This paper aims to analyze the decision-making processes in which the interactions between objects belonging to two different universe sets are desired to be determined. In this direction, first of all, the concepts of object interaction and inverse object interaction sets for two different universe sets are defined. In addition, considering binary...
This research paper focuses on the computation and analysis of molecular descriptors or topological indices for a generalised Kneser-type bi-partite graph called bipartite Kneser B type-k graph denoted by H B (n, k). Topological indices are formulae that are obtained from graph connectivity patterns and are used to summarise and compress the data t...

Let G be a connected graph and S be a k element subset of the vertex set V(G) of G. Steiner distance is a natural generalization of the usual graph distance. The Steiner-k distance dG(S) between the vertices of S is the minimum size among all connected subgraphs whose vertex set contains S. The generalized indices based on Steiner distan...
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and investigate the atom bond-connectivity energy ABCE(G) of a graph G. We present some upper and lower bounds for ABCE(G) and calculate it for several graph classes and also for some graphs with one edge deleted which enables us to calculate this index for larger graphs by means of smaller graphs. Also ABC...

In graph theory, M polynomials like the matching polynomial are very crucial in examining the matching structures within graphs, while NM polynomials extends this to analyze non-matching edges. These polynomials are important in many fields, including chemistry and network architecture. They support the derivation of topological indices...
Let G be a finite order graph. Its resolvent matrix and its resolvent energy are respectively given by R ξ (A(G)) = (A(G)-ξI)-1 and ER(G) = Σ n i = 1 (n-λ i)-1. For some classes of weighted graphs, we know that λ 1 = n which means that the formula for ER(G) is not applicable. In this work, the pseudo-resolvent energy for those classes of graphs are...

The sum of the absolute values of all the eigenvalues of the a...
M polynomials and NM polynomials are integral concepts in polynomial graph theory. M polynomials, like the matching polynomial, provide insights into matching structures in graphs, while NM polynomials extend this to non-matching edges. These tools are crucial in understanding graph properties and are applied in diverse fields such as network desig...

The stress of a vertex in a graph had been introduced by Shimbel in 1953 as the number of geodesics (shortest paths) passing through it. A topological index of a chemical structure (molecular graph) is a number that correlates given chemical structure with a chemical reactivity or physical property. In this paper, we introduce two new topological i...
