We define a Hopf algebra from an explicit realization of its elements as formal power series. We show that these series can be evaluated on graphs and count occurrences of subgraphs. We establish a criterion for the isomorphism test of two simple graphs by means of occurrence counting of subgraphs. This criterion is deduced from algebraic relations between elements of our algebra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-11-18T15:46:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hopf algebra", "graph invariants", "simple graph isomorphism problem", "formal power series", "algebraic relations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151105843B" } } }
