Feature selection is an important topic that has been widely studied in data science.

Let $G$ be a graph and let $m_{i,j}(G)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $G$ such that ${d_v(G), d_u(G)} = {i,j}$. The $M$-polynomial of $G$ is $M(G;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{i,j}(G)x^iy^j$. With $M(G;x,y)$ in hands, numerous degree-based topological indices of $G$ can be routinely computed. In this note a formula for the $M$-polynomial of planar (chemical) graphs which have only vertices...

Let G(V;E) be a graph. The common neighborhood graph (congraph) of G is a graph with vertex set V , in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they have a common neighbor in G. In this paper, we obtain characteristics of congraphs under graph operations; Graph :::::union:::::, Graph cartesian product, Graph tensor product, and Graph join, and relations between Cayley graphs and its c...

The conditions for diffusion-driven (Turing) instabilities in systems with two reactive species are well known. General methods for detecting potential Turing bifurcations in larger reaction schemes are, on the other hand, not well developed. We prove a theorem for a graph-theoretic condition originally given by Volpert and Ivanova [Mathematical Modeling (Nauka, Moscow, 1987) (in Russian), p. 5...

The Wiener index of a graph is defined as the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices in a connected graph. Wiener index correlates well with many physio chemical properties of organic compounds and as such has been well studied over the last quarter of a century. In this paper we prove some general results on Wiener Index for graphs using degree sequence.

Let G = (V,E) be a simple graph with n = |V | vertices and m = |E| edges; let d1, d2, . . . , dn denote the degrees of the vertices of G. If ∆ = max i di ≤ 4, G is a chemical graph. The first and second Zagreb indices are defined as M1 = ∑

Graph transformations which preserve the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero in the spectrum are known since 1970s and are of importance in chemical applications. We now show that analogous transformations hold for all graph eigenvalues that are of the form 2 cos rn, where Y is a rational number, 0 < r < 1.
