Let $G=(V,\overrightarrow{E})$ be a graph with some prescribed orientation for the edges and $\Gamma$ be an arbitrary group. If $f\in \mathrm{Inv}(\Gamma)$ be an anti-involution then the skew gain graph $\Phi_f=(G,\Gamma,\varphi,f)$ is such…

Let $G$ be a connected finite graph with vertex set $V(G)$. The eccentricity $e(v)$ of a vertex $v$ is the distance from $v$ to a vertex farthest from $v$. The average eccentricity of $G$ is defined as $\frac{1}{|V(G)|}\sum_{v \in…

A vertex set $S$ of a graph $G$ is a \emph{dominating set} if each vertex of $G$ either belongs to $S$ or is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. The \emph{domination number} $\gamma(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of $S$ as $S$ varies over…

For any graph $G$ of order $p$, a bijection $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ is called a numbering of the graph $G$ of order $p$. The strength $str_f(G)$ of a numbering $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ of $G$ is defined by $str_f(G) = \max\{f(u)+f(v)\; |\; uv\in…

Let $G$ be a graph. Denote by $d_x$, $E(G)$, and $D(G)$ the degree of a vertex $x$ in $G$, the set of edges of $G$, and the degree set of $G$, respectively. This paper proposes to investigate (both from mathematical and applications points…

We define various notions of energy of a set of vertices in a graph, which generalize two of the most widely studied graphical indices: the Wiener index and the Harary index. We provide a new proof of a result due to Douthett and Krantz,…
