Also, we provide a formula for calculating the number of smallest odd-sized cycles in a given regular graph.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEnergyGraphsAdjacencySum-edge adjacencyCharacteristic polynomialPermutationScience & technologyPhysical sciencesMathematicsA new method for the sum-edge characteristic polynomials of graphsArticle4010.5269/bspm.479182175-1188
