In 1980, Athreya, Pranesachar and Singhi established the chromatic polynomial of $(3 \times n)$-Latin rectangles whose entries based on a set $\{1, 2, ..., λ\}$ in which $λ\geq n$. Their proof requires Möbius inversion formula and lattice partitions. In this paper, we present a simpler proof by using the idea of mathematical induction and appropriate coloring.
Hosoya index and Merrifield-Simmons index are two well-known topological descriptors that reflex some physical properties, boiling point or heat of formation for instance, of bezenoid hydrocarbon compounds. In this paper, we establish the generating functions of the expected values of these two indices of random hexagonal cacti. This generalizes the results of Doslic and Maloy, published in Discrete Mathemaics, in 2010. By applying the ideas on meromorphic functions and the growth of power series coefficients, the asymptotic behaviors of these indices on the random cacti have been established.
Counting the number of maximal independent sets of graphs was started over $50$ years ago by Erdős and Mooser. The problem has been continuously studied with a number of variations. Interestingly, when the maximal condition of an independent set is removed, such the concept presents one of topological indices in molecular graphs, the so called Merrifield-Simmons index. In this paper, we applied the concept of bivariate generating function to establish the recurrence relations of the numbers of maximal independent sets of regualr $n$-gonal cacti when $3 \leq n \leq 6$. By the ideas on meromorphic functions and the growth of power series coefficients, the asymptotic behaviors through simple functions of these recurrence relations have been established.
