The energy of a molecular graph is a popular parameter that is defined as the sum of the absolute values of a graph's eigenvalues. It is well known that the energy is related to the matching polynomial and thus also to the Hosoya index via…

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.…

An ordered $r$-uniform matching of size $n$ is a collection of $n$ pairwise disjoint $r$-subsets of a linearly ordered set of $rn$ vertices. For $n=2$, such a matching is called an $r$-pattern, as it represents one of $\tfrac12\binom{2r}r$…

A $3$-uniform hypergraph is a generalization of simple graphs where each hyperedge is a subset of vertices of size $3$. The degree of a vertex in a hypergraph is the number of hyperedges incident with it. The degree sequence of a hypergraph…
