‎the harmonic index of a connected graph $g$‎, ‎denoted by $h(g)$‎, ‎is‎ ‎defined as $h(g)=sum_{uvin e(g)}frac{2}{d_u+d_v}$‎ ‎where $d_v$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ in g‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎expressions for the harary indices of the‎ ‎join‎, ‎corona product‎, ‎cartesian product‎, ‎composition and symmetric difference of graphs are‎ ‎derived‎.

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...

The inflation $G_{I}$ of a graph $G$ with $n(G)$ vertices and $m(G)$ edges is obtained from $G$ by replacing every vertex of degree $d$ of $G$ by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph $K_{d}$, and each edge $(x_{i},x_{j})$ of $G$ is replaced by an edge $(u,v)$ in such a way that $uin X_{i}$, $vin X_{j}$, and two different edges of $G$ are replaced by non-adjacent edges of $G_{I}$. T...

The study of asymptotic minimum degree thresholds that force matchings and tilings in hypergraphs is a lively area research combinatorics. A key breakthrough this was result H\`{a}n, Person Schacht who proved the vertex threshold for perfect matching an $n$-vertex $3$-graph $\left(\frac{5}{9}+o(1)\right)\binom{n}{2}$. In paper we improve on result, giving family sequence results, all which impl...

The edge tenacity Te(G) of a graph G is dened as:Te(G) = min {[|X|+τ(G-X)]/[ω(G-X)-1]|X ⊆ E(G) and ω(G-X) > 1} where the minimum is taken over every edge-cutset X that separates G into ω(G - X) components, and by τ(G - X) we denote the order of a largest component of G. The objective of this paper is to determine this quantity for split graphs. Let G = (Z; I; E) be a noncomplete connected split...

The clustering coefficient quantifies how well connected are the neighbors of a vertex in a graph. In real networks it decreases with the vertex degree, which has been taken as a signature of the network hierarchical structure. Here we show that this signature of hierarchical structure is a consequence of degree-correlation biases in the clustering coefficient definition. We introduce a definit...

Let $G$ be a finite group and $pi_{e}(G)$ be the set of orders of all elements in $G$. The set $pi_{e}(G)$ determines the prime graph (or Grunberg-Kegel graph) $Gamma(G)$ whose vertex set is $pi(G)$, the set of primes dividing the order of $G$, and two vertices $p$ and $q$ are adjacent if and only if $pqinpi_{e}(G)$. The degree $deg(p)$ of a vertex $pin pi(G)$, is the number of edges incident...

For any finite, undirected, non-bipartite, vertex-transitive graph, we establish an explicit lower bound for the smallest eigenvalue of its normalised adjacency operator, which depends on graph only through degree and vertex-Cheeger constant. We also prove analogous result a large class irregular graphs, obtained as spanning subgraphs graphs. Using Babai, obtain operator in terms diameter degree.

Vertex Descent is a local search algorithm which forms the basis of a wide spectrum of tabu search, simulated annealing and hybrid evolutionary algorithms for graph colouring. These algorithms are usually treated as experimental and provide strong results on established benchmarks. As a step towards studying these heuristics analytically, an analysis of the behaviour of Vertex Descent is provid...

A vertex subset X of a graph G is said to be cyclable in G if there is a cycle in G containing all vertices of X. Ore [6] showed that the vertex set of G with cardinality n ≥ 3 is cyclable (i.e. G is hamiltonian) if the degree sum of any pair of nonadjacent vertices in G is at least n. Shi [8] and Ota [7] respectively generalized Ore’s result by considering the cyclability of any vertex subset ...
