Chain polynomials of graphs
The chain polynomial of a graph was introduced in \textit{R. C. Read} and \textit{E. G. Whitehead jun.} [Discrete Math. 204, 337-356 (1999; Zbl 0960.05050)], where some basic properties of these polynomials were given as well. In the present paper further properties are investigated and the gained results are used to compute the chain polynomials of graphs that are exactly 2-connected wheels or 3-connected ladders.
