We introduce a degree-based variable topological index inspired on the power (or generalized) mean. We name this new index as the mean Sombor index: $mSO_\alpha(G) = \sum_{uv \in E(G)} \left[\left( d_u^\alpha+d_v^\alpha \right) /2…

In this paper, we refer to a asymptotic degree sequence as $\mathscr{D}=(d_1,d_2,\dots,d_n)$. The examination of topological indices on trees gives us a general overview through bounds to find the maximum and minimum bounds which reflect…

In this paper, we find some bounds for the Sombor index of the graph G by triangle inequality, arithmetic index, geometric index, forgotten index (F(G)), arithmetic-geometric (AG) index, geometric-arithmetic (GA) index, symmetric division…

A set $S$ of vertices in $G$ is a semitotal dominating set of $G$ if it is a dominating set of $G$ and every vertex in $S$ is within distance $2$ of another vertex of $S$. The \emph{semitotal domination number}, $\gamma_{t2}(G)$, is the…

Let $G$ be a connected graph having more than two vertices and let $d_i$ denote the degree of vertex $v_i$ in $G$. Let $E(G)$ represent the edge set of $G$. Then, the augmented Sombor (ASO) index of $G$ is defined as $ASO(G) = \sum_{v_i v_j…

The general Sombor index of $G$ is defined as $SO_{\alpha}(G)= \sum_{uv\in G}\left(d^2_{G}(u)+d^2_{G}(v)\right)^{\alpha}$. For $0<\alpha<1$, we have the upper bound of $SO_{\alpha}(G)$ on unicyclic graphs with a fixed diameter, and the…

The Sombor index is a topological index in graph theory defined by Gutman in 2021. In this article we find the maximum Sombor index of unicyclic graphs with a fixed number of pendant vertices. We also provide the unique graph among the…

This paper considers the classic Online Steiner Forest problem where one is given a (weighted) graph $G$ and an arbitrary set of $k$ terminal pairs $\{\{s_1,t_1\},\ldots ,\{s_k,t_k\}\}$ that are required to be connected. The goal is to…

A vertex of degree one in a tree is called an end vertex and a vertex of degree at least three is called a branch vertex. For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_2$ be the minimum degree sum of two nonadjacent vertices in $G$. We consider tree…

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, the $\gamma$-graph of $G$, denoted $G(\gamma) = (V(\gamma), E(\gamma))$, is the graph whose vertex set is the collection of minimum dominating sets, or $\gamma$-sets of $G$, and two $\gamma$-sets are adjacent in…

For a graph $G$ without isolated vertices, the inverse degree of a graph $G$ is defined as $ID(G)=\sum_{u\in V(G)}d(u)^{-1}$ where $d(u)$ is the number of vertices adjacent to the vertex $u$ in $G$. By replacing $-1$ by any non-zero real…

A tree $T$ in an edge-colored graph is a {\it proper tree} if no two adjacent edges of $T$ receive the same color. Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and $k$ be a fixed integer with $2\le k\le n$. For a vertex subset $S \subseteq…

We say that a graph $F$ can be embedded into a graph $G$ if $G$ contains an isomorphic copy of $F$ as a subgraph. Guo and Volkmann \cite{GV} conjectured that if $G$ is a connected graph with at least $n$ vertices and minimum degree at least…
