We define a subdivision network Γ of a given network Γ, by inserting a new vertex in every edge, so that each edge is replaced by two new edges with conductances that fulfill electrical conditions on the new network. In this work, we firstly obtain an expression for the Green kernel of the subdivision network in terms of the Green kernel of the base network. Moreover, we also obtain the effecti...

The k-th semi-total point graph R(G) of a graph G, is a graph obtained from G by adding k vertices corresponding to each edge and connecting them to the endpoints of the edge considered. In this paper, we obtain formulas for the resistance distance and Kirchhoff index of R(G).

The fundamental relationship between matrices over the rational numbers and a newly defined type of graph, a Kirchhoff graph, is discussed. For a given matrix, a Kirchhoff graph for that matrix represents the orthogonal complementarity of the null and row spaces of the matrix. A number of basic results are proven, and then a relatively complicated Kirchhoff graph is constructed for a matrix tha...
