Reconstructing subgraph-counting graph polynomials of increasing families of graphs

چکیده
A graph polynomial P (G, x) is called reconstructible if it is uniquely determined by the polynomials of the vertex deleted subgraphs of G for every graph G with at least three vertices. In this note it is shown that subgraph-counting graph polynomials of increasing families of graphs are reconstructible if and only if each graph from the corresponding defining family is reconstructible from its polynomial deck. In particular we prove that the cube polynomial is reconstructible. Other reconstructible polynomials are the clique, the path and the independence polynomial. Along the way two new characterizations of hypercubes are obtained.

Counting the number of spanning trees of graphs
A spanning tree of graph G is a spanning subgraph of G that is a tree. In this paper, we focus our attention on (n,m) graphs, where m = n, n + 1, n + 2, n+3 and n + 4. We also determine some coefficients of the Laplacian characteristic polynomial of fullerene graphs.
متن کاملOn the domination polynomials of non P4-free graphs
A graph $G$ is called $P_4$-free, if $G$ does not contain an induced subgraph $P_4$. The domination polynomial of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is the polynomial $D(G,x)=sum_{i=1}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. Every root of $D(G,x)$ is called a domination root of $G$. In this paper we state and prove formula for the domination polynomial of no...
متن کاملSome Families of Graphs whose Domination Polynomials are Unimodal
Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D(G, x)=sum_{i=gamma(G)}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$ and $gamma(G)$ is the domination number of $G$. In this paper we present some families of graphs whose domination polynomials are unimodal.
متن کاملLabeling 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...
