Let be the number of edge covers of a graph of size . Then the edge cover polynomial is defined by
(1) |
where is the edge count of (Akban and Oboudi 2013).
Cycle graphs and complete bipartite graphs are determined by their edge cover polynomials (Akban and Oboudi 2013).
The edge cover polynomial is multiplicative over graph components, so for a graph having connected components , , ..., the edge cover polynomial of itself is given by
(2) |
The edge cover polynomial satisfies
(3) |
where is the vertex count of a graph and is its independence polynomial (Akban and Oboudi 2013).
The following table summarizes sums for the edge cover polynomials of some common classes of graphs (Akban and Oboudi 2013).
