The forgotten topological index of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is defined as the sum of weights [Formula: see text] over all edges [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of the vertex [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we establish upper bounds on the forgotten topological index of trees, unicyclic graphs and bicyclic graphs with a given domination number.

The [Formula: see text]-index of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is defined as the sum of weights [Formula: see text] over all edges [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds of the [Formula: see text]-index (forgotten topological index) over bicyclic graphs, in terms of the order and maximum degree.

For a connected graph J, a subset W ⊆ V J is termed as a locating-total dominating set if for a ∈ V J ,   N a ∩ W ≠ ϕ , and for a ,   b ∈ V J − W ,   N a ∩ W ≠ N b ∩ W . The number of elements in a smallest such subset is termed as the locating-total domination number of J. In this paper, the locating-total domination number of unicyclic graphs and bicyclic graphs are studied and their bounds are presented. Then, by using these bounds, an upper bound for cacti graphs in terms of their order and number of cycles is estimated. Moreover, the exact values of this domination variant for some families of cacti graphs including tadpole graphs and rooted products are also determined.

The forgotten topological index of a graph $G$, denoted by $F(G)$, is defined as the sum of weights $d(u)^{2}+d(v)^{2}$ over all edges $uv$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds of the F-index (forgotten topological index) over bicyclic graphs, in terms of the order and maximum degree.

For 0 ? ? ? 1, Nikiforov proposed to study the spectral properties of the family of matrices A?(G) = ?D(G)+(1 ? ?)A(G) of a graph G, where D(G) is the degree diagonal matrix and A(G) is the adjacency matrix of G. The ?-spectral radius of G is the largest eigenvalue of A?(G). For a graph with two pendant paths at a vertex or at two adjacent vertices, we prove results concerning the behavior of the ?-spectral radius under relocation of a pendant edge in a pendant path. We give upper bounds for the ?-spectral radius for unicyclic graphs G with maximum degree ? ? 2, connected irregular graphs with given maximum degree and some other graph parameters, and graphs with given domination number, respectively. We determine the unique tree with the second largest ?-spectral radius among trees, and the unique tree with the largest ?-spectral radius among trees with given diameter. We also determine the unique graphs so that the difference between the maximum degree and the ?-spectral radius is maximum among trees, unicyclic graphs and non-bipartite graphs, respectively.

Abstract Let G = (V;E) be a graph. A set S ⊂ V (G) is a hop dominating set of G if for every v ∈ V - S, there exists u ∈ S such that d(u; v) = 2. The minimum cardinality of a hop dominating set of G is called a hop domination number of G and is denoted by γh(G). In this paper we characterize the family of trees and unicyclic graphs for which γh(G) = γt(G) and γh(G) = γc(G) where γt(G) and γc(G) are the total domination and connected domination numbers of G respectively. We then present the strong equality of hop domination and hop independent domination numbers for trees. Hop domination numbers of shadow graph and mycielskian graph of graph are also discussed.

The total irregularity index of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined by Abdo et al. [H. Abdo, S. Brandt and D. Dimitrov, The total irregularity of a graph, Discrete Math. Theor. Comput. Sci. 16 (2014) 201–206] as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In 2014, You et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of unicyclic graphs, Ars Comb. 114 (2014) 153–160.] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Unicyclic graphs) and Zhou et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang, Y. X. Zhu and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of bicyclic graphs, J. Appl. Math. 2014 (2014) 785084, http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/785084 ] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Bicyclic graphs). In this paper, we characterize the aforementioned graphs with an alternative but comparatively simple approach. Also, we characterized the graphs having maximum [Formula: see text] value among the classes [Formula: see text] (Tricyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Tetracyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Pentacyclic graphs) and [Formula: see text] (Hexacyclic graphs).

We present and analyze some random procedures for the construction of small dominating sets in graphs. Several upper bounds for the domination number of a graph are derived from these procedures.
