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
Let x(G^2) denote the chromatic number of the square of a maximal outerplanar graph G and Q denote a maximal outerplanar graph obtained by adding three chords y1 y3, y3y5, y5y1 to a 6-cycle y1y2…y6y1.

In this paper, it is proved that △ + 1 ≤ x(G^2) ≤△ + 2, and x(G^2) = A + 2 if and only if G is Q, where A represents the maximum degree of G.展开更多
