We introduce a new graph-theoretic concept in the area of network monitoring. In this area, one wishes to monitor vertices and/or edges (viewed as graph) order detect and prevent failures. Inspired by two notions studied literature (edge-geodetic sets distance-edge-monitoring sets), we define notion monitoring edge-geodetic set (MEG-set for short) graph G an $$S\subseteq V(G)$$ (that is, every ...

Recently, the first and second Zagreb indices are generalized into the variable Zagreb indices which are defined by M1(G) = ∑ u∈V (d(u))2λ and M2(G) = ∑ uv∈E (d(u)d(v)), where λ is any real number. In this paper, we prove that M1(G)/n M2(G)/m for all unicyclic graphs and all λ ∈ (−∞, 0]. And we also show that the relationship of numerical value between M1(G)/n and M2(G)/m is indefinite in the d...

In an ordinary edge-coloring of a graph each color appears at each vertex at most once. An f -coloring is a generalized edge-coloring in which each color appears at each vertex v at most f(v) times where f(v) is a positive integer assigned to v. This paper gives efficient sequential and parallel algorithms to find ordinary edge-colorings and f -colorings for various classes of graphs such as bi...

Topological indices play an important role in Mathematical Chemistry especially in the quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) and quantitative structureactivity relationship (QSAR). Recent research indicates that the augmented Zagreb index (AZI) possess the best correlating ability among several topological indices. The main purpose of the current study is to establish some mathema...

The Wiener polarity indexWP (G) of a graph G is the number of unordered pairs of vertices {u, v} of G such that the distance of u and v is equal to 3. In this paper, we obtain the relation between Wiener polarity index and Zegreb indices, and the relation between Wiener polarity index and Wiener index (resp. hyper-Wiener index). Moreover, we determine the second smallest Wiener polarity index t...

Let G = (V, E) be a graph with chromatic number χ(G). A dominating set D of G is called a chromatic transversal dominating set (ctd-set) if D intersects every color class of every χ-partition of G. The minimum cardinality of a ctd-set of G is called the chromatic transversal domination number of G and is denoted by γct(G). In this paper we characterize the class of trees, unicyclic graphs and c...

The algebraic connectivity ofG is the second smallest eigenvalue of its Laplacianmatrix. Let Un be the set of all unicyclic graphs of order n. In this paper, wewill provide the ordering of unicyclic graphs inUn up to the last seven graphs according to their algebraic connectivities when n ≥ 13. This extends the results of Liu and Liu [Y. Liu, Y. Liu, The ordering of unicyclic graphswith the sma...

Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity is one of the most important invariants in commutative algebra. It has been investigated by various authors from different point of view. One of the interesting properties of regularity is its asymptotic behavior. In this talk first we will see some well-known facts of regularity and then I will present some known results of asymptotic behavior of quadratic square...

A graph G of order n is called arbitrarily vertex decomposable if for each sequence (n1, . . . , nk) of positive integers such that ∑k i=1 ni = n, there exists a partition (V1, . . . , Vk) of vertex set of G such that for every i ∈ {1, . . . , k} the set Vi induces a connected subgraph of G on ni vertices. We consider arbitrarily vertex decomposable unicyclic graphs with dominating cycle. We al...
