Assume that ‘e’ is the number of edges and n is the number of vertices. The number of non-isomorphic graphs possible with n-vertices such that graph is 3-regular graph and e = 2n – 3 are ______.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here I got as No of vertexes = 6

No of Edges = 9

From here on, Given no of vertex & edges how to find no of Non Isomorphic graphs possible ? , this is real question ! Is there any algorithm for this ?

since it is regular graph so max no. of edge

3n= 2e

as we know e = 2n – 3

equat both

3n/2 = 2n -4

n= 6 // no. of vertex

 so no. of edges= 2n-3= 2*6-3= 12-3= 9 

so using 6 vertex and 9 edges with every vertex has tree degree only two graph possible. one is k3,3

That's the issue, if we are asked

Give no of isomorphic graphs for this many no of vertices & edges, how to find it ? That's real issue. (Updated the question !)

how e = 2n-3??

@Akash we can find how many graph we can draw with help of 6 Vertex and 9 Edge with different structure we can create e.g

k3,3,

graph 2 vertex with 5 degree and left 4 are with 2 degree.
