Construction of Graceful Signed Graphs

In this paper, the mathematical problem of automation of encoding a communication/transportation network is considered for enabling design of appropriate plans for ground-troopmovement on a complex terrain that motivated to discuss a general method of constructinginfinite families of graceful signed graphs from a given gracefully numbered signed graph. Thismethod gives graceful numberings for signed graphs on K2 + Ktc, t1, where Gc denotes thecomplement of the graph G

Energy and Wiener Index of Unit Graphs

In this paper, we are giving MATLAB program to find the energy and Wiener index of unit graphs. Our program demonstrates an intrinsic relationship between the elements of ring and structural properties of graphs. The unit graph G(Zn) turns out to be strongly regular when n = 2k. Several new directions for further research are also indicated by means of raising problems

Graceful signed graphs

summary:A $(p,q)$-sigraph $S$ is an ordered pair $(G,s)$ where $G = (V,E)$ is a $(p,q)$-graph and $s$ is a function which assigns to each edge of $G$ a positive or a negative sign. Let the sets $E^+$ and $E^-$ consist of $m$ positive and $n$ negative edges of $G$, respectively, where $m + n = q$. Given positive integers $k$ and $d$, $S$ is said to be $(k,d)$-graceful if the vertices of $G$ can be labeled with distinct integers from the set $\lbrace 0,1,\dots , k + (q-1)d\rbrace$ such that when each edge $uv$ of $G$ is assigned the product of its sign and the absolute difference of the integers assigned to $u$ and $v$ the edges in $E^+$ and $E^-$ are labeled $k, k + d, k + 2d,\dots , k + (m - 1)d$ and $-k, -(k + d), -(k + 2d),\dots ,-(k + (n - 1)d)$, respectively. In this paper, we report results of our preliminary investigation on the above new notion, which indeed generalises the well-known concept of $(k,d)$-graceful graphs due to B. D. Acharya and S. M. Hegde

Restrained domination in signed graphs

A signed graph Σ is a graph with positive or negative signs attatched to each of its edges. A signed graph Σ is balanced if each of its cycles has an even number of negative edges. Restrained dominating set D in Σ is a restrained dominating set of its underlying graph where the subgraph induced by the edges across Σ[D : V \ D] and within V \ D is balanced. The set D having least cardinality is called minimum restrained dominating set and its cardinality is the restrained domination number of Σ denoted by γr(Σ). The ability to communicate rapidly within the network is an important application of domination in social networks. The main aim of this paper is to initiate a study on restrained domination in the realm of different classes of signed graphs
