We determine the minimum sum--connectivity index of bicyclic graphs with $n$ vertices and matching number $m$, where $2\le m\le \lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor$, the minimum and the second minimum, as well as the maximum and the second maximum sum--connectivity indices of bicyclic graphs with $n\ge 5$ vertices. The extremal graphs are characterized.
The harmonic index of a graph $G$, is defined as the sum of weights $\frac{2}{d(u)+d(v)}$ of all edges $uv$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ is the degree of the vertex $u$ in $G$. In this paper we find the minimum harmonic index of bicyclic graph of order $n$ and diameter $d$. We also characterized all bicyclic graphs reaching the minimum bound.
In this paper, we focus on the index ( largest eigenvalue) of the adjacency matrix of connected signed graphs. We give some general results on the index when the corresponding signed graph is perturbed. As applications, we determine the first five largest index among all unbalanced bicyclic graphs on n >= 36 vertices together with the corresponding extremal signed graphs whose index attain these values.
Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$, let $λ_1(G),λ_2(G),...,λ_n(G)$ be the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of $G$. The Esrada index of $G$ is defined as $EE(G)=\sum_{i=1}^{n}e^{λ_i(G)}$. In this paper we determine the unique graph with maximum Estrada index among bicyclic graphs with fixed order.
Let $G_w$ be a weighted graph. The number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues in the spectrum of $G_w$ are called positive inertia index, negative inertia index and nullity of $G_w$, and denoted by $i_{+}(G_w)$, $i_{-}(G_w)$, $i_{0}(G_w)$, respectively. In this paper, sharp lower bound on the positive (resp. negative) inertia index of weighted bicyclic graphs of order $n$ with pendant vertices is obtained. Moreover, all the weighted bicyclic graphs of order $n$ with at most two positive, two negative and at least $n-4$ zero eigenvalues are identified, respectively.
The revised Szeged index $Sz^*(G)$ is defined as $Sz^*(G)=\sum_{e=uv \in E}(n_u(e)+ n_0(e)/2)(n_v(e)+ n_0(e)/2),$ where $n_u(e)$ and $n_v(e)$ are, respectively, the number of vertices of $G$ lying closer to vertex $u$ than to vertex $v$ and the number of vertices of $G$ lying closer to vertex $v$ than to vertex $u$, and $n_0(e)$ is the number of vertices equidistant to $u$ and $v$. Hansen used the AutoGraphiX and made the following conjecture about the revised Szeged index for a connected bicyclic graph $G$ of order $n \geq 6$: $$ Sz^*(G)\leq \{{array}{ll} (n^3+n^2-n-1)/4,& {if $n$ is odd}, (n…
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.
The weighted adjacency matrix $A_{f}(G)$ of a simple graph $G=(V,E)$ is the $|V|\times|V|$ matrix whose $ij$-entry equals $f(d_{i},d_j)$, where $f(x,y)$ is a symmetric function such that $f(d_i,d_j)>0$ if $ij\in E$ and $f(d_i,d_j)=0$ if $ij\notin E$ and $d_i$ is the degree of the vertex $i$. In this paper, we determine the unique graph having the largest spectral radius of $A_{f}(G)$ among all the bicyclic graphs under the assumption that $f(x,y)$ is increasing and convex in $x$ and $f(x_1,y_1)\geq f(x_2,y_2)$ when $|x_1-y_1|>|x_2-y_2|$ and $x_1+y_1=x_2+y_2$. Moreover, we determine the unique …
The zeroth-order general Randić index $R^{0}_{a}$ of a digraph $D$ is the sum of $(d^{+}_{v})^{a}+(d^{-}_{w})^{a}$ over all arcs $vw$ of $D$, where $a$, $d^{+}_{v}$ and $d^{-}_{w}$ are an arbitrary real number, the out-degree of the vertex $v$ and the in-degree of the vertex $w$, respectively. We determine maximum zeroth-order general Randić index of oriented trees, unicyclic and bicyclic graphs in terms of matching number and order in this paper.
A $\mathbb{T}$-gain graph is a triple $Φ=(G,\mathbb{T},φ)$ consisting of a graph $G=(V,E)$, the circle group $\mathbb{T}=\{z\in C: |z|=1\}$ and a gain function $φ:\overrightarrow{E}\rightarrow \mathbb{T}$ such that $φ(e_{ij})=φ(e_{ji})^{-1}=\overline{φ(e_{ji})}$. The rank of $\mathbb{T}$-gain graph $Φ$, denoted by $r(Φ)$, is the rank of the adjacency matrix of $Φ$. In 2015, Yu, Qu and Tu [ G. H. Yu, H. Qu, J. H. Tu, Inertia of complex unit gain graphs, Appl. Math. Comput. 265(2015) 619--629 ] obtained some properties of inertia of a $\mathbb{T}$-gain graph. They characterized the $\mathbb{T}$-…
Topological indices are a class of numerical invariants that predict certain physical and chemical properties of molecules. Recently, two novel topological indices, named as Sombor index and reduced Sombor index, were introduced by Gutman, defined as $$SO(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{d_{G}^{2}(u)+d_{G}^{2}(v)},$$ $$SO_{red}(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{(d_{G}(u)-1)^{2}+(d_{G}(v)-1)^{2}},$$ where $d_{G}(u)$ denotes the degree of vertex $u$ in $G$. In this paper, our aim is to order the chemical trees, chemical unicyclic graphs, chemical bicyclic graphs and chemical tricyclic graphs with respect to So…
In a connected graph G, the distance between two vertices of G is the length of a shortest path between these vertices. The eccentricity of a vertex u in G is the largest distance between u and any other vertex of G. The total-eccentricity index τ(G) is the sum of eccentricities of all vertices of G. In this paper, we find extremal trees, unicyclic and bicyclic graphs with respect to total-eccentricity index. Moreover, we find extremal conjugated trees with respect to total-eccentricity index.
For a symmetric bivariable function $f(x,y)$, let the {\it connectivity function} of a connected graph $G$ be $M_f(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}f(d(u),d(v))$, where $d(u)$ is the degree of vertex $u$. In this paper, we prove that for an escalating (de-escalating) function $f(x,y)$, there exists a BFS-graph with the maximum (minimum) connectivity function $M_f(G)$ among all graphs with a $c-$cyclic degree sequence $π=(d_1,d_2, \ldots, d_n)$ and $d_n=1$, and obtain the majorization theorem for connectivity function for unicyclic and bicyclic degree sequences. Moreover, some applications of graph invarian…
The number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues in the spectrum of the (edge)-weighted graph $G$ are called positive inertia index, negative inertia index and nullity of the weighted graph $G$, and denoted by $i_+(G)$, $i_-(G)$, $i_0(G)$, respectively. In this paper, the positive and negative inertia index of weighted trees, weighted unicyclic graphs and weighted bicyclic graphs are discussed, the methods of calculating them are obtained.
For a simple connected graph $G=(V,E)$, let $d(u)$ be the degree of the vertex $u$ of $G$. The general Sombor index of $G$ is defined as $$SO_α(G)=\sum_{uv\in E} \left[d(u)^2+d(v)^2\right]^α$$ where $SO(G)=SO_{0.5}(G)$ is the recently invented Sombor index. In this paper, we show that in the class of connected graphs with a fixed degree sequence (for which the minimum degree being equal to one), there exists a special extremal $BFS$-graph with minimum general Sombor index for $0<α<1$ (resp. maximum general Sombor index for either $α>1$ or $α<0$). Moreover, for any given tree, unicyclic, and bi…
The Harary index of a graph is defined as the sum of reciprocals of distances between all pairs of vertices of the graph. In this paper we provide an upper bound of the Harary index in terms of the vertex or edge connectivity of a graph. We characterize the unique graph with maximum Harary index among all graphs with given number of cut vertices or vertex connectivity or edge connectivity. In addition we also characterize the extremal graphs with the second maximum Harary index among the graphs with given vertex connectivity.
The eccentric connectivity index, proposed by Sharma, Goswami and Madan, has been employed successfully for the development of numerous mathematical models for the prediction of biological activities of diverse nature. We now report mathematical properties of the eccentric connectivity index.

We determine the n-vertex trees of diameter with the minimum eccentric connectivity ind…
In this paper we establish all extremal graphs with respect to augmented eccentric connectivity index among all (simple connected) graphs, among trees and among trees with perfect matching. For graphs that turn out to be extremal explicit formulas for the value of augmented eccentric connectivity index are derived.
The general sum-connectivity index of a graph $G$ is defined as $χ_α(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)} {(d(u)+d(v))^α}$, where $d(v)$ denotes the degree of the vertex $v$ in $G$ and $α$ is a real number. In this paper it is deduced the maximum value for the general sum-connectivity index of $n$-vertex trees for $-1.7036\leq α<0$ and of $n$-vertex unicyclic graphs for $-1\le α<0$ respectively, with fixed maximum degree $\triangle $. The corresponding extremal graphs, as well as the $n$-vertex unicyclic graphs with the second maximum general sum-connectivity index for $n\ge 4$ are characterized. This …
The atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index is a degree-based topological index. It was introduced due to its applications in modeling the properties of certain molecular structures and has been since extensively studied. In this note, we examine the influence on the extremal values of the ABC index by various graph parameters. More specifically, we consider the maximum ABC index of connected graphs of given order, with fixed independence number, number of pendent vertices, chromatic number and edge-connectivity respectively. We provide characterizations of extremal structures as well as some conje…
The eccentric connectivity index $ξ^c$ is a novel distance--based molecular structure descriptor that was recently used for mathematical modeling of biological activities of diverse nature. It is defined as $ξ^c (G) = \sum_{v \in V (G)} deg (v) \cdot ε(v)$\,, where $deg (v)$ and $ε(v)$ denote the vertex degree and eccentricity of $v$\,, respectively. We survey some mathematical properties of this index and furthermore support the use of eccentric connectivity index as topological structure descriptor. We present the extremal trees and unicyclic graphs with maximum and minimum eccentric connect…
The leap eccentric connectivity index of $G$ is defined as $$Lξ^{C}(G)=\sum_{v\in V(G)}d_{2}(v|G)e(v|G)$$ where $d_{2}(v|G) $ be the second degree of the vertex $v$ and $e(v|G)$ be the eccentricity of the vertex $v$ in $G$. In this paper, we first give a counterexample for that if $G$ be a graph and $S(G)$ be its the subdivision graph, then each vertex $v\in V(G)$, $e(v|S(G))=2e(v|G)$ by Yarahmadi in \cite{yar14} in Theorem 3.1. And we describe the upper and lower bounds of the leap eccentric connectivity index of four graphs based on subdivision edges, and then give the expressions of the lea…
The second Zagreb index of a graph G is denoted by $M_2(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}d(u)d(v)$. In this paper, we investigate properties of the extremal graphs with the maximum second Zagreb indices with given graphic sequences, in particular graphic bicyclic sequences. Moreover, we obtain the relations of the second Zagreb indices among the extremal graphs with different degree sequences.
The recently developed atom-bond sum-connection (ABS) index is a variation of the well-studied graph-based molecular descriptors connectivity (Randic), atom-bond connectivity, and sum-connectivity indices.We present the minimum ABS index of trees with a given number of pendent vertices in this paper, which provides a solution to the problem proposed by A. Ali, I. Gutman and I. Redzepovic, Atom-Bond Sum-Connectivity Index of Unicyclic Graphs and Some Applications, Electron. J. Math.(2023) 1-7
The eccentric connectivity index $ξ^c$ is a distance--based molecular structure descriptor that was recently used for mathematical modeling of biological activities of diverse nature. We prove that the broom has maximum $ξ^c$ among trees with a fixed maximum vertex degree, and characterize such trees with minimum $ξ^c$\,. In addition, we propose a simple linear algorithm for calculating $ξ^c$ of trees.
Recently in 2021, Gutman introduced the Sombor index of a graph, a novel degree-based topological index. It has been shown that the Sombor index efficiently models the thermodynamic properties of chemical compounds. Assume $\mathbb{B}_n^k$ (resp. $\mathbb{V}_n^k$) comprises all graphs with order $n$ having number of bridges (resp. vertex-connectivity) $k$. Horoldagva & Xu (2021) characterized graphs achieving the maximum Sombor index of graphs in $\mathbb{B}_n^k$. This paper characterizes graphs achieving the minimum Sombor index in $\mathbb{B}_n^k$. Certain auxiliary operation on graphs in $\…
The first geometric-arithmetic (GA) index and atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index are molecular structure descriptors which play a significant role in quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) and quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) studies. Das and Trinajstić [\textit{Chem. Phys. Lett.} \textbf{497} (2010) 149-151] showed that $GA$ index is greater than $ABC$ index for all those graphs (except $K_{1,4}$ and $T^{*}$, see Figure 1) in which the difference between maximum and minimum degree is less than or equal to 3. In this note, it is proved that $GA$ index is greater…
The general sum-connectivity index of a graph $G$ is defined as $χ_α(G)= \sum_{uv\in E(G)} (d_u + d_{v})^α$ where $d_{u}$ is degree of the vertex $u\in V(G)$, $α$ is a real number different from $0$ and $uv$ is the edge connecting the vertices $u,v$. In this note, the problem of characterizing the graphs having extremum $χ_α$ values from a certain collection of polyomino chain graphs is solved for $α<0$. The obtained results together with already known results (concerning extremum values of polyomino chain graphs) give the complete solution of the aforementioned problem.
A connected graph $G$ is said to be $k$-connected if it has more than $k$ vertices and remains connected whenever fewer than $k$ vertices are deleted. In this paper, for a connected graph $G$ with sufficiently large order, we present a tight sufficient condition for $G$ with fixed minimum degree to be $k$-connected based on the $Q$-index. Our result can be viewed as a spectral counterpart of the corresponding Dirac type condition.
Let $q(G)$ denote the $Q$-index of a graph $G$, which is the largest signless Laplacian eigenvalue of $G$. We prove best possible upper bounds of $q(G)$ and best possible lower bounds of $q(\overline{G})$ for a connected graph $G$ to be $k$-connected and maximally connected, respectively. Similar upper bounds of $q(G)$ and lower bounds of $q(\overline{G})$ to assure $G$ to be super-connected are also obtained. Upper bounds of $q(G)$ and lower bounds of $q(\overline{G})$ to assure a connected triangle-free graph $G$ to be $k$-connected, maximally connected and super-connected are also respectiv…
The eccentric connectivity index of a graph $G$, denoted by $ξ^{c}(G)$, defined as $ξ^{c}(G)$ = $\sum_{v \in V(G)}ε(v) \cdot d(v)$, where $ε(v)$ and $d(v)$ denotes the eccentricity and degree of a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$, respectively. The volcano graph $V_{n,d}$ is a graph obtained from a path $P_{d+1}$ and a set $S$ of $n-d-1$ vertices, by joining each vertex in $S$ to a central vertex or vertices of $P_{d+1}$. In (A lower bound on the eccentric connectivity index of a graph, Discrete Applied Math., 160, 248 to 258, (2012)), Morgan et al. proved that $ξ^{c}(G) \geq ξ^{c}(V_{n,d})$ for any …
Let $G$ be a graph and let $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of $G$. The signature $s(G)$ of $G$ is the difference between the positive inertia index and the negative inertia index of $A(G)$. Ma et al. [Positive and negative inertia index of a graph, Linear Algebra and its Applications 438(2013)331-341] conjectured that $-c_3(G)\leq s(G)\leq c_5(G),$ where $c_3(G)$ and $c_5(G)$ respectively denote the number of cycles in $G$ which have length $4k+3$ and $4k+5$ for some integers $k \ge 0$, and proved the conjecture holds for trees, unicyclic or bicyclic graphs. It is known that $s(G)=0$ if $G$ is …
The eccentric connectivity index of a graph $G$ is $ξ^c(G) = \sum_{v \in V(G)}\varepsilon(v)°(v)$, and the eccentric distance sum is $ξ^d(G) = \sum_{v \in V(G)}\varepsilon(v)D(v)$, where $\varepsilon(v)$ is the eccentricity of $v$, and $D(v)$ the sum of distances between $v$ and the other vertices. A lower and an upper bound on $ξ^d(G) - ξ^c(G)$ is given for an arbitrary graph $G$. Regular graphs with diameter at most $2$ and joins of cocktail-party graphs with complete graphs form the graphs that attain the two equalities, respectively. Sharp lower and upper bounds on $ξ^d(T) - ξ^c(T)$ are gi…
Many existing degree based topological indices can be classified as bond incident degree (BID) indices, whose general form is $BID(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}$ $Ψ(d_{u},d_{v})$, where $uv$ is the edge connecting the vertices $u,v$ of the graph $G$, $E(G)$ is the edge set of $G$, $d_{u}$ is the degree of the vertex $u$ and $Ψ$ is a non-negative real valued (symmetric) function of $d_{u}$ and $d_{v}$. Here, it has been proven that if the extension of $Ψ$ to the interval $[0,\infty)$ satisfies certain conditions then the extremal $(n,m)$-graph with respect to the BID index (corresponding to $Ψ$) must co…
A conjecture of AutoGraphiX on the relation between the Randić index $R$ and the algebraic connectivity $a$ of a connected graph $G$ is: $$\frac R a\leq (\frac{n-3+2\sqrt{2}}{2})/(2(1- \cos {\fracπ{n}})) $$ with equality if and only if $G$ is $P_n$, which was proposed by Aouchiche and Hansen [M. Aouchiche and P. Hansen, A survey of automated conjectures in spectral graph theory, {\it Linear Algebra Appl.} {\bf 432}(2010), 2293--2322]. We prove that the conjecture holds for all trees and all connected graphs with edge connectivity $κ'(G)\geq 2$, and if $κ'(G)=1$, the conjecture holds for suffic…
Continuing the recent work of L. Zhong and K. Xu [MATCH Commun. Math. Comput. Chem.71(2014) 627-642], we determine inequalities among several vertex-degree-based topological indices; first geometric-arithmetic index(GA), augmented Zagreb index (AZI), Randi$\acute{c}$ index (R), atom-bond connectivity index (ABC), sum-connectivity index (X)and harmonic index (H).
For a (molecular) graph, the first multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_1(G) $ is the product of the square of every vertex degree, and the second multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_2(G) $ is the product of the products of degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices. In this paper, we explore graphs in terms of (edge) connectivity. The maximum and minimum values of $\prod_1(G) $ and $\prod_2(G) $ of graphs with connectivity at most $k$ are provided. In addition, the corresponding extremal graphs are characterized, and our results extend and enrich some known conclusions.

The modified eccentric connectivity index of a graph is defined as the sum of the products of eccentricity with the total degree of neighboring vertices, over all vertices of the graph. This is a generalization of eccentric connectivity index. In this paper, we derive some upper and lower bounds for the modified eccentric connectivity index in terms of some graph parameters such as number of vertices, number of edges, radius, minimum degree, maximum degree, total eccentricity, the first and second Zagreb indices, Weiner index etc.
Recently Ayyaswamy [1] have introduced a novel concept of the signless Laplacian Estrada index (after here $SLEE$) associated with a graph $G$. After works, we have identified the unique graph with maximum $SLEE$ with a given parameter such as: number of cut vertices, (vertex) connectivity and edge connectivity. In this paper we continue out characterization for two further parameters; diameter and number of cut vertices.
The {\em atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index} is a degree-based molecular descriptor, that found chemical applications. It is well known that among all connected graphs, the graphs with minimal ABC index are trees. A complete characterization of trees with minimal $ABC$ index is still an open problem. In this paper, we present new structural properties of trees with minimal ABC index. Our main results reveal that trees with minimal ABC index do not contain so-called {\em $B_k$-branches}, with $k \geq 5$, and that they do not have more than four $B_4$-branches.
For a graph $G$, the first multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_1(G) $ is the product of squares of vertex degrees, and the second multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_2(G) $ is the product of products of degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices.

The corresponding extremal graphs are characterized with given connectivity at most $k$ and $p$ pendant vertices. In addition, the maximum and minimum values of $\prod_1(G) $ and $\prod_2(G) $ are provided. Our results extend and enr…
The atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index is a degree-based molecular structure descriptor that can be used for modelling thermodynamic properties of organic chemical compounds. Motivated by its applicable potential, a series of investigations have been carried out in the past several years. In this note we first consider graphs with given edge-connectivity that attain the maximum ABC index. In particular, we give an affirmative answer to the conjecture about the structure of graphs with edge-connectivity equal to one that maximize the ABC index, which was recently raised by Zhang, Yang, Wang and…
The {\em atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index} is a degree-based graph topological index that found chemical applications. The problem of complete characterization of trees with minimal $ABC$ index is still an open problem. In~\cite{d-sptmabci-2014}, it was shown that trees with minimal ABC index do not contain so-called {\em $B_k$-branches}, with $k \geq 5$, and that they do not have more than four $B_4$-branches. Our main results here reveal that the number of $B_1$ and $B_2$-branches are also bounded from above by small fixed constants. Namely, we show that trees with minimal ABC index do not…
The geometric--arithmetic indices are widely considered in the chemical graph theory in the last decade. The reason of introducing new indices is to gain prediction of target properties of considered molecules that is better than the prediction obtained by already known indices. In the case of the fifth geometric--arithmetic index hitherto no ability of prediction of some molecule property has been considered. In this paper we investigate correlations between the fifth geometric--arithmetic index and some other degree--based topological indices on the family of octane isomers and polyaromatic …
The Sombor index is one of the geometry-based descriptors, which was defined as $$SO(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{d^{2}(u)+d^{2}(v)},$$ where $d(u)$ (resp. $d(v)$) denotes the degree of vertex $u$ (resp. $v$) in $G$. In this note, we determine the maximum and minimum graphs with respect to the Sombor index among the set of graphs with vertex connectivity (resp. edge connectivity) at most $k$, which solves an open problem on the Sombor index proposed by Hayat and Rehman [On Sombor index of graphs with a given number of cut-vertices, MATCH Commun. Math. Comput. Chem. 89 (2023) 437--450]. For some o…

The {\em atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index} is one of the recently most investigated degree-based molecular structure descriptors, that have applications in chemistry. For a graph $G$, the ABC index is defined as $\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{\frac{(d(u) +d(v)-2)}{d(u)d(v)}}$, where $d(u)$ is the degree of vertex $u$ in $G$ and $E(G)$ is the set of edges of $G$. Despite many attempts in the last few years, it is still an open problem to characterize trees with minimal $ABC$ index. In this paper, we present an efficient approach of computing trees with minimal ABC index, by considering the degree se…
The eccentric-connectivity index of a graph G is the sum of the products of the eccentricity and the degree of each vertex in G. In this paper, we define four new invariants related to the eccentric-connectivity index and obtain upper bounds for total transformation graphs which are some generalizations of total graph.
We present the bounds in terms of other important graph parameters for general Sombor index which generalises both the forgotten index and the Sombor index. We also explore the Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result for the general Sombor index. We present further the relations between general Sombor index and other generalised indices: general Randić index and general sum-connectivity index.
