph either contains an even pair or is a clique. Hougardy (European J. Combin. 16 (1995) 17–21) conjectured that a minimally even pair free graph is either an odd cyc...

‎Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a simple connected graph with vertex set V(G) and edge‎ ‎set E(G)‎. ‎The (first) edge-hyper Wiener index of the graph G is defined as‎: ‎$$WW_{e}(G)=sum_{{f,g}subseteq E(G)}(d_{e}(f,g|G)+d_{e}^{2}(f,g|G))=frac{1}{2}sum_{fin E(G)}(d_{e}(f|G)+d^{2}_{e}(f|G)),$$‎ ‎where de(f,g|G) denotes the distance between the edges f=xy and g=uv in E(G) and de(f|G)=∑g€(G)de(f,g|G). ‎In thi...

‎‎let $g=(v,e)$ be a simple graph‎. ‎an edge labeling $f:eto {0,1}$ induces a vertex labeling $f^+:vtoz_2$ defined by $f^+(v)equiv sumlimits_{uvin e} f(uv)pmod{2}$ for each $v in v$‎, ‎where $z_2={0,1}$ is the additive group of order 2‎. ‎for $iin{0,1}$‎, ‎let‎ ‎$e_f(i)=|f^{-1}(i)|$ and $v_f(i)=|(f^+)^{-1}(i)|$‎. ‎a labeling $f$ is called edge-friendly if‎ ‎$|e_f(1)-e_f(0)|le 1$‎. ‎$i_f(g)=v_f(...

In this paper a tight lower bound for algebraic connectivity of graphs (second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of the graph) based on connection-graph-stability method is introduced. The connection-graph-stability score for each edge is defined as the sum of the length of all the shortest paths making use of that edge. We prove that the algebraic connectivity of the graph is lower b...

An adjacent vertex distinguishing edge-coloring or an avd-coloring of a simple graph G is a proper edge-coloring of G such that no pair of adjacent vertices meets the same set of colors. We prove that every graph with maximum degree ∆ and with no isolated edges has an avd-coloring with at most ∆ + 300 colors, provided that ∆ > 1020. AMS Subject Classification: 05C15

In the Waypoint Routing Problem one is given an undirected capacitated and weighted graph G, a source-destination pair s,t?V(G) set W?V(G), of waypoints. The task to find walk which starts at source vertex s, visits, in any order, all waypoints, ends destination t, respects edge capacities, that is, traverses each most as many times its capacity, minimizes cost computed sum costs traversed edge...

The energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. The edge grafting operation on a graph is a kind of edge moving between the two pendent paths starting from the same vertex. In this paper we show how the graph energy change under the edge grafting operations. As the applications of this grafting method, we also obtain some new results on a conj...

A Sum divisor cordial labeling of a graph G with vertex set V is bijection r from to {1,2,3,...,|V (G )|} such that an edge uv assigned the label 1 if 2 divides r(u)+ (v ) and 0 otherwise; number edges labeled 1differ by at most . sum called graph. In this research paper, we investigate bahevior for Grötzsch graph, fusion any two vertices in duplication arbitrary switching degree four three pat...

Let G = (V + s, E) be a 2-edge-connected graph with a designated vertex s. A pair of edges rs, st is called admissible if splitting off these edges (replacing rs and st by rt) preserves the local edge-connectivity (the maximum number of pairwise edge disjoint paths) between each pair of vertices in V. The operation splitting off is very useful in graph theory, it is especially powerful in the s...
