Two new edge grafting operations on the energy of unicyclic graphs and their applications
نویسنده
چکیده
The energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. The edge grafting operation on a graph is a kind of edge moving between two vertices of the graph. In this paper, we introduce two new edge grafting operations and show how the graph energy changes under these edge grafting operations. Let G(n) be the set of all unicyclic graphs with n vertices. Using these edge grafting operations and the Coulson integral formula for the energy of a monic real polynomial, we characterize the unicyclic graphs with the first to the seventh minimal energies in G(n) (n ≥ 11). © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

The revised edge-Szeged index of a connected graph $G$ is defined as Sze*(G)=∑e=uv∊E(G)( (mu(e|G)+(m0(e|G)/2)(mv(e|G)+(m0(e|G)/2) ), where mu(e|G), mv(e|G) and m0(e|G) are, respectively, the number of edges of G lying closer to vertex u than to vertex v, the number of ed...
متن کاملEdge-grafting Theorems on Permanents of the Laplacian Matrices of Graphs and Their Applications
The trees, respectively unicyclic graphs, on n vertices with the smallest Laplacian permanent are studied. In this paper, by edge-grafting transformations, the n-vertex trees of given bipartition having the second and third smallest Laplacian permanent are identified. Similarly, the n-vertex bipartite unicyclic graphs of given bipartition having the first, second and third smallest Laplacian pe...

متن کاملThe second geometric-arithmetic index for trees and unicyclic graphs
Let $G$ be a finite and simple graph with edge set $E(G)$. The second geometric-arithmetic index is defined as $GA_2(G)=sum_{uvin E(G)}frac{2sqrt{n_un_v}}{n_u+n_v}$, where $n_u$ denotes the number of vertices in $G$ lying closer to $u$ than to $v$. In this paper we find a sharp upper bound for $GA_2(T)$, where $T$ is tree, in terms of the order and maximum degree o...
متن کاملOn exponential domination and graph operations
An exponential dominating set of graph $G = (V,E )$ is a subset $Ssubseteq V(G)$ such that $sum_{uin S}(1/2)^{overline{d}{(u,v)-1}}geq 1$ for every vertex $v$ in $V(G)-S$, where $overline{d}(u,v)$ is the distance between vertices $u in S$ and $v in V(G)-S$ in the graph $G -(S-{u})$. The exponential domination number, $gamma_{e}(G)$, is the smallest cardinality of an exponential dominating set....
