A systematic method of identification of all possible structural isomers consistent with a given empirical formula is described. The method, embodied in a computer program, generates a complete list of isomers. Duplicate structures are avoided prospectively.
Let G be a graph. The gamma graph of G denoted by γ ⋅ G is the graph with vertex set V(γ ⋅ G) as the set of all γ-sets of G and two vertices D and S of γ ⋅ G are adjacent if and only if |D ∩ S| = γ(G) – 1. A graph H is said to be a γ-graph if there exists a graph G such that γ ⋅ G is isomorphic to H. In this paper, we show that every induced subgraph of a γ-graph is also a γ-graph. Furthermore, if we prove that H is a γ-graph, then there exists a sequence {Gn} of non-isomorphic graphs such that H = γ ⋅ Gn for every n.
For a simple connected undirected graph G, the Wiener index W (G) is defined as half the sum of all distances of the form d (u, v), where the summation is over all possible vertex pairs u, v in G. Assuming that G has more than one cut-vertex, we obtain an expression for W (G) in terms of the Wiener indices of the blocks of G and other quantities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
