Let G be a graph with set of vertices V(G)(|V(G)|=n) and edge set E(G). Very recently, a new degree-based molecular structure descriptor, called Sombor index is denoted by SO(G) and is defined as SO=SO(G)=∑vivj∈E(G)dG(vi)2+dG(vj)2, where dG(vi) is the degree of the vertex vi in G. In this paper we present some lower and upper bounds on the Sombor index of graph G in terms of graph parameters (clique number, chromatic number, number of pendant vertices, etc.) and characterize the extremal graphs.

The Padmakar–Ivan ( P I ) index is a distance-based topological index and a molecular structure descriptor, which is the sum of the number of vertices over all edges u v of a graph such that these vertices are not equidistant from u and v. In this paper, we explore the results of P I -indices from trees to recursively clustered trees, the k-trees. Exact sharp upper bounds of PI indices on k-trees are obtained by the recursive relationships, and the corresponding extremal graphs are given. In addition, we determine the P I -values on some classes of k-trees and compare them, and our results extend and enrich some known conclusions.

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.

Suppose that G is a simple undirected connected graph. Denote by D ( G ) the distance matrix of G and by T r ( G ) the diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions in G, and let α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] . The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) is defined as D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 . If ∂ 1 ≥ ∂ 2 ≥ … ≥ ∂ n are the eigenvalues of D α ( G ) ; we define the generalized distance Estrada index of the graph G as D α E ( G ) = ∑ i = 1 n e ∂ i − 2 α W ( G ) n , where W ( G ) denotes for the Wiener index of G. It is clear from the definition that D 0 E ( G ) = D E E ( G ) and 2 D 1 2 E ( G ) = D Q E E ( G ) , where D E E ( G ) denotes the distance Estrada index of G and D Q E E ( G ) denotes the distance signless Laplacian Estrada index of G. This shows that the concept of generalized distance Estrada index of a graph G merges the theories of distance Estrada index and the distance signless Laplacian Estrada index. In this paper, we obtain some lower and upper bounds for the generalized distance Estrada index, in terms of various graph parameters associated with the structure of the graph G, and characterize the extremal graphs attaining these bounds. We also highlight relationship between the generalized distance Estrada index and the other graph-spectrum-based invariants, including generalized distance energy. Moreover, we have worked out some expressions for D α E ( G ) of some special classes of graphs.

For a simple connected graph $G$, the convex linear combinations $D_{\alpha}(G)$ of \ $Tr(G)$ and $D(G)$ is defined as $D_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha Tr(G)+(1-\alpha)D(G)$, $0\leq \alpha\leq 1$. As $D_{0}(G)=D(G)$, $2D_{\frac{1}{2}}(G)=D^{Q}(G)$, $D_{1}(G)=Tr(G)$ and $D_{\alpha}(G)-D_{\beta}(G)=(\alpha-\beta)D^{L}(G)$, this matrix reduces to merging the distance spectral and distance signless Laplacian spectral theories. In this paper, we study the spectral properties of the generalized distance matrix $D_{\alpha}(G)$. We obtain some lower and upper bounds for the generalized distance spectral radius, involving different graph parameters and characterize the extremal graphs. Further, we obtain upper and lower bounds for the maximal and minimal entries of the $ p $-norm normalized Perron vector corresponding to spectral radius $ \partial(G) $ of the generalized distance matrix $D_{\alpha}(G)$ and characterize the extremal graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a connected graph of order [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be the reciprocal distance matrix (also called Harary matrix) of the graph [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be the eigenvalues of the reciprocal distance matrix [Formula: see text] of the connected graph [Formula: see text] called the reciprocal distance eigenvalues of [Formula: see text]. The Harary energy [Formula: see text] of a connected graph [Formula: see text] is defined as sum of the absolute values of the reciprocal distance eigenvalues of [Formula: see text], that is, [Formula: see text] In this paper, we establish some new lower and upper bounds for [Formula: see text] in terms of different graph parameters associated with the structure of the graph [Formula: see text]. We characterize the extremal graphs attaining these bounds. We also obtain a relation between the Harary energy and the sum of [Formula: see text] largest adjacency eigenvalues of a connected graph.

Lower and upper bounds for the Laplacian energy-like (LEL) molecular structure descriptor are obtained, better than those previously known. These bonds are in terms of number of vertices and edges of the underlying molecular graph and of graph complexity (number of spanning trees)

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.

AbstractFor a (molecular) graph G with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G), the first Zagreb index of G is defined as, where dG(vi) is the degree of vertex vi in G. Recently Xu et al. introduced two graphical invariantsandnamed as first multiplicative Zagreb coindex and second multiplicative Zagreb coindex, respectively. The Narumi-Katayama index of a graph G, denoted by NK(G), is equal to the product of the degrees of the vertices of G, that is, NK(G) =. The irregularity index t(G) of G is defined as the number of distinct terms in the degree sequence of G. In this paper, we give some lower and upper bounds on the first Zagreb index M1(G) of graphs and trees in terms of number of vertices, irregularity index, maxi- mum degree, and characterize the extremal graphs. Moreover, we obtain some lower and upper bounds on the (first and second) multiplicative Zagreb coindices of graphs and characterize the extremal graphs. Finally, we present some relations between first Zagreb index and Narumi-Katayama index, and (first and second) multiplicative Zagreb index and coindices of graphs.

The resistance distance between two vertices of a connected graphGis defined as the effective resistance between them in the corresponding electrical network constructed fromGby replacing each edge ofGwith a unit resistor. The Kirchhoff index ofGis the sum of resistance distances between all pairs of vertices. In this paper, general bounds for the Kirchhoff index are given via the independence number and the clique number, respectively. Moreover, lower and upper bounds for the Kirchhoff index of planar graphs and fullerene graphs are investigated.
