Abstract

Given a simple connected non-directed graph G=(V(G),E(G))G=(V(G),E(G)), we consider two families of graph invariants: RXΣ(G)=uvE(G)F(ru,rv)RX_\Sigma(G) = \sum_{uv \in E(G)} F(r_u,r_v) (which has gained interest recently) and RXΠ(G)=uvE(G)F(ru,rv)RX_\Pi(G) = \prod_{uv \in E(G)} F(r_u,r_v) (that we introduce in this work); where uvuv denotes the edge of GG connecting the vertices uu and vv, rur_u is the Revan degree of the vertex uu, and FF is a function of the Revan vertex degrees. Here, ru=Δ+δdur_u = \Delta + \delta - d_u with Δ\Delta and δ\delta the maximum and minimum degrees among the vertices of GG and dud_u is the degree of the vertex uu. Particularly, we apply both RXΣ(G)RX_\Sigma(G) and RXΠ(G)X_\Pi(G) on two models of random graphs: Erd\"os-R\'enyi graphs and random geometric graphs. By a thorough computational study we show that <RXΣ(G)>\left< RX_\Sigma(G) \right> and <lnRXΠ(G)>\left< \ln RX_\Pi(G) \right>, normalized to the order of the graph, scale with the average Revan degree <r>\left< r \right>; here <>\left< \cdot \right> denotes the average over an ensemble of random graphs. Moreover, we provide analytical expressions for several graph invariants of both families in the dense graph limit.
