We consider the minimum order of a graph G with a given lazy cop number $c_L(G)$. Sullivan, Townsend and Werzanski [7] showed that the minimum order of a connected graph with lazy cop number 3 is 9 and $k_3{\square}k_3$ is the unique graph on nine vertices which requires three lazy cops. They conjectured that for a graph G on n vertices with ${\Delta}(G){\geq}n-k^2$, $c_L(G){\leq}k$. We proved that the conjecture is true for k = 4. Furthermore, we showed that the Petersen graph is the unique connected graph G on 10 vertices with ${\Delta}(G){\leq}3$ having lazy cop number 3 and the minimum order of a connected graph with lazy cop number 4 is 16.

In this note we present a short proof of the following result by Zhou, Liu and Xu. Let G be a graph of order n, and let a and b be two integers with 1 $\leq$ a < b and b $\geq$ 3, and let g and f be two integer-valued functions defined on V(G) such that a $\leq$ g(x) < f(x) $\leq$ b for each $x\;{\in}\;V(G)$ and f(V(G)) - V(G) even. If $n\;{\geq}\;\frac{(a+b-1)^2+1}{a}$ and $\delta(G)\;{\geq}\;\frac{(b-1)n}{a+b-1}$,then G has a connected (g, f)-factor.

In this paper, we consider the problem of scheduling sensor activity to prolong the network lifetime while guaranteeing both discrete target coverage and connectivity among all the active sensors and the sink, called connected target coverage (CTC) problem. We proposed a distributed scheme called Distributed Lifetime-Maximizing Scheme (DLMS) to solve the CTC problem. Our proposed scheme significantly reduces the cost of the construction of the connected cover graphs in comparison with the some conventional schemes. In addition, the energy consumption is more balanced so that the network lifetime will be increased. Our simulation results show that DLMS scheme performs much better than the conventional schemes in terms of the network lifetime.

For a connected graph G of order $n$, an ordered set $S=\{u_1,u_2,{\cdots},u_k\}$ of vertices in G is a linear edge geodetic set of G if for each edge $e=xy$ in G, there exists an index $i$, $1{\leq}i$ < $k$ such that e lie on a $u_i-u_{i+1}$ geodesic in G, and a linear edge geodetic set of minimum cardinality is the linear edge geodetic number $leg(G)$ of G. A graph G is called a linear edge geodetic graph if it has a linear edge geodetic set. The linear edge geodetic numbers of certain standard graphs are obtained. Let $g_l(G)$ and $eg(G)$ denote the linear geodetic number and the edge geodetic number, respectively of a graph G. For positive integers $r$, $d$ and $k{\geq}2$ with $r$ < $d{\leq}2r$, there exists a connected linear edge geodetic graph with rad $G=r$, diam $G=d$, and $g_l(G)=leg(G)=k$. It is shown that for each pair $a$, $b$ of integers with $3{\leq}a{\leq}b$, there is a connected linear edge geodetic graph G with $eg(G)=a$ and $leg(G)=b$.

The atom-bond connectivity index of a graph G (ABC index for short) is defined as the summation of quantities $\sqrt{\frac{d(u)+d(v)-2}{d(u)d(v)}}$ over all edges of G. A cactus graph is a connected graph in which every block is an edge or a cycle. The aim of this paper is to obtain the first and second maximum values of the ABC index among all n vertex cactus graphs.

In this paper, we prove the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions to nonlinear discrete boundary value problems $$\{^{-{\Delta}_{p,{\omega}}u(x)+V(x){\mid}u(x){\mid}^{q-2}u(x)=f(x,u(x)),x{\in}S,}_{u(x)=0,\;x{\in}{\partial}S}$$, involving the discrete p-Laplacian on simple, nite and connected graphs $\bar{S}(S{\cup}{\partial}S,E)$ with weight ${\omega}$, where 1 < q < p < ${\infty}$. The approach is based on a suitable combine of variational and truncations methods.

Let G be a chemical graph with vertex set {v₁, v₁, …, v_n} and degree sequence d(G) = (deg_G(v₁), deg_G(v₂), …, deg_G(v_n)). The inverse degree, R(G) of G is defined as $R(G)={\sum{_{i=1}^{n}}}\;{\frac{1}{deg_G(v_i)}}$. The cyclomatic number of G is defined as γ = m - n + k, where m, n and k are the number of edges, vertices and components of G, respectively. In this paper, some upper bounds on the diameter of a chemical graph in terms of its inverse degree are given. We also obtain an ordering of connected chemical graphs with respect to the inverse degree.

For a finite commutative ring R with identity 1 ≠ 0, the zero divisor graph ��(R) is a simple connected graph having vertex set as the set of nonzero zero divisors of R, where two vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if xy = 0. We find the signless Laplacian spectrum of the zero divisor graphs ��(ℤn) for various values of n. Also, we find signless Laplacian spectrum of ��(ℤn) for n = pz, z ≥ 2, in terms of signless Laplacian spectrum of its components and zeros of the characteristic polynomial of an auxiliary matrix. Further, we characterise n for which zero divisor graph ��(ℤn) are signless Laplacian integral.

The one-sided fattenings (called semi-ribbon graph in this paper) of the graph embedded in the real projective plane ℝℙ² are completely classified up to topological equivalence. A planar graph (i.e., embedded in the plane), admitting the one-sided fattening, is known to be a cactus boundary. For the graphs embedded in ℝℙ² admitting the one-sided fattening, unlike the planar graphs, a new building block appears: a bracelet along the Möbius band, which is not a connected summand of the oriented surfaces.

Zhai and Lin recently proved that if G is an n-vertex connected 𝜃(1, 2, r + 1)-free graph, then for odd r and n ⩾ 10r, or for even r and n ⩾ 7r, one has ${\rho}(G){\leq}{\sqrt{{\lfloor}{\frac{n^2}{4}}{\rfloor}}}$, and equality holds if and only if G is $K_{{\lceil}{\frac{n}{2}}{\rceil},{\lfloor}{\frac{n}{2}}{\rfloor}}$. In this paper, for large enough n, we prove a sharp upper bound for the spectral radius in an n-vertex H-free non-bipartite graph, where H is 𝜃(1, 2, 3) or 𝜃(1, 2, 4), and we characterize all the extremal graphs. Furthermore, for n ⩾ 137, we determine the maximum number of edges in an n-vertex 𝜃(1, 2, 4)-free non-bipartite graph and characterize the unique extremal graph.
