Let $G = (V_G,E_G)$ be a simple connected graph. The eccentric distance sum of $G$ is defined as $\xi^d(G)=\sum_{v \in V_G}\,\varepsilon_G(v)D_G(v),$ where $\varepsilon_G(v)$ is the eccentricity of the vertex $v$ and $D_G(v)=\sum_{u \in…

Let $G$ be a finite, connected graph and $v$ a vertex of $G$. The average distance and the eccentricity of $v$ in $G$ are defined as the arithmetic mean and the maximum, respectively, of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$.…
Let $\mathcal {T}^{\Delta}_n$ denote the set of trees of order $n$, in which the degree of each vertex is bounded by some integer $\Delta$. Suppose that every tree in $\mathcal {T}^{\Delta}_n$ is equally likely. We show that the number of…
Designing well-connected graphs is a fundamental problem that frequently arises in various contexts across science and engineering. The weighted number of spanning trees, as a connectivity measure, emerges in numerous problems and plays a…
We study the problem of how well a tree metric is able to preserve the sum of pairwise distances of an arbitrary metric. This problem is closely related to low-stretch metric embeddings and is interesting by its own flavor from the line of…
For a connected graph, a {\em minimum vertex separator} is a minimum set of vertices whose removal creates at least two connected components. The vertex connectivity of the graph refers to the size of the minimum vertex separator and a…
In this paper, we investigate the connectivity of friends-and-strangers graphs, which were introduced by Defant and Kravitz in 2020. We begin by considering friends-and-strangers graphs arising from two random graphs and consider the…
We give new general formulas for the asymptotics of the number of spanning trees of a large graph. A special case answers a question of McKay (1983) for regular graphs. The general answer involves a quantity for infinite graphs that we call…
Harry Buhrman et al gave an Omega(sqrt n) lower bound for monotone graph properties in the adjacency matrix query model. Their proof is based on the polynomial method. However for some properties stronger lower bounds exist. We give an…

Cut vertices are often used as a measure of nodes' importance within a network. They are those nodes whose failure disconnects a graph. Let N(G) be the number of connected induced subgraphs of a graph $G$. In this work, we investigate the…
