Let $G$ be a group. The order graph of $G$ is the (undirected)graph $Gamma(G)$,those whose vertices are non-trivial subgroups of $G$ and two distinctvertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if and only if either$o(H)|o(K)$ or $o(K)|o(H)$. In this paper, we investigate theinterplay between the group-theoretic properties of $G$ and thegraph-theoretic properties of $Gamma(G)$. For a finite group$G$, we s...

The Macro-star graph which has the star graph as a basic module has node symmetry, maximum fault tolerance, and hierarchical decomposition property. And, it is an interconnection network which improves a network cost against the star graph. A Matrix-star graph also has such a good properties of the Macro-star graph and is an interconnection network which has a lower network cost than the Macro-

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M an R-module. In this paper, we associate a graph to M, sayΓ(RM), such that when M=R, Γ(RM) coincide with the zero-divisor graph of R. Many well-known results by D.F. Anderson and P.S. Livingston have been generalized for Γ(RM). We Will show that Γ(RM) is connected withdiam Γ(RM)≤ 3 and if Γ(RM) contains a cycle, then Γ(RM)≤4. We will also show tha...

an extended star is a tree which has only one vertex with degree larger than two. the -center problem in a graph  asks to find a subset  of the vertices of  of cardinality  such that the maximum weighted distances from  to all vertices is minimized. in this paper we consider the -center problem on the unweighted extended stars, and present some properties to find solution.

let $r$ be a commutative ring with identity and $mathbb{a}(r)$ be the set   of ideals of $r$ with non-zero annihilators. in this paper, we first introduce and investigate the principal ideal subgraph of the annihilating-ideal graph of $r$, denoted by $mathbb{ag}_p(r)$. it is a (undirected) graph with vertices $mathbb{a}_p(r)=mathbb{a}(r)cap mathbb{p}(r)setminus {(0)}$, where   $mathbb{p}(r)$ is...

Bubble-sort, macro-star, and transposition graphs are interconnection networks with the advantages of star graphs in terms of improving the network cost of a hypercube. These graphs contain a star graph as their sub-graph, and have node symmetry, maximum fault tolerance, and recursive partition properties. This study proposes embedding methods for these graphs based on graph definitions, and sh...

Let $G$ be a graph. Let $f:V(G)to{0,1,2, ldots, k-1}$ be a map where $k in mathbb{N}$ and $k>1$. For each edge $uv$, assign the label $left|f(u)-f(v)right|$. $f$ is called a $k$-total difference cordial labeling of $G$ if $left|t_{df}(i)-t_{df}(j)right|leq 1$, $i,j in {0,1,2, ldots, k-1}$ where $t_{df}(x)$ denotes the total number of vertices and the edges labeled with $x$.A graph with admits a...

The (n, k)-star graph is a generalized version of the n-star graph, which belongs to the class of Cayley graphs, and has been recognized as an attractive alternative to an n-cube for building massively parallel computers. Recently, Chen et al. showed that an (n, k)-star graph is 6-weak-vertex-pancyclic for k < n–1, that is, each vertex of an (n, k)-star graph is contained in a cycle of length r...

Many theoretical-based comparison studies, relying on graph structural and algorithmic properties, have been conducted for the hypercube and the star graph. None of these studies, however, have considered real working conditions and implementation limits. We have compared the performance of the star and hypercube networks for different message lengths and number of virtual channels, and conside...
