We obtain inequalities involving many topological indices in classical graph products by using the f-polynomial. In particular, we work with lexicographic product, Cartesian sum and Cartesian product, and with first Zagreb, forgotten, inverse degree and sum lordeg indices.

Graph products and their structural properties have been studied extensively by many researchers. We investigate the Laplacian eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the product graphs for the four standard products, namely, the Cartesian product, the direct product, the strong product and the lexicographic product. A complete characterization of Laplacian spectrum of the Cartesian product of two graphs has been done by Merris. We give an explicit complete characterization of the Laplacian spectrum of the lexicographic product of two graphs using the Laplacian spectra of the factors. For the other two products, we describe the complete spectrum of the product graphs in some particular cases. We supply some new results relating to the algebraic connectivity of the product graphs. We describe the characteristic sets for the Cartesian product and for the lexicographic product of two graphs. As an application we construct new classes of Laplacian integral graphs.

The diameter of a graph can be affected by the addition or deletion of edges. In this paper, we examine the Cartesian product of graphs whose diameter increases (decreases) by the deletion (addition) of a single edge. The problems of minimality and maximality of the Cartesian product of graphs with respect to its diameter are also solved. These problems are motivated by the fact that most of the interconnection networks are graph products and a good network must be hard to disrupt and the transmissions must remain connected even if some vertices or edges fail.

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.

This paper studies the 2-distance chromatic number of some graph product. A coloring of [Formula: see text] is 2-distance if any two vertices at distance at most two from each other get different colors. The minimum number of colors in the 2-distance coloring of [Formula: see text] is the 2-distance chromatic number and denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we obtain some upper and lower bounds for the 2-distance chromatic number of the rooted product, generalized rooted product, hierarchical product and we determine exact value for the 2-distance chromatic number of the lexicographic product.

A b-coloring is a proper vertex coloring of a graph such that each color class contains a vertex that has a neighbor in all other color classes and the b-chromatic number is the largest integer φ(G) for which a graph has a b-coloring with φ(G) colors. We determine some upper and lower bounds for the b-chromatic number of the strong product G ⊠ H, the lexicographic product G[H] and the direct product G × H and give some exact values for products of paths, cycles, stars, and complete bipartite graphs. We also show that the b-chromatic number of Pn ⊠ H, Cn ⊠ H, Pn[H], Cn[H], and Km,n[H] can be determined for an arbitrary graph H, when integers m and n are large enough.

A regular nonempty graph $\Gamma$ is called edge regular, whenever there exists a nonegative integer $\lambda_{\Gamma}$, such that any two adjacent vertices of $\Gamma$ have precisely $\lambda_{\Gamma}$ common neighbours. An edge regular graph $\Gamma$ with at least one pair of vertices at distance 2 is called amply regular, whenever there exists a nonegative integer $\mu_{\Gamma}$, such that any two vertices at distance 2 have precisely $\mu_{\Gamma}$ common neighbours. In this paper we classify edge regular graphs, which can be obtained as a strong product, or a lexicographic product, or a deleted lexicographic product, or a co-normal product of two graphs. As a corollary we determine which of these graphs are amply regular.

Graph operations play an important role to constructing complex network structures from simple graphs, and these complex networks play vital roles in different fields such as computer science, chemistry, and social sciences. Computation of topological indices of these complex network structures via graph operation is an important task. In this study, we defined two new variants of graph products, namely, corona join and subdivision vertex join products and investigated exact expressions of the first and second Zagreb indices and first reformulated Zagreb index for these new products.

The third leap Zagreb index of a graph [Formula: see text] is denoted as [Formula: see text] and is defined as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the 2-distance degree and the degree of the vertex [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text], respectively. The first, second and third leap Zagreb indices were introduced by Naji et al. [A. M. Naji, N. D. Soner and I. Gutman, On leap Zagreb indices of graphs, Commun. Combin. Optim. 2(2) (2017) 99–117] in 2017. In this paper, the behavior of the third leap Zagreb index under several graph operations like the Cartesian product, Corona product, neighborhood Corona product, lexicographic product, strong product, tensor product, symmetric difference and disjunction of two graphs is studied.

Wiener index is the first among the long list of topological indices which was used to correlate structural and chemical properties of molecular graphs. In \cite{Eli} M. Eliasi, B. Taeri defined four new sums of graphs based on the subdivision of edges with regard to the cartesian product and computed their Wiener index. In this paper, we define a new class of sums called $F_H$ sums and compute the Wiener index of the resulting graph in terms of the Wiener indices of the component graphs so that the results in \cite{Eli} becomes a particular case of the Wiener index of $F_H$ sums for $H = K_1$, the complete graph on a single vertex.
