The thrust of this paper is to extend the notion of Plithogenic vertex domination to the basic operations in Plithogenic product fuzzy graphs (PPFGs). When the graph is a complete PPFG, Plithogenic vertex domination numbers (PVDNs) of its Plithogenic complement and perfect Plithogenic complement are the same, since the connectivities are the same in both the graphs. Since extra edges are added to the graph in the case of perfect Plithogenic complement, the PVDN of perfect Plithogenic complement is always less than or equal to that of Plithogenic complement, when the graph under consideration is an incomplete PPFG. The maximum and minimum values of the PVDN of the intersection or the union of PPFGs depend upon the attribute values given to P-vertices, the number of attribute values and the connectivities in the corresponding PPFGs. The novelty in this study is the investigation of the variations and the relations between PVDNs in the operations of Plithogenic complement, perfect Plithogenic complement, union and intersection of PPFGs.

The main aim of this study is to characterize new classes of multicone graphs which are determined by their adjacency spectra, their Laplacian spectra, their complement with respect to signless Laplacian spectra and their complement with respect to their adjacency spectra. A multicone graph is defined to be the join of a clique and a regular graph. If n is a positive integer, a friendship graph $F_n$ consists of n edge-disjoint triangles that all of them meet in one vertex. It is proved that any connected graph cospectral to a multicone graph $F_n{\nabla}F_n=K_2{\nabla}nK_2{\nabla}nK_2$ is determined by its adjacency spectra as well as its Laplacian spectra. In addition, we show that if $n{\neq}2$, the complement of these graphs are determined by their adjacency spectra. At the end of the paper, it is proved that multicone graphs $F_n{\nabla}F_n=K_2{\nabla}nK_2{\nabla}nK_2$ are determined by their signless Laplacian spectra and also we prove that any graph cospectral to one of multicone graphs $F_n{\nabla}F_n$ is perfect.

This paper deals with the λ-labeling and L(2, 1)-coloring of simple graphs. A λ-labeling of a graph G is any labeling of the vertices of G with different labels such that any two adjacent vertices receive labels which differ at least two. Also an L(2, 1)-coloring of G is any labeling of the vertices of G such that any two adjacent vertices receive labels which differ at least two and any two vertices with distance two receive distinct labels. Assume that a partial λ-labeling f is given in a graph G. A general question is whether f can be extended to a λ-labeling of G. We show that the extension is feasible if and only if a Hamiltonian path consistent with some distance constraints exists in the complement of G. Then we consider line graph of bipartite multigraphs and determine the minimum number of labels in L(2, 1)-coloring and λ-labeling of these graphs. In fact we obtain easily computable formulas for the path covering number and the maximum path of the complement of these graphs. We obtain a polynomial time algorithm which generates all Hamiltonian paths in the related graphs. A special case is the Cartesian product graph K_n☐K_n and the generation of λ-squares.

A clique-transversal set D of a graph G is a set of vertices of G such that D meets all cliques of G. The clique-transversal number is the minimum cardinality of a clique-transversal set in G. For every cubic graph with at most two bridges, we first show that it has a perfect matching which contains exactly one edge of each triangle of it; by the result, we determine the exact value of the clique-transversal number of line graph of it. Also, we present a sharp upper bound on the clique-transversal number of line graph of a cubic graph. Furthermore, we prove that the clique-transversal number of line graph of a triangle-free graph is at most the chromatic number of complement of the triangle-free graph.

A graph G is self-complementary (sc) if it is isomorphic to its complement. G is perfect if for all induced subgraphs H of G, the chromatic number of H (denoted ${\chi}$(H)) equals the number of vertices in the largest clique in H (denoted ${\omega}$(H)). An sc graph which is also perfect is known as sc perfect graph. A comparability graph is an undirected graph if it can be oriented into transitive directed graph. An sc comparability (scc) is clearly a subclass of sc perfect graph. In this paper we show that no two non-isomorphic scc graphs with n vertices each, (n<13) have same spectrum, and that the smallest positive integer for which there exists hyper-energetic scc graph is 13.

Let G be a simple graph and let G denote its complement. We say that $\bar{G}$ is integral if its spectrum consists of integral values. In this work we establish a characterization of integral graphs which belong to the class $\bar{{\alpha}K_{a,a}\cup{\beta}K_{b,b}}$, where mG denotes the m-fold union of the graph G.

A graph G is called a well covered graph if every maximal independent set in G is maximum, and co-well covered graph if its complement is a well covered graph. We study some properties of a co-well covered graph and we characterize when the join, the corona product, and cartesian product are co-well covered graphs. Also we characterize when powers of trees and cycles are co-well covered graphs. The line graph of a graph which is co-well covered is also studied.

A subset S of V(G), where G is a simple undirected graph, is a hop dominating set if for each v ∈ V(G)＼S, there exists w ∈ S such that d_G(v, w) = 2 and it is a locating-hop set if N_G(v, 2) ∩ S ≠ N_G(v, 2) ∩ S for any two distinct vertices u, v ∈ V(G)＼S. A set S ⊆ V(G) is a locating-hop dominating set if it is both a locating-hop and a hop dominating set of G. The minimum cardinality of a locating-hop dominating set of G, denoted by 𝛄_lh(G), is called the locating-hop domination number of G. In this paper, we investigate some properties of this newly defined parameter. In particular, we characterize the locating-hop dominating sets in graphs under some binary operations.

Recently, interval-valued fuzzy graph is a growing research topic as it is the generalization of fuzzy graphs. The interval-valued fuzzy graphs are more flexible and compatible than fuzzy graphs due to the fact that they allowed the degree of membership of a vertex to an edge to be represented by interval values in [0.1] rather than the crisp values between 0 and 1. In this paper, we introduce the concepts of regular and totally regular interval-valued fuzzy graphs and discusses some properties of the ${\mu}$-complement of interval-valued fuzzy graph. Self ${\mu}$-complementary interval-valued fuzzy graphs and self-weak ${\mu}$-complementary interval-valued fuzzy graphs are defined and a necessary condition for an interval valued fuzzy graph to be self ${\mu}$-complementary is discussed. We define busy vertices and free vertices in interval valued fuzzy graph and study their image under an isomorphism.

For a finite simplicial graph 𝚪, let G(𝚪) denote the right-angled Artin group on the complement graph of 𝚪. For path graphs P_k, cycle graphs C_ℓ and complete bipartite graphs K_n,m, this article characterizes the embeddability of G(K_n,m) in G(P_k) and in G(C_ℓ).
