A vertex x in a connected graph G = (V, E) is said to resolve a pair {u, v} of vertices of G if the distance from u to x is not equal to the distance from v to x. The resolving neighborhood for the pair {u, v} is defined as R{u, v} = {x ∈ V : d(u, x) ≠ d(v, x)}. A real valued function f : V → [0, 1] is a resolving function (RF) of G if f(R{u, v}) ≥ 1 for any two distinct vertices u, v ∈ V. The weight of f is defined by |f| = f(V) = ∑u∈Vf(v). The fractional metric dimension dim f(G) is defined by dim f(G) = min {|f| : f is a resolving function of G}. In this paper, we characterize graphs G for which [Formula: see text]. We also present several results on fractional metric dimension of Cartesian product of two connected graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a family of connected graphs. A spanning subgraph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called an [Formula: see text]-factor (component factor) of [Formula: see text] if each component of [Formula: see text] is in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study the component factors of the Cartesian product of graphs. Here, we take [Formula: see text] and show that every connected graph [Formula: see text] has a [Formula: see text]-factor where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the maximum degree of an induced subgraph [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text]. Also, we characterize graphs [Formula: see text] having a [Formula: see text]-factor.

Abstract The second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of a graph (network) is called its algebraic connectivity which is used to diagnose Alzheimer’s disease, distinguish the group differences, measure the robustness, construct multiplex model, synchronize the stability, analyze the diffusion processes and find the connectivity of the graphs (networks). A connected graph containing two or three cycles is called a bicyclic graph if its number of edges is equal to its number of vertices plus one. In this paper, firstly the unique graph with a minimum algebraic connectivity is characterized in the class of connected graphs whose complements are bicyclic with exactly three cycles. Then, we find the unique graph of minimum algebraic connectivity in the class of connected graphs $\begin{array}{} {\it\Omega}^c_{n}={\it\Omega}^c_{1,n}\cup{\it\Omega}^c_{2,n}, \end{array}$ where $\begin{array}{} {\it\Omega}^c_{1,n} \end{array}$ and $\begin{array}{} {\it\Omega}^c_{2,n} \end{array}$ are classes of the connected graphs in which the complement of each graph of order n is a bicyclic graph with exactly two and three cycles, respectively.

Abstract The general position number of a connected graph is the cardinality of a largest set of vertices such that no three pairwise-distinct vertices from the set lie on a common shortest path. In this paper it is proved that the general position number is additive on the Cartesian product of two trees.

AbstractIn 2011, Beeler and Hoilman generalized the game of peg solitaire to arbitrary connected graphs. In the same article, the authors proved some results on the solvability of Cartesian products, given solvable or distance 2-solvable graphs. We extend these results to Cartesian products of certain unsolvable graphs. In particular, we prove that ladders and grid graphs are solvable and, further, even the Cartesian product of two stars, which in a sense are the “most” unsolvable graphs.

Let l ≥ 1, k ≥ 1 be two integers. Given an edge-coloured connected graph G. A path P in the graph G is called l-rainbow path if each subpath of length at most l + 1 is rainbow. The graph G is called (k, l)-rainbow connected if any two vertices in G are connected by at least k pairwise internally vertex-disjoint l-rainbow paths. The smallest number of colours needed in order to make G (k, l)-rainbow connected is called the (k, l)-rainbow connection number of G and denoted by rck,l(G). In this paper, we first focus to improve the upper bound of the (1, l)-rainbow connection number depending on the size of connected graphs. Using this result, we characterize all connected graphs having the large (1, 2)-rainbow connection number. Moreover, we also determine the (1, l)-rainbow connection number in a connected graph G containing a sequence of cut-edges.

On the great success of bond-additive topological indices like Szeged, Padmakar-Ivan, Zagreb, and irregularity measures, yet another index, the Mostar index, has been introduced recently as a peripherality measure in molecular graphs and networks. For a connected graph G, the Mostar index is defined as $$M_{o}(G)=\displaystyle{\sum\limits_{e=gh\epsilon E(G)}}C(gh),$$ where $C(gh) \,=\,\left|n_{g}(e)-n_{h}(e)\right|$ be the contribution of edge $uv$ and $n_{g}(e)$ denotes the number of vertices of $G$ lying closer to vertex $g$ than to vertex $h$ ($n_{h}(e)$ define similarly). In this paper, we prove a general form of the results obtained by $Do\check{s}li\acute{c}$ et al.\cite{18} for compute the Mostar index to the Cartesian product of two simple connected graph. Using this result, we have derived the Cartesian product of paths, cycles, complete bipartite graphs, complete graphs and to some molecular graphs.

For an ordered subset S = {s1, s2, . . . sk} of vertices in a connected graph G, the metric representation of a vertex u with respect to the set S is the k-vector r(u|S) = (dG(v, s1), dG(v, s2), . . . , dG(v, sk)), where dG(x, y) represents the distance between the vertices x and y. The set S is a metric generator for G if every two different vertices of G have distinct metric representations with respect to S. A minimum metric generator is called a metric basis for G and its cardinality, dim(G), the metric dimension of G. It is well known that the problem of finding the metric dimension of a graph is NP-Hard. In this paper we obtain closed formulae and tight bounds for the metric dimension of strong product graphs.

We expand on Tutte's theory of $3$-blocks for $2$-connected graphs, generalizing it to apply to infinite, locally finite graphs, and giving necessary and sufficient conditions for a labeled tree to be the $3$-block tree of a $2$-connected graph.

The strong local metric dimension is the development result of a strong metric dimension study, one of the study topics in graph theory. Some of graphs that have been discovered about strong local metric dimension are path graph, star graph, complete graph, cycle graphs, and the result corona product graph. In the previous study have been built about strong local metric dimensions of corona product graph. The purpose of this research is to determine the strong local metric dimension of cartesian product graph between any connected graph G and H, denoted by dimsl (G x H). In this research, local metric dimension of G x H is influenced by local strong metric dimension of graph G and local strong metric dimension of graph H. Graph G and graph H has at least two order.
