Let G be a graph. The first Zagreb polynomial M1(G, x) and the third Zagreb polynomial M3(G, x) of the graph G are defined as:     ( ) ( , ) [ ] e uv E G G x x d(u) + d(v) M1 , ( , )  euvE(G) G x x|d(u) - d(v)| M3 . In this paper, we compute the first and third Zagreb polynomials of Cartesian product of two graphs and a type of dendrimers.

For an integer i, a graph is called an Li-graph if, for each triple of vertices u, v, w with d(u, v) = 2 and w ∈ N(u) ∩N(v), d(u) + d(v) ≥ |N(u) ∪N(v) ∪N(w)| − i. Asratian and Khachatrian proved that connected L0-graphs of order at least 3 are hamiltonian, thus improving Ore’s Theorem. All K1,3-free graphs are L1-graphs, whence recognizing hamiltonian L1-graphs is an NP-complete problem. The fo...

let g = (v, e) be a simple graph. hosoya polynomial of g isd(u,v)h(g, x) = {u,v}v(g)x , where, d(u ,v) denotes the distance between vertices uand v. as is the case with other graph polynomials, such as chromatic, independence anddomination polynomial, it is natural to study the roots of hosoya polynomial of a graph. inthis paper we study the roots of hosoya polynomials of some specific graphs.

In this paper we survey the behavior of various graph operations on the graph parameters clique-width and NLC-width. We give upper and lower bounds for the clique-width and NLC-width of the modi ed graphs in terms of the clique-width and NLC-width of the involved graphs. Therefor we consider the binary graph operations join, co-join, sum, di erence, products, corona, substitution, and 1-sum, an...
