Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The energy $E(G)$ of the graph $G$ is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of $G$. The Randi\'{c} matrix of $G$, denoted by $R(G)$, is defined as the $n\times n$ matrix whose…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$, and $d_i$ the degree of a vertex $v_i$ of $G$. The Randi\'c matrix ${\bf R}=(r_{ij})$ of $G$ is defined by $r_{ij} = 1 / \sqrt{d_jd_j}$ if the vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ are adjacent in $G$ and $r_{ij}=0$…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V(G) = \{v_1, v_2,..., v_n\}$. The Randi\'{c} matrix of $G$, denoted by $R(G)$, is defined as the $n\times n$ matrix whose $(i,j)$-entry is $(d_id_j)^{\frac{-1}{2}}$ if $v_i$ and $v_j$ are adjacent…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$ and $v_{i}\in V$, denote by $d_{v_{i}}$ (or $d_{i}$ for short) the degree of vertex $v_{i}$. The $p$-Sombor matrix $\textbf{S}_{\textbf{p}}(G)$ ($p\neq0$) of a graph $G$ is a square matrix, where the $(i,j)$-entry is…

The sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of a graph is called the energy of the graph. We study the problem of finding graphs with extremal energy within specified classes of graphs. We develop tools for treating such problems and…

A caterpillar tree is a connected, acyclic, graph in which all vertices are either a member of a central path, or joined to that central path by a single edge. In other words, caterpillar trees are the class of trees which become path…

This paper investigates topological indices for the greedy tree $\mathcal{T}_\mathscr{D}$ associated with a graphic degree sequence $\mathscr{D} = (d_1 \geqslant d_2 \geqslant \dots \geqslant d_n)$ of a tree. A fundamental challenge in the…

In this paper, we obtain upper bounds for the geometric Ramsey numbers of trees. We prove that $R_c(T_n,H_m)=(n-1)(m-1)+1$ if $T_n$ is a caterpillar and $H_m$ is a Hamiltonian outerplanar graph on $m$ vertices. Moreover, if $T_n$ has at…

In this paper, we consider the Randi\'{c} energy $RE$ of simple connected graphs. We provide upper bounds for $RE$ in terms of the number of vertices and the nullity of the graph. We present families of graphs that satisfy the Conjecture…

The energy $En(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined as the sum of the absolute values of its eigenvalues. The Hosoya index $Z(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the number of independent edge subsets of $G$, including the empty set. For any given degree…

The burning number is a recently introduced graph parameter indicating the spreading speed of content in a graph through its edges. While the conjectured upper bound on the necessary numbers of time steps until all vertices are reached is…

We describe all the trees with the property that the corresponding edge ideal of their line graph has a linear resolution. As a consequence, we give a complete characterization of those trees $T$ for which the line graph $L(T)$ is…

In this paper, we investigate the structures of an extremal tree which has the minimal number of subtrees in the set of all trees with the given degree sequence of a tree. In particular, the extremal trees must be caterpillar and but in…

The zeroth-order general Randi\'c index (usually denoted by $R_{\alpha}^{0}$) and variable sum exdeg index (denoted by $SEI_{a}$) of a graph $G$ are defined as $R_{\alpha}^{0}(G)= \sum_{v\in V(G)} (d_{v})^{\alpha}$ and $SEI_{a}(G)=…

Given a graph H, we call a graph $\textit{H-free}$ if it does not contain H as a subgraph. The planar Tur\'an number of a graph H, denoted by $ex_{\mathcal{P}}(n, H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a planar H-free graph on n vertices. A…

The resolvent energy of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is defined as $ER=\sum_{i=1}^n (n-\lambda_i)^{-1}$, where $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\ldots,\lambda_n$ are the eigenvalues of $G$. In a recent work [Gutman et al., {\it MATCH Commun. Math. Comput.…

Given a finite Abelian group $(A,+)$, consider a tree $T$ with $|A|$ vertices. The labeling $f \colon V (T) \rightarrow A$ of the vertices of some graph $G$ induces an edge labeling in $G$, thus the edge $uv$ receives the label $f (u) + f…

The aim of this paper is to study some parameters of simple graphs related with the degree of the vertices. So, our main tool is the $n\times n$ matrix ${\cal A}$ whose ($i,j$)-entry is $$ a_{ij}= \left\lbrace \begin{array}{ll}…

A $p$-caterpillar is a caterpillar such that every non-leaf vertex is adjacent to exactly $p$ leaves. We give a tight minimum degree condition for a graph to have a spanning $p$-caterpillar.
