The maximal outerplanar graphs are important in graph theory. In this paper some formulas to enumerate the numbers of maximal outerplanar graphs by means of the compressing graph and group theory method are given first. Then the relationships between Catalan numbers and the numbers of labeled and unlabeled maximal outerplanar graphs are presented. The computed results verified these formulas.展开更多

A method for estimating the spectral radius of each spanning subgraph is used to prove that the spectral radius of a Hamiltonian planar graph of order n≥4 is less than or equal to 2+3n-11 and the spectral radius of the outerplanar graph of order n≥6 is less than or equal to 22+n-5, which are improvements over previous results. A direction for further study is then suggested.展开更多
