Genus distribution of graphs under surgery: adding edges and splitting vertices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our concern is deriving genus distributions of graphs obtained by surgical operations on graphs whose genus distribution is known. One operation in focus here is adding an edge. The other is splitting a vertex, for which the inverse operation is edge-contraction. Our main result is this Splitting Theorem: Let G be a graph and w a 4-valent vertex of G. Let H1, H2, and H3 be the three graphs into which G can be split at w, so that the two new vertices of each split are 3-valent. Then 2gd(G) = gd(H1) + gd(H2) + gd(H3).

$Z_k$-Magic Labeling of Some Families of Graphs
For any non-trivial abelian group A under addition a graph $G$ is said to be $A$-textit{magic} if there exists a labeling $f:E(G) rightarrow A-{0}$ such that, the vertex labeling $f^+$ defined as $f^+(v) = sum f(uv)$ taken over all edges $uv$ incident at $v$ is a constant. An $A$-textit{magic} graph $G$ is said to be $Z_k$-magic graph if the group $A$ is $Z_k$ the group of integers modulo $k...
متن کاملOn reverse degree distance of unicyclic graphs
The reverse degree distance of a connected graph $G$ is defined in discrete mathematical chemistry as [ r (G)=2(n-1)md-sum_{uin V(G)}d_G(u)D_G(u), ] where $n$, $m$ and $d$ are the number of vertices, the number of edges and the diameter of $G$, respectively, $d_G(u)$ is the degree of vertex $u$, $D_G(u)$ is the sum of distance between vertex $u$ and all other vertices of $G$, and $V(G)$ is the...
متن کاملTotal domination in $K_r$-covered graphs
The inflation $G_{I}$ of a graph $G$ with $n(G)$ vertices and $m(G)$ edges is obtained from $G$ by replacing every vertex of degree $d$ of $G$ by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph $K_{d}$, and each edge $(x_{i},x_{j})$ of $G$ is replaced by an edge $(u,v)$ in such a way that $uin X_{i}$, $vin X_{j}$, and two different edges of $G$ are replaced by non-adjacent edges of $G_{I}$. T...
متن کاملFurther results on total mean cordial labeling of graphs
A graph G = (V,E) with p vertices and q edges is said to be a total mean cordial graph if there exists a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that f(xy) = [(f(x)+f(y))/2] where x, y ∈ V (G), xy ∈ E(G), and the total number of 0, 1 and 2 are balanced. That is |evf (i) − evf (j)| ≤ 1, i, j ∈ {0, 1, 2} where evf (x) denotes the total number of vertices and edges labeled with x (x = 0, 1, 2). In thi...
متن کاملStrength of strongest dominating sets in fuzzy graphs
A set S of vertices in a graph G=(V,E) is a dominating set ofG if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex of S.For an integer k≥1, a set S of vertices is a k-step dominating set if any vertex of $G$ is at distance k from somevertex of S. In this paper, using membership values of vertices and edges in fuzzy graphs, we introduce the concepts of strength of strongestdominating set as well a...
