Abstract Reliability evaluation of interconnection networks is of significant importance to the design and maintenance of interconnection networks. The component connectivity is an important parameter for the reliability evaluation of interconnection networks and is a generalization of the traditional connectivity. The $g$-component connectivity $c\kappa _g (G)$ of a non-complete connected graph $G$ is the minimum number of vertices whose deletion results in a graph with at least $g$ components. Determining the $g$-component connectivity is still an unsolved problem in many interconnection networks. Let $Q_{n,k}$ ($1\leq k\leq n-1$) denote the $(n, k)$-enhanced hypercube. In this paper, let $n\geq 7$ and $1\leq k \leq n-5$, we determine $c\kappa _{g}(Q_{n,k}) = g(n + 1) - \frac{1}{2}g(g + 1) + 1$ for $2 \leq g \leq n$. The previous result in Zhao and Yang (2019, Conditional connectivity of folded hypercubes. Discret. Appl. Math., 257, 388–392) is extended.

The [Formula: see text]-dimensional augmented cube [Formula: see text], proposed by Choudum and Sunitha in 2002, is one of the most famous interconnection networks of the distributed parallel system. Reliability evaluation of underlying topological structures is vital for fault tolerance analysis of this system. As one of the most extensively studied parameters, the [Formula: see text]-conditional edge-connectivity of a connected graph [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], is defined as the minimum number of the cardinality of the edge-cut of [Formula: see text], if exists, whose removal disconnects this graph and keeps each component of [Formula: see text] having minimum degree at least [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be three integers, where [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we determine the exact value of the [Formula: see text]-conditional edge-connectivity of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for each positive integer [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], and give an affirmative answer to Shinde and Borse’s corresponding conjecture on this topic in [On edge-fault tolerance in augmented cubes, J. Interconnection Netw. 20(4) (2020), DOI:10.1142/S0219265920500139].

Fault tolerance is an important issue in interconnection networks, and the traditional edge connectivity is an important measure to evaluate the robustness of an interconnection network. The component edge connectivity is a generalization of the traditional edge connectivity. The [Formula: see text]-component edge connectivity [Formula: see text] of a non-complete graph [Formula: see text] is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph with at least [Formula: see text] components. Let [Formula: see text] be an integer and [Formula: see text] be the decomposition of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. In this note, we determine the [Formula: see text]-component edge connectivity of the hypercube [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we classify the corresponding optimal solutions.

The Wiener index [Formula: see text] of a connected graph [Formula: see text] is the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices of [Formula: see text]. A connected graph [Formula: see text] is said to be a cactus if each of its blocks is either a cycle or an edge. Let [Formula: see text] be the set of all [Formula: see text]-vertex cacti containing exactly [Formula: see text] cycles. Liu and Lu (2007) determined the unique graph in [Formula: see text] with the minimum Wiener index. Gutman, Li and Wei (2017) determined the unique graph in [Formula: see text] with maximum Wiener index. In this paper, we present the second-minimum Wiener index of graphs in [Formula: see text] and identify the corresponding extremal graphs, which solve partially the problem proposed by Gutman et al. [Cacti with [Formula: see text]-vertices and [Formula: see text] cycles having extremal Wiener index, Discrete Appl. Math. 232 (2017) 189–200] in 2017.

The power graph [Formula: see text] of a given finite group [Formula: see text] is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the elements of [Formula: see text], in which two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if one of them can be obtained as an integral power of the other. The vertex connectivity [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum number of vertices which need to be removed from [Formula: see text] so that the induced subgraph of [Formula: see text] on the remaining vertices is disconnected or has only one vertex. For a positive integer [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the cyclic group of order [Formula: see text]. Suppose that the prime power decomposition of [Formula: see text] is given by [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] are positive integers and [Formula: see text] are prime numbers with [Formula: see text]. The vertex connectivity [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is known for [Formula: see text], see [Panda and Krishna, On connectedness of power graphs of finite groups, J. Algebra Appl. 17(10) (2018) 1850184, 20 pp, Chattopadhyay, Patra and Sahoo, Vertex connectivity of the power graph of a finite cyclic group, to appear in Discr. Appl.

In this paper, for [Formula: see text], we give a new upper bound for [Formula: see text] and determine [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text]. We also determine [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] is a product of distinct prime numbers.

Let [Formula: see text] be a connected graph and [Formula: see text] be the distance between the vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. The diameter of [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text] and is denoted by [Formula: see text]. A subset of vertices [Formula: see text] is called a resolving set for [Formula: see text] if for every two distinct vertices [Formula: see text], there is a vertex [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], such that [Formula: see text]. A resolving set containing the minimum number of vertices is called a metric basis for [Formula: see text] and the number of vertices in a metric basis is its metric dimension, denoted by [Formula: see text]. Metric dimension is a generalization of affine dimension to arbitrary metric spaces (provided a resolving set exists). Let [Formula: see text] be a family of connected graphs [Formula: see text] depending on [Formula: see text] as follows: the order [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. If there exists a constant [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] for every [Formula: see text] then we shall say that [Formula: see text] has bounded metric dimension, otherwise [Formula: see text] has unbounded metric dimension. If all graphs in [Formula: see text] have the same metric dimension, then [Formula: see text] is called a family of graphs with constant metric dimension. In this paper, we study the metric properties of an infinite class of circulant graphs with three generators denoted by [Formula: see text] for any positive integer [Formula: see text] and when [Formula: see text]. We compute the diameter and determine the exact value of the metric dimension of these circulant graphs.

The matching preclusion number of a graph is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph that has neither perfect matchings nor almost-perfect matchings. For many interconnection networks, the optimal sets are precisely those induced by a single vertex. Recently, the conditional matching preclusion number of a graph was introduced to look for obstruction sets beyond those induced by a single vertex. It is defined to be the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph with no isolated vertices that has neither perfect matchings nor almost-perfect matchings. In this paper, we find the matching preclusion number and the conditional matching preclusion number with the classification of the optimal sets for the class of crossed cubes, an important variant of the class of hypercubes. Indeed, we will establish more general results on the matching preclusion and the conditional matching preclusion problems for a larger class of interconnection networks.

The matching preclusion number of a graph is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph that has neither perfect matchings nor almost-perfect matchings. For many interconnection networks, the optimal sets are precisely those incident to a single vertex. Recently, the conditional matching preclusion number of a graph was introduced to look for obstruction sets beyond those incident to a single vertex. It is defined to be the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in a graph with no isolated vertices that has neither perfect matchings nor almost-perfect matchings. In this paper, we find this number and classify all optimal sets for the augmented cubes, a class of networks designed as an improvement of the hypercubes.

The most productive application of graph theory in chemistry is the representation of molecules by the graphs, where vertices and edges of graphs are the atoms and valence bonds between a pair of atoms, respectively. For a vertex w and an edge f = c 1 c 2 of a connected graph G , the minimum number from distances of w with c 1 and c 2 is called the distance between w and f . If for every two distinct edges f 1 , f 2 ∈ E G , there always exists w 1 ∈ W E ⊆ V G such that d f 1 , w 1 ≠ d f 2 , w 1 , then W E is named as an edge metric generator. The minimum number of vertices in W E is known as the edge metric dimension of G . In this paper, we calculate the edge metric dimension of ortho-polyphenyl chain graph O n , meta-polyphenyl chain graph M n , and the linear [n]-tetracene graph T n and also find the edge metric dimension of para-polyphenyl chain graph L n . It has been proved that the edge metric dimension of O n , M n , and T n is bounded, while L n is unbounded.
