چکیده

For a graph G = (V, E) and a coloring f : V (G) → Z 2 let vf (i) = |f−1(i)|. f is said to be friendly if |vf (1)−vf (0)| ≤ 1. The coloring f : V (G) → Z 2 induces an edge labeling f∗ : E(G) → Z 2 defined by f∗(xy) = f(x) + f(y) ∀xy ∈ E(G), where the summation is done in Z 2. Let ef (i) = |f∗−1(i)|. The friendly index set of the graph G, denoted by FI(G), is defined by FI(G) = {|ef (1)− ef (0)| : f is a friendly vertx labeling of G }. In this paper we will determine the friendly index set of certain classes of trees, which in turn will verify the validity of the conjecture that the elements of friendly index set of any tree form an arithmetic progression.

On a Conjecture Concerning the Friendly Index Sets of Trees

For a graph G = (V,E) and a binary labeling f : V (G) → Z2, let vf (i) = |f−1(i)|. The labling f is said to be friendly if |vf (1)−vf (0)| ≤ 1. Any vertex labeling f : V (G) → Z2 induces an edge labeling f∗ : E(G) → Z2 defined by f∗(xy) = |f(x)− f(y)|. Let ef (i) = |f∗−1(i)|. The friendly index set of the graph G, denoted by FI(G), is defined by FI(G) = {|ef (1)− ef (0)| : f is a friendly verte...

Labeling Subgraph Embeddings and Cordiality of Graphs

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$, a vertex labeling $f : V(G)rightarrow mathbb{Z}_2$ induces an edge labeling $ f^{+} : E(G)rightarrow mathbb{Z}_2$ defined by $f^{+}(xy) = f(x) + f(y)$, for each edge $ xyin E(G)$.  For each $i in mathbb{Z}_2$, let $ v_{f}(i)=|{u in V(G) : f(u) = i}|$ and $e_{f^+}(i)=|{xyin E(G) : f^{+}(xy) = i}|$. A vertex labeling $f$ of a graph $G...

On trees and the multiplicative sum Zagreb index

For a graph $G$ with edge set $E(G)$, the multiplicative sum Zagreb index of $G$ is defined as$Pi^*(G)=Pi_{uvin E(G)}[d_G(u)+d_G(v)]$, where $d_G(v)$ is the degree of vertex $v$ in $G$.In this paper, we first introduce some graph transformations that decreasethis index. In application, we identify the fourteen class of trees, with the first through fourteenth smallest multiplicative sum Zagreb ...

Optimal Self-healing of Smart Distribution Grids Based on Spanning Trees to Improve System Reliability

In this paper, a self-healing approach for smart distribution network is presented based on Graph theory and cut sets. In the proposed Graph theory based approach, the upstream grid and all the existing microgrids are modeled as a common node after fault occurrence. Thereafter, the maneuvering lines which are in the cut sets are selected as the recovery path for alternatives networks by making ...

The eccentric connectivity index of bucket recursive trees

If $G$ is a connected graph with vertex set $V$, then the eccentric connectivity index of $G$, $xi^c(G)$, is defined as $sum_{vin V(G)}deg(v)ecc(v)$ where $deg(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ and $ecc(v)$ is its eccentricity. In this paper we show some convergence in probability and an asymptotic normality based on this index in random bucket recursive trees.
