Connected graphs with minimum degree $\delta$ and at least $2\delta + 1$ vertices have paths with at least $2\delta + 1$ vertices. We provide a characterization of all such graphs which have no longer paths.

A subset D of the vertex set of a graph G, is a dominating set if every vertex in V−D is adjacent to at least one vertex in D. The domination number γ(G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. A subset of V−D, which is also a dominating set of G is called an inverse dominating set of G with respect to D. The inverse domination number γ′(G) is the minimum cardinality of the inverse dominating sets. Domke et al. (2004) characterized connected graphs G with γ(G)+γ′(G)=n, where n is the number of vertices in G. It is the purpose of this paper to give a complete characterization of graphs G with minimum degree at least two and γ(G)+γ′(G)=n−1.

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a given finite (possibly empty) family of connected graphs, each containing a cycle, and let $G$ be an arbitrary finite $\mathcal{H}$-free graph with minimum degree at least $k$. For $p \in [0,1]$, we form a $p$-random subgraph $G_p$ of $G$ by independently keeping each edge of $G$ with probability $p$. Extending a classical result of Ajtai, Komlós, and Szemerédi, we prove that for every positive $\varepsilon$, there exists a positive $\delta$ (depending only on $\varepsilon$) such that the following holds: If $p \geq \frac{1+\varepsilon}{k}$, then with probability tending to $1$ as $k \to \infty$, the random graph $G_p$ contains a cycle of length at least $n_{\mathcal{H}}(\delta k)$, where $n_\mathcal{H}(k)>k$ is the minimum number of vertices in an $\mathcal{H}$-free graph of average degree at least $k$. Thus in particular $G_p$ as above typically contains a cycle of length at least linear in $k$.

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).

Let G be a simple undirected graph containing n vertices. Assume G is connected. Let D ( G ) be the distance matrix, D L ( G ) be the distance Laplacian, D Q ( G ) be the distance signless Laplacian, and T r ( G ) be the diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions, respectively. Furthermore, we denote by D α ( G ) the generalized distance matrix, i.e., D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] . In this paper, we establish some new sharp bounds for the generalized distance spectral radius of G, making use of some graph parameters like the order n, the diameter, the minimum degree, the second minimum degree, the transmission degree, the second transmission degree and the parameter α , improving some bounds recently given in the literature. We also characterize the extremal graphs attaining these bounds. As an special cases of our results, we will be able to cover some of the bounds recently given in the literature for the case of distance matrix and distance signless Laplacian matrix. We also obtain new bounds for the k-th generalized distance eigenvalue.

The connective eccentricity index (CEI for short) of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the degree of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the eccentricity of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we characterize the unique graphs with maximum CEI from three classes of graphs: the [Formula: see text]-vertex graphs with fixed connectivity and diameter, the [Formula: see text]-vertex graphs with fixed connectivity and independence number, and the [Formula: see text]-vertex graphs with fixed connectivity and minimum degree.
