PI polynomials of product graphs

The PI index of product graphs

The Padmakar–Ivan index of a graph G is the sum over all edges uv of G of number of edges which are not equidistant from u and v. In this work, an exact expression for the PI index of the Cartesian product of bipartite graphs is computed. Using this formula, the PI indices of C4 nanotubes and nanotori are computed. c © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Computing PI and Hyper–Wiener Indices of Corona Product of some Graphs

Let G and H be two graphs. The corona product G o H is obtained by taking one copy of G and |V(G)| copies of H; and by joining each vertex of the i-th copy of H to the i-th vertex of G, i = 1, 2, …, |V(G)|. In this paper, we compute PI and hyper–Wiener indices of the corona product of graphs.

Computing the First and Third Zagreb Polynomials of Cartesian Product of Graphs

Let G be a graph. The first Zagreb polynomial M1(G, x) and the third Zagreb polynomial M3(G, x) of the graph G are defined as:     ( ) ( , ) [ ] e uv E G G x x d(u) + d(v) M1 , ( , )  euvE(G) G x x|d(u) - d(v)| M3 . In this paper, we compute the first and third Zagreb polynomials of Cartesian product of two graphs and a type of dendrimers.

Vertex and edge PI indices of Cartesian product graphs

The Padmakar-Ivan (PI) index of a graph G is the sum over all edges uv of G of the number of edges which are not equidistant from u and v. In this paper, the notion of vertex PI index of a graph is introduced. We apply this notion to compute an exact expression for the PI index of Cartesian product of graphs. This extends a result by Klavzar [On the PI index: PI-partitions and Cartesian product...
