The \emph{Wiener index} is a widely studied topological index of graphs. One of the main problems in the area is to determine which graphs of given properties attain the extremal values of Wiener index. In this paper we resolve an open…

The Wiener index of a network, introduced by the chemist Harry Wiener, is the sum of distances between all pairs of nodes in the network. This index, originally used in chemical graph representations of the non-hydrogen atoms of a molecule,…

Let $G$ be a nonempty simple graph with a vertex set $V(G)$ and an edge set $E(G)$. For every injective vertex labeling $f:V(G)\to\mathbb{Z}$, there are two induced edge labelings, namely $f^+:E(G)\to\mathbb{Z}$ defined by…

Continuous 2-dimensional space is often discretized by considering a mesh of weighted cells. In this work we study how well a weighted mesh approximates the space, with respect to shortest paths. We consider a shortest path $…

Recent papers have formulated the problem of learning graphs from data as an inverse covariance estimation with graph Laplacian constraints. While such problems are convex, existing methods cannot guarantee that solutions will have specific…

Let $S\subseteq V(G)$ and $\pi_{G}(S)$ denote the maximum number $t$ of edge-disjoint paths $P_{1},P_{2},\ldots,P_{t}$ in a graph $G$ such that $V(P_{i})\cap V(P_{j})=S$ for any $i,j\in\{1,2,\ldots,t\}$ and $i\neq j$. If $S=V(G)$, then…

Vertex splitting is a graph operation that replaces a vertex $v$ with two nonadjacent new vertices and makes each neighbor of $v$ adjacent with one or both of the introduced vertices. Vertex splitting has been used in contexts from circuit…

We propose a random bipartite graph with weights assigned to both parts of the vertex sets. Edges are formed independently with probabilities that depend on these weights. This bipartite graph naturally gives rise to a random intersection…

For any graph $G=(V,E)$ with maximum degree $\Delta$ and without isolated edges, and a positive integer $r$, by $\chi'_{\Sigma,r}(G)$ we denote the $r$-distant sum distinguishing index of $G$. This is the least integer $k$ for which a…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal {S}$ be a subset of $Z$. A vertex-coloring $\mathcal {S}$-edge-weighting of $G$ is an assignment of weight $s$ by the elements of $\mathcal {S}$ to each edge of $G$ so that adjacent vertices have different…

Let G be a simple connected graph having vertex set V and edge set E. The vertex-set and edge-set of G denoted by V(G) and E(G), respectively. The length of the smallest path between two vertices is called the distance. Mathematical…

We study a variant of the standard random intersection graph model ($G(n,m,F,H)$) in which random weights are assigned to both vertex types in the bipartite structure. Under certain assumptions on the distributions of these weights, the…

The vertex $k$-partiteness $v_k(G)$ of graph $G$ is defined as the fewest number of vertices whose deletion from $G$ yields a $k$-partite graph. In this paper, we introduce two concepts: monotonic decreasing topological index and monotonic…

We study the properties of several proximity measures for the vertices of weighted multigraphs and multidigraphs. Unlike the classical distance for the vertices of connected graphs, these proximity measures are applicable to weighted…

Due to their capacity to encode rich structural information, labeled graphs are often used for modeling various kinds of objects such as images, molecules, and chemical compounds. If pattern recognition problems such as clustering and…

The transmission of a vertex $v$ in a (chemical) graph $G$ is the sum of distances from $v$ to other vertices in $G$. If any two vertices of $G$ have different transmissions, then $G$ is transmission irregular. The Wiener index $W(G)$ of a…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple undirected and connected graph on $n$ vertices. The Graovac--Ghorbani index of a graph $G$ is defined as $$ABC_{GG}(G)= \sum_{uv \in E(G)} \sqrt{\frac{n_{u}+n_{v}-2} {n_{u} n_{v}}},$$ where $n_u$ is the number of…
