چکیده

The energy of a molecular graph G is defined as the summation of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of adjacency matrix of a graph G. In this paper, an infinite class of fullerene graphs with 10n vertices, n ≥ 2, is considered. By proving centrosymmetricity of the adjacency matrix of these fullerene graphs, a lower bound for its energy is given. Our method is general and can be extended to other class of fullerene graphs.

On Zagreb Energy and edge-Zagreb energy

In this paper, we obtain some upper and lower bounds for the general extended energy of a graph. As an application, we obtain few bounds for the (edge) Zagreb energy of a graph. Also, we deduce a relation between Zagreb energy and edge-Zagreb energy of a graph $G$ with minimum degree $delta ge2$. A lower and upper bound for the spectral radius of the edge-Zagreb matrix is obtained. Finally, we ...

Geometric-Arithmetic Index of Hamiltonian Fullerenes

A graph that contains a Hamiltonian cycle is called a Hamiltonian graph. In this paper we compute the first and the second geometric – arithmetic indices of Hamiltonian graphs. Then we apply our results to obtain some bounds for fullerene.

Minimum Tenacity of Toroidal graphs

The tenacity of a graph G, T(G), is dened by T(G) = min{[|S|+τ(G-S)]/[ω(G-S)]}, where the minimum is taken over all vertex cutsets S of G. We dene τ(G - S) to be the number of the vertices in the largest component of the graph G - S, and ω(G - S) be the number of components of G - S.In this paper a lower bound for the tenacity T(G) of a graph with genus γ(G) is obtained using the graph's connec...

The lower bound for the number of 1-factors in generalized Petersen graphs

‎In this paper‎, ‎we investigate the number of 1-factors of a‎ ‎generalized Petersen graph $P(N,k)$ and get a lower bound for the‎ ‎number of 1-factors of $P(N,k)$ as $k$ is odd‎, ‎which shows that the‎ ‎number of 1-factors of $P(N,k)$ is exponential in this case and‎ ‎confirms a conjecture due to Lovász and Plummer (Ann‎. ‎New York Acad‎. ‎Sci‎. ‎576(2006)‎, ‎no‎. ‎1‎, ‎389-398).

On strongly 2-multiplicative graphs

In this paper we obtain an upper bound and also a lower bound for maximum edges of strongly 2 multiplicative graphs of order n. Also we prove that triangular ladder the graph obtained by duplication of an arbitrary edge by a new vertex in path and the graphobtained by duplicating all vertices by new edges in a path and some other graphs are strongly 2 multiplicative
