Let d(u, v) denote the distance between two distinct vertices of a connected graph G, and diam(G) be the diameter of G. A radio labeling c of G is an assignment of positive integers to the vertices of G satisfying d(u, v) + |c(u) − c(v)| ≥ diam(G) + 1. The maximum integer in the range of the labeling is its span. The radio number of G, rn(G), is the minimum possible span. The family of gear gra...

Robertson and Seymour (1990) proved that graphs of bounded tree-width are well-quasi-ordered by the graph minor relation. By extending their arguments, Geelen, Gerards, and Whittle (2002) proved that binary matroids of bounded branch-width are well-quasi-ordered by the matroid minor relation. We prove another theorem of this kind in terms of rank-width and vertex-minors. For a graph G = (V,E) a...

We relate the tree-decompositions of hypergraphs introduced by Robertson and Seymour to the finite and infinité algebraic expressions introduced by Bauderon and Courcelle. We express minor inclusion in monadic second-order logic, and we obtain grammatical characterizations of certain sets of graphs defined by excluded minors. We show how tree-decompositions can be used to construct quadratic al...

Betweenness centrality is a distance-based invariant of graphs. In this paper, we use lexicographic product to compute betweenness centrality of some important classes of graphs. Finally, we pose some open problems related to this topic.

In this paper the Wiener and hyper Wiener index of two kinds of dendrimer graphs are determined. Using the Wiener index formula, the Szeged, Schultz, PI and Gutman indices of these graphs are also determined.

the first zagreb index, $m_1(g)$, and second zagreb index, $m_2(g)$, of the graph $g$ is defined as $m_{1}(g)=sum_{vin v(g)}d^{2}(v)$ and $m_{2}(g)=sum_{e=uvin e(g)}d(u)d(v),$ where $d(u)$ denotes the degree of vertex $u$. in this paper, the firstand second maximum values of the first and second zagreb indicesin the class of all $n-$vertex tetracyclic graphs are presented.

for two normal edge-transitive cayley graphs on groups h and k which have no common direct factor and gcd(jh=h ′j; jz(k)j) = 1 = gcd(jk=k ′j; jz(h)j), we consider four standard products of them and it is proved that only tensor product of factors can be normal edge-transitive.

A graph is called supermagic if there is a labeling of edges where the edges are labeled with consecutive distinct positive integers such that the sum of the labels of all edges incident with any vertex is constant. A graph G is called degree-magic if there is a labeling of the edges by integers 1, 2, ..., |E(G)| such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with any vertex v is equal t...

In $1994,$ degree distance  of a graph was introduced by Dobrynin, Kochetova and Gutman. And Gutman proposed the Gutman index of a graph in $1994.$ In this paper, we introduce the concepts of  multiplicative version of degree distance and the multiplicative version of Gutman index of a graph. We find the sharp upper bound for the  multiplicative version of degree distance and multiplicative ver...
