The variation of Randic index R'(G) of a graph G is defined by R'(G) = ?uv 1/ max{du,dv}, where du is the degree of a vertex u in G and the summation extends over all edges uv of G. In this work, we characterize the extremal trees achieving the minimum value of R0 for trees with given number of vertices and leaves. Furthermore, we characterize the extremal graphs achieving the minimum value of R' for connected graphs with given number of vertices and girth.

We establish some bounds for the number of spanning trees of connected graphs in terms of the number of vertices(n), the number of edges(m), maximum vertex degree(Δ1), minimum vertex degree(δ),…first Zagreb index(M1),and Randić index(R-1).

For a graph G without isolated vertices, the inverse degree of a graph G is defined as I D ( G ) = ∑ u ∈ V ( G ) d ( u ) − 1 where d ( u ) is the number of vertices adjacent to the vertex u in G. By replacing − 1 by any non-zero real number we obtain zeroth-order general Randić index, i.e., 0 R γ ( G ) = ∑ u ∈ V ( G ) d ( u ) γ , where γ ∈ R − { 0 } . Xu et al. investigated some lower and upper bounds on I D for a connected graph G in terms of connectivity, chromatic number, number of cut edges, and clique number. In this paper, we extend their results and investigate if the same results hold for γ < 0 . The corresponding extremal graphs have also been identified.

The Randic index R(G) of a graph G is defined as R(G) = ?uv?E (d(u)d(v))-1/2 where the summation goes over all edges of G. In 1988, Fajtlowicz proposed a conjecture: For all connected graphs G with average distance ad(G), then R(G) ? ad(G). In this paper, we prove that this conjecture is true for unicyclic graphs.

Let G be a simple, connected and undirected graph. The atom-bond connectivity index (ABC(G)) and Randić index (R(G)) are the two most well known topological indices. Recently, Ali and Du (2017) introduced the difference between atom-bond connectivity and Randić indices, denoted as ABC−R index. In this paper, we determine the fourth, the fifth and the sixth maximum chemical trees values of ABC−R for chemical trees, and characterize the corresponding extremal graphs. We also obtain an upper bound for ABC−R index of such trees with given number of pendant vertices. The role of symmetry has great importance in different areas of graph theory especially in chemical graph theory.

Let G = (V,E) be a simple connected graph. Denote by D(G) the diagonal matrix of its vertex degrees and by A(G) its adjacency matrix. Then the Laplacian matrix of graph G is L(G) = D(G)-A(G). Let a(G) and ?(G), respectively, be the second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue and the independence number of graph G. In this paper, we characterize the extremal graph with second minimum value for addition of algebraic connectivity and independence number among all connected graphs with n ? 6 vertices (Actually, we can determine the p-th minimum value of a(G)+ ?(G) under certain condition when p is small). Moreover, we present a lower bound to the addition of algebraic connectivity and radius of connected graphs.
