Let G[F,Vk,Hv] be the graph with k pockets, where F is a simple graph of order n≥1, Vk={v1,v2,…,vk} is a subset of the vertex set of F, Hv is a simple graph of order m≥2, and v is a specified vertex of Hv. Also let G[F,Ek,Huv] be the graph with k edge pockets, where F is a simple graph of order n≥2, Ek={e1,e2,…ek} is a subset of the edge set of F, Huv is a simple graph of order m≥3, and uv is a specified edge of Huv such that Huv-u is isomorphic to Huv-v. In this paper, we derive closed-form formulas for resistance distance and Kirchhoff index of G[F,Vk,Hv] and G[F,Ek,Huv] in terms of the resistance distance and Kirchhoff index F, Hv and F, Huv, respectively.

For a graph G, the resistance distance r G ( x , y ) is defined to be the effective resistance between vertices x and y, the multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff index R ∗ ( G ) = ∑ { x , y } ⊂ V ( G ) d G ( x ) d G ( y ) r G ( x , y ) , where d G ( x ) is the degree of vertex x, and V ( G ) denotes the vertex set of G. L. Feng et al. obtained the element in C a c t ( n ; t ) with first-minimum multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff index. In this paper, we first give some transformations on R ∗ ( G ) , and then, by these transformations, the second-minimum multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff index and the corresponding extremal graph are determined, respectively.

AbstractLet G be a connected graph with vertex set V(G).The degree Kirchhoò index of G is defined as S'(G) = Σ{u,v}⊆V(G) d(u)d(v)R(u, v), where d(u) is the degree of vertex u, and R(u, v) denotes the resistance distance between vertices u and v. In this paper, we characterize the graphs having maximum and minimum degree Kirchhoò index among all n-vertex bicyclic graphs with exactly two cycles.

For a graph G, the graph R(G) of a graph G is the graph obtained by adding a new vertex for each edge of G and joining each new vertex to both end vertices of the corresponding edge. Let I(G) be the set of newly added vertices, i.e I(G) = V(R(G))\ V(G). The generalized R-vertex corona of G and Hi for i = 1, 2, ?,n, denoted by R(G) ?? ^n i=1 Hi, is the graph obtained from R(G) and Hi by joining the i-th vertex of V(G) to every vertex in Hi. The generalized R-edge corona of G and Hi for i = 1, 2, ?,m, denoted by R(G)?^m i=1 Hi, is the graph obtained from R(G) and Hi by joining the i-th vertex of I(G) to every vertex in Hi. In this paper, we derive closed-form formulas for resistance distance and Kirchhoff index of R(G) ?? ^n i=1 Hi and R(G) ? ^m i=1 Hi whenever G and Hi are arbitrary graphs. These results generalize the existing results.

AbstractTwo resistance-distance-based graph invariants, namely, the Kirchhoff index and the additive degree-Kirchhoff index, are studied. A relation between them is established, with inequalities for the additive degree-Kirchhoff index arising via the Kirchhoff index along with minimum, maximum, and average degrees. Bounds for the Kirchhoff and additive degree-Kirchhoff indices are also determined, and extremal graphs are characterised. In addition, an upper bound for the additive degree-Kirchhoff index is established to improve a previously known result.

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. A function $f : V(G) \rightarrow \mathcal{P}(\{1, 2, \dotsc, k\})$ is a \textit{$k$-rainbow dominating function} on $G$ if for each vertex $v \in V(G)$ for which $f(v)= \emptyset$, it holds that $\bigcup_{u \in N(v)}f(u) = \{1, 2, \dotsc, k\}$. The weight of a $k$-rainbow dominating function is the value $\sum_{v \in V(G)}|f(v)|$. The \textit{$k$-rainbow domination number} $\gamma_{rk}(G)$ is the minimum weight of a $k$-rainbow dominating function on $G$. In this paper, we initiate the study of $k$-rainbow domination numbers in middle graphs. We define the concept of a middle $k$-rainbow dominating function, obtain some bounds related to it and determine the middle $3$-rainbow domination number of some classes of graphs. We also provide upper and lower bounds for the middle $3$-rainbow domination number of trees in terms of the matching number. In addition, we determine the $3$-rainbow domatic number for the middle graph of paths and cycles.

For a simple graph G with a vertex set V G and an edge set E G , a labeling f : V G ∪ ​ E G ⟶ 1,2 , ⋯ , k is called a vertex irregular total k − labeling of G if for any two different vertices x and y in V G we have w t x ≠ w t y where w t x = f x + ∑ u ∈ V G f x u . The smallest positive integer k such that G has a vertex irregular total k − labeling is called the total vertex irregularity strength of G , denoted by tvs G . The lower bound of tvs G for any graph G have been found by Baca et. al. In this paper, we determined the exact value of the total vertex irregularity strength of the hexagonal cluster graph on n cluster for n ≥ 2 . Moreover, we show that the total vertex irregularity strength of the hexagonal cluster graph on n cluster is 3 n 2 + 1 / 2 .

In an undirected simple graph, we define connectedness induced by a set of walks of the same lengths. We show that the connectedness is preserved by the strong product of graphs with walk sets. This result is used to introduce a graph on the vertex set Z2 with sets of walks that is obtained as the strong product of a pair of copies of a graph on the vertex set Z with certain walk sets. It is proved that each of the walk sets in the graph introduced induces connectedness on Z2 that satisfies a digital analogue of the Jordan curve theorem. It follows that the graph with any of the walk sets provides a convenient structure on the digital plane Z2 for the study of digital images.

Let [Formula: see text] be a simple graph with vertex set [Formula: see text] and edge set [Formula: see text], respectively. An edge irregular [Formula: see text]-labeling of [Formula: see text] is a labeling of [Formula: see text] with labels from the set [Formula: see text] in such a way that for any two different edges [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], their weights [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are distinct. The weight of an edge [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] is the sum of the labels of the end vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The minimum [Formula: see text] for which the graph [Formula: see text] has an edge irregular [Formula: see text]-labeling is called the edge irregularity strength of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we determine the exact value of edge irregularity strength of corona product of graphs with cycle.
