Let $A$ and $B$ be two disjoint subsets of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $G$. The set $A$ is said to dominate $B$, denoted by $A rightarrow B$, if for every vertex $u in B$ there exists a vertex $v in A$ such that $uv in E(G)$. For any graph $G$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_p}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i rightarrow V_j$ or $V_j rightarrow...

The second Zagreb coindex is a well-known graph invariant defined as the total degree product of all non-adjacent vertex pairs in a graph. The second Zagreb eccentricity coindex is defined analogously to the second Zagreb coindex by replacing the vertex degrees with the vertex eccentricities. In this paper, we present exact expressions or sharp lower bounds for the second Zagreb eccentricity co...

the rings considered in this article are  commutative  with identity which admit at least two  nonzero annihilating ideals. let $r$ be a ring. let $mathbb{a}(r)$ denote the set of all annihilating ideals of $r$ and let $mathbb{a}(r)^{*} = mathbb{a}(r)backslash {(0)}$. the annihilating-ideal graph of $r$, denoted by $mathbb{ag}(r)$  is an undirected simple graph whose vertex set is $mathbb{a}(r)...

the topological index of a graph g is a numeric quantity related to g which is invariant underautomorphisms of g. the vertex pi polynomial is defined as piv (g)  euv nu (e)  nv (e).then omega polynomial (g,x) for counting qoc strips in g is defined as (g,x) =cm(g,c)xc with m(g,c) being the number of strips of length c. in this paper, a new infiniteclass of fullerenes is constructed. the ...

a novel algorithm for the fast detection of hubs in chemical networks is presented. thealgorithm identifies a set of nodes in the network as most significant, aimed to be the mosteffective points of distribution for fast, widespread coverage throughout the system. we showthat our hubs have in general greater closeness centrality and betweenness centrality thanvertices with maximal degree, while...

‎recently‎, ‎some techniques such as adding whiskers and attaching graphs to vertices of a given graph‎, ‎have been proposed for constructing a new vertex decomposable graph‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we present a new method for constructing vertex decomposable graphs‎. ‎then we use this construction to generalize the result due to cook and nagel‎.
