Abstract

A  path is monophonic if it has no chords for any two vertices  and  in a connected graph , and the monophonic distance  is the length of the longest  monophonic path in . The monophonic eccentricity of each vertex  in  is given by . It is demonstrated that the monophonic center of a graph exists in every graph. The subgraph created by the vertices of  exhibiting minimal monophonic eccentricity is the monophonic center of . Additionally, it is demonstrated that each connected graph  monophonic center is located within one of its blocks.
