mean labelings are a type of additive vertex labeling. this labeling assigns non-negative integers to the vertices of a graph in such a way that all edge-weights are different, where the weight of an edge is defined as the mean of the end-vertex labels rounded up to the nearest integer. in this paper we focus on mean labelings of some graphs that are the result of the corona operation. in parti...

the edge tenacity te(g) of a graph g is dened 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 spli...

the energy of a graph is equal to the sum of the absolute values of its eigenvalues. two graphs of the same order are said to be equienergetic if their energies are equal. we point out the following two open problems for equienergetic graphs. (1) although it is known that there are numerous pairs of equienergetic, non-cospectral trees, it is not known how to systematically construct any such pa...

let $g=(v, e)$ be a graph. by emph{directional labeling (ord-labeling)} of an edge $x=uv$ of $g$ by an ordered $n$-tuple$(a_1,a_2,...,a_n)$, we mean a labeling of the edge $x$ such thatwe consider the label on $uv$ as $(a_1,a_2,...,a_n)$ in thedirection from $u$ to $v$, and the label on $x$ as$(a_{n},a_{n-1},...,a_1)$ in the direction from $v$ to $u$. inthis paper, we study graphs, called emph{...

Abstract. A divisor cordial labeling of a graph G with vertex set V is a bijection f from V to {1, 2,... | |} V such that an edge uv is assigned the label 1 if ( ) | ( ) f u f v or ( ) | ( ) f v f u and the label 0 otherwise, then number of edges labeled with 0 and the number of edges labeled with 1 differ by at most 1. A graph with a divisor cordial labeling is called a divisor cordial graph. ...

See examples in Fig. 1(b). Many graph algorithms use an st-orientation. For instance, graph drawing algorithms [3], [4], [17], [19], [22], routing algorithms [1], [13] and partitioning algorithms [14]. Given a biconnected graph G and its two vertices s and t, one can find an st-orientation of G in O(m + n) time [5], [6], [22]. Note that if G is not biconnected then G may have no st-orientation....

A path graph is the intersection graph of subpaths of a tree. In 1970, Renz asked for a characterization of path graphs by forbidden induced subgraphs. We answer this question by determining the complete list of graphs that are not path graphs and are minimal with this property. 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 62: 369–384, 2009

We prove that for any class of finite or countable graphs closed under taking subgraphs, and such that every finite graph in the class has a number of edges linearly bounded in terms of the number of vertices, the edge set quantifications can be replaced by vertex set quantifications in Monadic secondorder formulas. This result extends to hypergraphs of bounded rank.

A graph that contains a Hamiltonian cycle is called a Hamiltonian graph. In this paper we compute the first and the second geometric – arithmetic indices of Hamiltonian graphs. Then we apply our results to obtain some bounds for fullerene.

In this paper, we study matching integral graphs of small order. A graph is called matching integral if the zeros of its matching polynomial are all integers. Matching integral graphs were first studied by Akbari, Khalashi, etc. They characterized all traceable graphs which are matching integral. They studied matching integral regular graphs. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is no matc...
