The irregularity of a simple undirected graph [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. The total irregularity of a graph as a new measure of graph irregularity is defined as [Formula: see text]. In this paper, the irregularity and the total irregularity of fractal graphs and the derived graphs from a class of fractal graphs are investigated. Exact formulae are presented for the computation of the irregularity and total irregularity of fractal-type graphs in terms of the parameters of the underlying graphs.

Albertson [3] has defined the P irregularity of a simple undirected graph G = (V,E) as irr(G) =?uv?E |dG(u)- dG(v)|, where dG(u) denotes the degree of a vertex u ? V. Recently, this graph invariant gained interest in the chemical graph theory, where it occured in some bounds on the first and the second Zagreb index, and was named the third Zagreb index [12]. For general graphs with n vertices, Albertson has obtained an asymptotically tight upper bound on the irregularity of 4n3/27: Here, by exploiting a different approach than in [3], we show that for general graphs with n vertices the upper bound ?n/3? ?2n/3? (?2n/3? -1) is sharp. We also present lower bounds on the maximal irregularity of graphs with fixed minimal and/or maximal vertex degrees, and consider an approximate computation of the irregularity of a graph.

The total irregularity of a simple undirected graph $G$ is defined as $\text{irr}_{t}(G)=\frac{1}{2}\sum _{u,v\in V(G)}|d_{G}(u)-d_{G}(v)|$, where $d_{G}(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u\in V(G)$. Obviously, $\text{irr}_{t}(G)=0$ if and only if $G$ is regular. Here, we characterise the nonregular graphs with minimal total irregularity and thereby resolve the recent conjecture by Zhu et al. [‘The minimal total irregularity of graphs’, Preprint, 2014, arXiv:1404.0931v1 ] about the lower bound on the minimal total irregularity of nonregular connected graphs. We show that the conjectured lower bound of $2n-4$ is attained only if nonregular connected graphs of even order are considered, while the sharp lower bound of $n-1$ is attained by graphs of odd order. We also characterise the nonregular graphs with the second and the third smallest total irregularity.

Let G = (V, E) be an undirected graph where the edges in E have non-negative weights. A star in G is either a single node of G or a subgraph of G where all the edges share one common end-node. A star forest is a collection of vertex-disjoint stars in G. The weight of a star forest is the sum of the weights of its edges. This paper deals with the problem of finding a Maximum Weight Spanning Star Forest (MWSFP) in G. This problem is NP-hard but can be solved in polynomial time when G is a cactus [Nguyen, Discrete Math. Algorithms App. 7 (2015) 1550018]. In this paper, we present a polyhedral investigation of the MWSFP. More precisely, we study the facial structure of the star forest polytope, denoted by SFP(G), which is the convex hull of the incidence vectors of the star forests of G. First, we prove several basic properties of SFP(G) and propose an integer programming formulation for MWSFP. Then, we give a class of facet-defining inequalities, called M-tree inequalities, for SFP(G). We show that for the case when G is a tree, the M-tree and the nonnegativity inequalities give a complete characterization of SFP(G). Finally, based on the description of the dominating set polytope on cycles given by Bouchakour et al. [Eur. J. Combin. 29 (2008) 652–661], we give a complete linear description of SFP(G) when G is a cycle.

Let [Formula: see text] be a k-dimensional vector space over a finite field [Formula: see text] with a basis [Formula: see text]. The nonzero component graph of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is a simple undirected graph with vertex set as nonzero vectors of [Formula: see text] such that there is an edge between two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] if and only if there exists at least one [Formula: see text] along which both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] have nonzero scalars. In this paper, we find the vertex connectivity and girth of [Formula: see text]. We also characterize all vector spaces [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] has genus either 0 or 1 or 2.

Many linear-time graph algorithms using depth-first search have been invented. We propose simplified versions of two such algorithms, for computing a bipolar orientation or st-numbering of an undirected graph and for finding all feedback vertices of a directed graph.

In this paper, we study the connected r-hop k-dominating set problem in wireless networks. We propose two algorithms for the problem. We prove that algorithm I for UDG has (2r + 1)3 approximate ratio for k ≤ (2r + 1)2 and (2r + 1)((2r + 1)2 + 1)-approximate ratio for k > (2r + 1)2. And algorithm II for any undirected graph has (2r + 1) ln (Δr) approximation ratio, where Δr is the largest cardinality among all r-hop neighborhoods in the network. The simulation results show that our algorithms are efficient.

AbstractIn this paper, the complement of max product of two intuitionistic fuzzy graphs is defined. The degree of a vertex in the complement of max product of intuitionistic fuzzy graph is studied. Some results on complement of max product of two regular intuitionistic fuzzy graphs are stated and proved. Finally, we provide an application of intuitionistic fuzzy graphs in school determination using normalized Hamming distance.

: Intercapillary research in mathematics and other pure sciences areas has always helped humanity quantify natural phenomena. This article also contributes to which valency-based topological indices are implemented on tetrahedral sheets of clay minerals. These indices have been used for a long time and are considered the most powerful tools to quantify chemical graphs. The atoms in the chemical compound and the bonds between the atoms are depicted as the graph’s vertices and edges, respectively. The valency (or degree) of a vertex in a graph is the number of edges incident to that vertex. In this article, various degree-based indices and their modifications are determined to check each types’ significance.

The total irregularity index of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined by Abdo et al. [H. Abdo, S. Brandt and D. Dimitrov, The total irregularity of a graph, Discrete Math. Theor. Comput. Sci. 16 (2014) 201–206] as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In 2014, You et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of unicyclic graphs, Ars Comb. 114 (2014) 153–160.] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Unicyclic graphs) and Zhou et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang, Y. X. Zhu and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of bicyclic graphs, J. Appl. Math. 2014 (2014) 785084, http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/785084 ] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Bicyclic graphs). In this paper, we characterize the aforementioned graphs with an alternative but comparatively simple approach. Also, we characterized the graphs having maximum [Formula: see text] value among the classes [Formula: see text] (Tricyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Tetracyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Pentacyclic graphs) and [Formula: see text] (Hexacyclic graphs).

The [Formula: see text]-index of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is defined as the sum of weights [Formula: see text] over all edges [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds of the [Formula: see text]-index (forgotten topological index) over bicyclic graphs, in terms of the order and maximum degree.
