The energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. The edge grafting operation on a graph is certain kind of edge moving between two pendant paths starting from the same vertex. In this paper we show how the graph energy changes under the edge graftin
The edges of the Cartesian product of graphs G x H a r e to be colored with the condition that all rectangles, i.e., K2 x K2 subgraphs, must be colored with four distinct colors. The minimum number of colors in such colorings is determined for all pairs of graphs except when G is 5-chromatic and H
It was shown (Kronk and Mitchen, 1973) that the set of vertices, edges and faces of any normal map on the sphere can be colored with seven colors. In this paper we solve a somewhat different problem: the set of edges and faces of any plane graph with A ~< 3 can be colored by six colors.
## Abstract Let __G__ be an undirected graph without multiple edges and with a loop at every vertexβthe set of edges of __G__ corresponds to a reflexive and symmetric binary relation on its set of vertices. Then __every edgeβpreserving map of the set of vertices of G to itself fixes an edge__ [{__f
