Over all graphs (or unicyclic graphs) of a given order, we characterise those graphs that minimise or maximise the number of connected induced subgraphs. For each of these classes, we find that the graphs that minimise the number of…

A monitoring edge-geodetic set, or simply an MEG-set, of a graph $G$ is a vertex subset $M \subseteq V(G)$ such that given any edge $e$ of $G$, $e$ lies on every shortest $u$-$v$ path of $G$, for some $u,v \in M$. The monitoring…

A graph $G$ consists of two parts, the vertices and edges. The vertices constitute the vertex set $V(G)$ and the edges, the edge set. An edge \( e=xy \), \( ev \)-dominates not only the vertices incident to it but also those adjacent to…

The general sum-connectivity index of a graph $G$ is defined as $\chi_\alpha(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)} {(d(u)+d(v))^{\alpha}}$, where $d(v)$ denotes the degree of the vertex $v$ in $G$ and $\alpha$ is a real number. In this paper it is…
