To obtain evidence linking long-term potentiation (LTP) and memory, we examined whether LTP induction modifies functional relationship among neurons in the rat hippocampus. In contrast to neurons in low-frequency stimulated or AP5-treated slices, LTP induction altered 'functional connectivity,' as defined by the degree of synchronous firing, among simultaneously recorded neurons in the CA3 regi...

Abstract In this note, we show a sharp lower bound of $$\min \left\{{\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^k {{d_G}({u_i}):{u_1}{u_2} \ldots {u_k}}} \right.$$ min { ∑ i = 1 k </mml:msubs...

Many existing degree based topological indices can be clasified as bond incident degree (BID) indices, whose general form is BID(G) = ∑ uv∈E(G) Ψ(du, dv), where uv is the edge connecting the vertices u, v of the graph G, E(G) is the edge set of G, du is the degree of the vertex u and Ψ is a non-negative real valued (symmetric) function of du and dv. Here, it has been proven that if the extensio...

The use of graph theory can be visualized in nanochemistry, computer networks, Google maps, and molecular which are common areas to elaborate application this subject. In a numeric number (topological index) is used estimate the biological, physical, structural properties chemical compounds that associated with graph. paper, we compute first second multiplicative Zagreb indices ( <math xmlns="h...

The eccentric connectivity index ξ is a novel distance–based molecular structure descriptor that was recently used for mathematical modeling of biological activities of diverse nature. It is defined as ξ(G) = ∑ v∈V (G) deg(v) · ε(v) , where deg(v) and ε(v) denote the vertex degree and eccentricity of v , respectively. We survey some mathematical properties of this index and furthermore support ...

Let G be a simple connected graph and di be the degree of its ith vertex. In a recent paper [D. Vukičević, B. Furtula, Topological index based on the ratios of geometrical and arithmetical means of end-vertex degrees of edges, J. Math. Chem. 46 (2009) 1369–1376] the ‘‘first geometric–arithmetic index’’ of a graph Gwas defined as GA1 = − di dj (di + dj)/2 with summation going over all pairs of ...

the corona product $gcirc h$ of two graphs $g$ and $h$ isobtained by taking one copy of $g$ and $|v(g)|$ copies of $h$;and by joining each vertex of the $i$-th copy of $h$ to the$i$-th vertex of $g$, where $1 leq i leq |v(g)|$. in thispaper, exact formulas for the eccentric distance sum and the edgerevised szeged indices of the corona product of graphs arepresented. we also study the conditions...

Topological indices are the mathematical tools that correlate the chemical structure with various physical properties, chemical reactivity or biological activity numerically. A topological index is a function having a set of graphs as its domain and a set of real numbers as its range. In QSAR/QSPR study, a prediction about the bioactivity of chemical compounds is made on the basis of physico-ch...

The Wiener index, denoted byW (G), of a connected graph G is the sum of all pairwise distances of vertices of the graph, that is, W (G) = 1 2 ∑ u,v∈V (G) d(u, v). In this paper, we obtain the Wiener index of the tensor product of a path and a cycle.
