Generalized Distance

The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) of a connected graph G is defined as D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 , D ( G ) is the distance matrix and T r ( G ) is the diagonal matrix of the node transmissions. In this paper, we extend the concept of energy to the generalized distance matrix and define the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) . Some new upper and lower bounds for the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) of G are established based on parameters including the Wiener index W ( G ) and the transmission degrees. Extremal graphs attaining these bounds are identified. It is found that the complete graph has the minimum generalized distance energy among all connected graphs, while the minimum is attained by the star graph among trees of order n.

Let kr(n, δ) be the minimum number of r-cliques in graphs with n vertices and minimum degree at least δ. We evaluate kr(n, δ) for δ ≤ 4n/5 and some other cases. Moreover, we give a construction which we conjecture to give all extremal graphs (subject to certain conditions on n, δ and r).

In spectral graph theory, the Laplacian energy of undirected graphs has been studied extensively. However, there has been little work yet for digraphs. Recently, Perera and Mizoguchi (2010) introduced the directed Laplacian matrix [Formula: see text] and directed Laplacian energy [Formula: see text] using the second spectral moment of [Formula: see text] for a digraph [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] vertices, where [Formula: see text] is the diagonal out-degree matrix, and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] whenever there is an arc [Formula: see text] from the vertex [Formula: see text] to the vertex [Formula: see text] and 0 otherwise. They studied the directed Laplacian energies of two special families of digraphs (simple digraphs and symmetric digraphs). In this paper, we extend the study of Laplacian energy for digraphs which allow both simple and symmetric arcs. We present lower and upper bounds for the Laplacian energy for such digraphs and also characterize the extremal graphs that attain the lower and upper bounds. We also present a polynomial algorithm to find an optimal orientation of a simple undirected graph such that the resulting oriented graph has the minimum Laplacian energy among all orientations. This solves an open problem proposed by Perera and Mizoguchi at 2010.

Cactus Graphs

Let [Formula: see text] be multiplicative Zagreb index of a graph [Formula: see text]. A connected graph is a cactus graph if and only if any two of its cycles have at most one vertex in common, which is a generalization of trees and has been the interest of researchers in the field of material chemistry and graph theory. In this paper, we use a new tool to obtain the upper and lower bounds of [Formula: see text] for all cactus graphs and characterize the corresponding extremal graphs.

AbstractTwo resistance-distance-based graph invariants, namely, the Kirchhoff index and the additive degree-Kirchhoff index, are studied. A relation between them is established, with inequalities for the additive degree-Kirchhoff index arising via the Kirchhoff index along with minimum, maximum, and average degrees. Bounds for the Kirchhoff and additive degree-Kirchhoff indices are also determined, and extremal graphs are characterised. In addition, an upper bound for the additive degree-Kirchhoff index is established to improve a previously known result.

Turán Number

The Turán number of a graph $H$, $\mathrm{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices which does not have $H$ as a subgraph. We determine the Turán number and find the unique extremal graph for forests consisting of paths when $n$ is sufficiently large. This generalizes a result of Bushaw and Kettle [Combinatorics, Probability and Computing 20:837--853, 2011]. We also determine the Turán number and extremal graphs for forests consisting of stars of arbitrary order.
