Background:
The energy E(G)of Graph G is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. In theoretical chemistry, within the Huckel molecular orbital (HMO) approximation, the energy levels of the π-electrons in molecules of conjugated hydrocarbons are related to the energy of the molecular graphs.
Objective:
The digraph with maximum digraph energy in a class of graphs is found.
Methodology:
Let Δn be the set consisting of digraphs with n vertices and each cycle having length = 2mod(4). The set of all the n-order directed hollow k-polygons in Δn based on a - polygon G is denoted by Hk(G).
Results:
In this research, by using the quasi-order relation over Δn and the characteristic polynomials of digraphs, we describe the directed hollow k-polygon with the maximum digraph energy in Hk(G).
Conclusion:
The n-order oriented hollow k-polygon with the maximum digraph energy among H_k (G) only contains a cycle. Moreover, such a cycle is the longest one produced in G.

Take the example of a skater on a parabolic ramp. The potential energy at different points along the ramp will be proportional to the height of the ramp, which varies quadratically with the horizontal position on the ramp. As the skater moves down the ramp from the highest position,...

The point in the energy diagram at which the system’s potential energy is the lowest is known as the local minima. The system tends to stay in this position indefinitely unless acted upon by a net force. The slope of the potential energy diagram at the local minima is zero, indicating that zero net force is acting on the system. The...
