Abstract

This paper aims to increase the accuracy measure of the subgraph of a graph and generate new nano topologies on the power set of vertices and edges of a graph. Firstly, we introduce \({\mathcal {E}}_j\)-neighborhoods and \({\mathcal {C}}_j\)-neighborhoods which depend on vertices and edges of a simple directed graph by using j-neighborhoods for \(j\in \{\text {out}, \text {in}, \cap , \cup \}\). Then, we apply these neighborhoods to present the concepts of \({\mathcal {E}}_j\)-approximations and \({\mathcal {C}}_j\)-approximations. We investigate their main properties and relationships among them. Besides, we define the accuracy measures of a subgraph with the help of these approximations and show that \({\mathcal {C}}_j\)-accuracy measures are the highest when we compare these accuracy measures with the previous one. Furthermore, we generate new nano topologies via obtained approximations and illustrate that these topologies may not be comparable. Finally, we give an application in physics to elucidate the current approximations are more general. Throughout the paper, we summarize all comparisons with tables and give counterexamples to support the study.
