چکیده
|
let $g=(v(g),e(g))$ be a graph with the set of vertices $v(g)$ and the set of edges $e(g)$. a subset $s$ of $e(g)$ is called a $k$-nearly independent edge subset if there are exactly $k$ pairs of elements of $s$ that share a common end. $z_k(g)$ is the number of such subsets.this paper studies $z_1$. various properties of $z_1$ are discussed. we characterize the two $n$-vertex trees with the smallest $z_1$, as well as the one with the largest value. a conjecture on the $n$-vertex tree with the second-largest $z_1$ is proposed.
