These results are used to present a sharp lower bound for the Wiener index of unicyclic graphs of order $n$ with girth and the matching number $\\beta\\ge \\frac{3g}{2}$. Moreover, we characterize all extremal graphs which attain the lower bound.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-02-26T13:26:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C12", "05C70" ], "keywords": [ "wiener index", "matching number", "unicyclic graphs varies", "sharp lower bound", "extremal graphs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1102.5409C" } } }
