In this article we introduced neutorosophic resolving set, neutorosophic resolving number, neutorosophic super resolving set, neutorosophic super resolving number, inter-valued neutorosophic resolving set, inter-valued neutorosophic resolving number, also derived some theorems, properties, corollaries and also discussed real life application based on neutrosophic resolving sets. Keywords: Neutrosophic graphs, strength of connectedness, neutorosophic resolving number, inter-valued neutorosophic resolving number. 1. Introduction Neutrosophic graphs are more acceptable for real-life situations because they allow accurate, flexible, and realistic modeling of uncertainty, ignorance, and conflict factors that are inherent in nearly every real-world system. Neutrosophic graphs separate the true, the false, and the indeterminate. In graph theory, a resolving set is a subset of vertices that uniquely identifies all other vertices in the graph based on their distances to the vertices in the set. When extended into the neutrosophic domain, this concept becomes more powerful by incorporating truth, indeterminacy, and falsity—key elements of neutrosophic logic—to model uncertain, incomplete, or inconsistent information. A neutrosophic resolving set is a group of vertices in a neutrosophic graph that allows us to tell apart every other vertex based on the neutrosophic distance vector (which includes truth, indeterminacy, and falsity) from it to the vertices in the group. Since its introduction by Zadeh in 1965 [1], a novel fuzzy notion has been successfully used to model the different uncertain real-world applications in decision-making problems. The fuzzy idea is a more sophisticated version of the classical set, with distinct membership value grades. The fundamental classical set's two truth values are either 0 or 1. Crisp sets are inappropriate when dealing with the uncertainties of real-life problems. All items in the type University of New Mexico

The anticipated result will result from this. In this instance, the determination of an object's degree of course within the fuzzy set is characterized by its membership score, which is a unique number that falls between 0 and 1 and is different from the probability value within the fuzzy set. The individual making the choice might not be capable of managing the uncertainties of any complicated real-life situation if they are only using one membership grade value. To tackle this problem, Atanassov [2] presented the intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) and its characteristics. Each fuzzy set element is also assigned a hesitation rating and a nonmembership grade. The fuzzy set's properties can be easily described by using the three different attributes and taking into account the parameters, which are regulated by IFS numbers and include inferiority, superiority, and hesitations. Smarandache [3,4] introduced the innovative idea of neutrophilic sets using the IFS ideology and more relevant data that addressed the real-world issues related to imprecise, hazy, and uncertainty movement. The neutrosophic set is capable of capturing the ambiguities produced by irregular, unclear, and unpredictable data in any situation. It is essentially a more complete form of fuzzy sets, uncertain fuzzy sets, and simple traditional sets alike. Each element of the neutrosophic set has been assigned one of three membership grades: ambiguous, false, or true. The three membership classes of the neutrosophic set are independent of each other and are always contained within [0, 1]. A useful tool for simulating real-world issues is a graph. Typically, nodes and loops model the graph to represent the items and their relationships. A wide variety of graph types, such as FGs, IFS, and NG theories, are required to represent the wide variety of information types observed in practical applications [5–11]. IFS relationships were first proposed by Shannon and Atanassov [12]. They went on to publish a number of theorems and introduce the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy graphs. Parvathi et al. [13–15] suggested a number of different methods to connect two intuitionistic fuzzy graphs. Rashmanlou and colleagues [16–18] established several product operations on IFGs, such as lexicographic, direct, strong, and semi-strong products. They describe the union on intuitionistic fuzzy networks, the unrestricted join, and the connected components. Actually, the n-Super hyper graph, which was introduced alongside super-vertices by Smarandache [19], is the most complete kind of graph currently accessible. Akram and colleagues first proposed the concept of a fuzzy Pythagorean graph [20–25]. According to Khizar Hayat et al. [26], the permanent function is used as a basis to determine the determinant and adjoint of neutrosophic matrices with interval values. Type 2 soft graphs were defined by Khizar Hayat et al. [27] on underlying subgraphs of a simple graph. For neutrosophic sets, Faruk Karaaslan and Khizar Hayat [28] provided verires matrices. They provided an application for multi-criteria group decisionmaking based on verires matrices. A study by Majeed et al. [29] examined several index kinds in neutrosophic graphic representations. Both degree-based and completely degree-based indices fall within this category. The neutrosophic graph's vertex absolute degree, r-edge regular, and strongly edge regular were introduced by Kaviyarasu, M. [30]. Additionally, he
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems, Vol. 97, 2026 358 __________________________________________________________________________________ Shanmugapriya R, Sangeetha P, Application of neutrosophic resolving sets in earthquake disaster management using neutrosophic graph models discussed other aspects of these graphs. The max product of complement notation in NG was suggested by Wadei Faris AL-Omeri et al. [31] in order to determine the most efficient web streaming platforms. Many others have explored the neutrosophic graph in different dimensions (Table 1). However, not yet taken into consideration is the idea of the score function's absolute value. We may concentrate on the issues that arise in real time during earthquakes in Japan because the score function is crucial in many decision-making situations. One eventual goal is to set up an earthquake response center that aids in the recovery from such catastrophes.

Important of this study • Neutrophic collections and visualisations are particularly well-suited to address the problems of ambiguity, indeterminacy, and uncertainty in particular contexts, such as response to earthquakes organising, despite the fact that rough sets, fuzzy sets, and other generalisations of fuzzy sets are important and commonly used in many applications. • Disaster response centres in Syria and Turkey use MADM models, particularly those that apply neutrosophic reason. These models are important because they provide a systematic framework for evaluating complex choices in the face of uncertainty, taking stakeholder preferences into consideration, balancing trade-offs, and encouraging adaptability in decision-making. Reaction centres can improve their management and mitigate the impact of earthquakes on affected areas by putting these strategies into practice. Benefits and drawbacks • Compared to traditional crisp or fuzzy graphs, neutrophilic graphs can be more nuanced in their representation of uncertainty. Decision-makers can more accurately model and reason about uncertain relationships when they are able to convey information that is correct, erroneous, or unclear. Neutosophic graphs use truth, indeterminacy, and falsity grading to provide a comprehensive representation of uncertainty. Its granularity allows decision-makers to capture even the smallest variations in the level of uncertainty, which can improve analysis and decision-making. Analysing neutrophilic graphs in large-scale systems with numerous interrelated components can be challenging and computationally expensive. Since neutrophilic network topologies necessitate certain expertise and experience, they may be challenging for non-experts to comprehend or assess. • The reliability and correctness of neutronosophic graph models may be difficult to evaluate and confirm when there are few ground truths or benchmark datasets. Assessing the viability and effectiveness of neutrosophic graph-based methods requires sensitivity tests and strong validation procedures. The study's contributions Through the application of neutrosophic graph theory to seismic response study can help develop disaster response plans that are more flexible and resilient. Neutrophilic graphs are used to illustrate the complex network of connections, lines of communication, and decisionmaking processes inside the, enabling more comprehensive planning and preparation methods. This paper's themes are as follows: NG, union graphs, sums, complements, and

We also discuss several associated properties of weak and strong complex NG and describe their isomorphism. In the third section, we describe the neutrosophic resolving sets on NG and go over some of the related characteristics. To support the suggested concepts, we provide some specific examples. The definition and discussion of the interval-valued neutrosophic resolving set on interval-valued NG are covered in Section 4. Section 5 presents a modified resolving set that is neutrosophic, specifically applied to modified neutrosophic graphs. Conclusions, recommendations, and applications are included in Section 6. 2. Preliminaries Definition 2.1 Let us assume that G = ( α, β) and G = ( α, β) are neutrosophic graphs. An isomorphism ℜ: G → G is a map ℜ: V → V that is bijective and fulfils α (vi) = α(ℜ(vi)) vi V. i.e., Tα(vi) = Tα (ℜ(vi )), Iα (vi) = Iα (ℜ(vi)), Fα (vi) = Fα (ℜ(vi)), vi V and β (vi, vj) = β (ℜ (vi), ℜ (vj)) (vi, vj) V i.e., Tβ(vi, vj) = Tβ′ (ℜ (vi), ℜ (vj)), Iβ(vi, vj ) = Iβ(ℜ(vi), ℜ (vj)), Fβ(vi, vj )= Fβ(ℜ (vi), ℜ (vj)), (vi, vj) V. We represented it as G G. Definition 2.2 Let G = ( α, β) and G = ( α, β) be neutrosophic graphs. There is a map ℜ : V →V that satisfies β(vi, vj) = β(ℜ(vi), ℜ(vj)) (vi, vj) V i.e., Tβ(vi, vj ) = Tβ(ℜ (vi) ℜ (vj)), Iβ(vi, vj ) = Iβ(ℜ (vi) ℜ (vj)), Fβ(vi, vj ) = Fβ(ℜ (vi) ℜ (vj)), (vi, vj) V. Then ℜ: G → G is a co-weak isomorphism. Definition 2.3 Let G = (α,β) be an SVNG. If G has a path P of path length K. The strength of neutrosophic path connecting two nodes p and q such as P = p = {p1, (p1, p2), p2, ..., pk-1(pk-1, pk)}, pk = q , then Tβk(p, q), Iβ k(p, q) and Fβ k(p, q) is called the strength of the neutrosophic path. This path describes as follows. Tβk (p, q) = sup (Tβ (p, p1) Tβ (p1, p2) ... Tβ(pk-1, pk)), Iβ k (p, q) = sup (Iβ (p, p1) Iβ (p1, p2) ... Iβ (pk-1, pk)), Fβ k(p, q) = inf (Fβ (p, p1) Fβ (p1, p2) ... Fβ (pk-1, pk)). Definition 2.4 Let G = (α,β) be an SVNG. The strength of connection of a path P between two nodes a and b is defined by Tβsc(p, q), Iβ sc(p, q) and Fβ sc(p, q). Where: Tβsc (p, q) = sup {Tβk(p, q) / k = 1, 2, 3,...} Iβ sc (p, q) = sup {Iβ k(p, q) / k = 1, 2, 3,...} Fβ sc (p, q) = inf {Fβ k(p, q) / k = 1, 2, 3,...}. Definition 2.5 Let G [R, S] be an IVFG on a crisp graph G*(V, E), where R = [αlR(vi), αuR(vj) ] and S = [αls(vi,vj) ,αuS(vi,vj)]. If R is an IVFS on vertex set V and S is an IVFS on edge set E, satisfy the following condition:

The way φ is represented in relation to (αφ) is distinct, then the subset φ is said to be an interval-valued fuzzy resolving set of G. Definition 2.7 An SVNG with vertex set V is defined by NG = (α,β), where α=(Tα ,Iα ,Fα ) is a single-valued neutrosophic set on VG and β=(T β,Iβ ,Fβ ) is a single-valued neutrosophic relation on EG satisfying the following condition: 1) V = {v1, v2,..., vn }, such that Tα :VG → [0, 1], Iα :VG → [0, 1], Fα :VG → [0, 1], 0 ≤ Tα (vi) + Iα (vi) +Fα (vi) ≤ 3, for all vi ∈VG . 2) Tβ: EG → [0,1], Iβ: EG → [0,1], and Fβ: EG → [0,1] are the functions that satisfy the following conditions. i) T β (x,y) ≤min {T α(x),Tα (y)}, (𝑥, y) ∈VG ×VG . ii) I β (𝑥,𝑦) ≤min {I α(x),Iα (y)}, (𝑥, y) ∈VG ×VG iii) Fβ (𝑥,𝑦) ≥max {F α(x),Fα (y)}, (𝑥, y) ∈(VG ×VG ) and 0 ≤ Tβ (𝑥,𝑦) + Iβ(x, y) + Fβ(x, y) ≤3 (x,y)∈ E. 3 Neutrosophic resolving sets on neutrosophic graphs 3.1 Definition Let G (α,β) be NG with |v|= n, a subset of NG is φ= { v1 Tα (v1),Iα (v1),Fα (v1), v2 Tα (v2),Iα (v2),Fα (v2), v3 Tα (v3),Iα (v3),Fα (v3), ……….., vk Tα (vk),Iα (vk),Fα (vk) } , (α−φ)= { vk+1 Tα (vk+1),Iα (vk+1),Fα (vk+1), vk+2 Tα (vk+2),Iα (vk+2),Fα (vk+2), vk+3 Tα (vk+3),Iα (vk+3),Fα (vk+3), ……….., vn Tα (vn),Iα (vn),Fα (vn) } . The subset 𝜑 is referred to as a neutrosophic resolving set of G if its representation 𝜑 in reference to (αφ) is distinct. The minimum size of the neutrosophic resolving set is called the neutrosophic resolving number (G).

So that (G) = 2. 3.5 Theorem Neutrosophic super resolving set is always neutrosophic resolving set but converse need not be true. Proof: Let G be a neutrosophic graph with n vertices and let φ= { v1 Tα (v1),Iα (v1),Fα (v1), v2 Tα (v2),Iα (v2),Fα (v2), v3 Tα (v3),Iα (v3),Fα (v3), ……….., vk Tα (vk),Iα (vk),Fα (vk) } , be a neutrosophic resolving set of G. So the representation of 𝜑 with respect to (α− φ) should be distinct but the set φ ned not be distinct with respect to α so that neutrosophic resolving set need not be neutrosophic super resolving set of G . Conversely let φ be a neutrosophic super resolving set of G then the representation of φ with respect to α is distinct from this representation of φ with respect to (α - φ) also hence be neutrosophic super resolving set is always be neutrosophic resolving set. 3.6 Theorem Two neutrosophoic graphs G (V, α, β) and Gˈ(Vˈ, α ˈ,βˈ) are isomorphic then 𝓃𝓇(G) = 𝓃𝓇(Gˈ).

Applications The neutrosophic graph is the perfect model for real-world situations for disaster management like earthquakes, floods, and tsunamis, where information is incomplete, delayed, confusing, uncertain, indeterminate, or partially true. In emergency management, after an earthquake, emergency teams need to: • Please identify the impacted areas at your earliest convenience. • Sort the places with the greatest degree of uncertainty first. • Despatch rescue teams optimally. However: • Some sensors may be offline. • Data from affected areas may be incomplete (roads destroyed, communication failure). • Some damage reports may be conflicting or delayed. Thus, uncertainty (indeterminacy) exists. Using a neutrosophic resolution set, we can select key locations (hospitals, emergency hubs, and monitoring centres) that best resolve the uncertainty across all impacted areas. For the Turkey – Syria Earthquake 2023 scenario, let us consider a mathematical modelling approach to represent expert opinions on the necessity and characteristics of an intermediary measure for earthquake-resistant facilities in various regions.

With trustworthy data and preliminary reports, the city of Gaziantep shows that T (certainty) is 90%, I (indeterminacy) is 5%, and F (falsity) is 5%. A representation of Gaziantep would be (0.9, 0.05, 0.05). Kahramanmaraş is the epicentre region, mostly verified so that T (certainty) is 85%, I (indeterminacy) is 10%, and F (falsity) is 5%. Kahramanmaraş may be represented as (0.85, 0.10, 0.05). The city of Hatay has delayed/conflicting reports so that T (5%), I (35%), and F (15%), so Hatay may be represented as (0.5, 0.35, 0.15). Adana has minimal disruption and reliable sensors, so T (95%), I (3%), and F (2%). Therefore, Adana may be represented as (0.95, 0.03, 0.02), and Aleppo has political conflict and uncertain data, so T (60%), I (25%), and F (15%) for Aleppo may be represented as (0.6, 0.25, 0.15).

The cities of Gaziantep and Kahramanmaraş have strong links and main roads, so T (90%), I (5%), and F (5%). Therfore the neutrosophic values of the edge between Gaziantep and Kahramanmaraş is (0, 9, 0.05, 0.05) the city Gaziantep and Hatay has Partial road damage, and has delayed data so T (60%), I (25%), F (15%) so that the neutrosophic values of the edge between Gaziantep and Hatay is (0.6, 0.25, 0.15), the city between hatay and Aleppo has Border conflict, high uncertainty so T(40%), I (40%), F (15%) therefore the edge neutrosophic value between hatay and Aleppo is (0.4, 0.4, 0.2), the road between Kahramanmaraş and Malatya has blockages so T (70%), I (20%), F (10%) therefore the edge neutrosophic value between Kahramanmaraş and Malatya is (0.7, 0.2, 0.1) the cities Malatya and Aleppo are remote and unclear routes so T(30%), I (50%), F (20%) so that the edge neutrosophic value between Malatya and Aleppo is (0.3, 0.5, 0.2) the

Let us take R = {G, K}, (V-R) = {M, H, Al, A}. Here the subset R = {G, K} is a resolving set of G. βSC (M, G), βSC (M, K) = (0.65, 0.05, 0.15), (0.65, 0.1, 0.1) βSC (H, G), βSC (H, K) = (0.5, 0.05, 0.15), (0.5, 0.1, 0.15) βSC (AL, G), βSC (AL, K) = (0.5, 0.05, 0.15), (0.6, 0.1, 0.15) βSC (A, G), βSC (A, K) = (0.5, 0.03, 0.15), (0.5, 0.03, 0.15) The representation of (α - R) with respect to R are all distinct, therefore R is the neutrosophic reasolving set of G. Effective localization of high-priority zones is made possible in seismic disaster management by the use of neutrosophic resolving sets, even in cases where data is ambiguous, lacking, or contradictory. More lives are eventually saved as a result of quicker rescue efforts and more effective resource allocation. Neutrosophic resolving sets benefits for earthquake scenarios Modelling uncertainty portrays ambiguous or contradictory damage reports accurately. Improved localization aids in the specific identification of impacted areas for focused rescue decision support helps rescue crews prioritize tasks when data is lacking. Adaptable data management performs well with ambiguous or hazy sensor data (such as that from drones or

Management of redundancy resolves ambiguities that are not captured by traditional graphs. 6. Conclusions Neutrosophic graphs are effective tools for modelling systems with inconsistent, ambiguous, and incomplete information, which is prevalent in many real-world domains such as risk assessment and disaster management, social network analysis, cybersecurity and intrusion detection, medical diagnosis systems, and decision-making in uncertain environments. This manuscript's primary contribution is the introduction of the concepts of neutrosophic resolving sets in neutrosophic graphs, neutrosophic super resolving sets in neutrosophic graphs, and inter-valued neutrosophic resolving sets in inter-valued neutrosophic graphs. Additionally, we have defined an application based on neutrosophic resolving sets and discussed various theorems, corollaries, and properties. We might investigate further neutrosophic resolving set problems in the future. The earthquake prediction centre has been established at several places in Syria and Turkey using the neutrosophic graph. In order to make better decisions, vertices in a neutrosophic graph are more beneficial. In order to avoid catastrophes during earthquakes, the mathematical underpinnings of neutrosophic graph theory tend to suggest appropriate places from Turkey to Syria. References 1. Zadeh, L.A.
