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 forgotten topological index of a graph $G$, denoted by $F(G)$, is defined as the sum of weights $d(u)^{2}+d(v)^{2}$ over all edges $uv$ of $G$ , where $d(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds…
The eccentricity of a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$ is the distance between $u$ and a vertex farthest from it; the eccentric sequence of $G$ is the nondecreasing sequence of the eccentricities of $G$. In this paper, we determine the…
The terminal Wiener index of a tree is the sum of distances for all pairs of pendent vertices, which recently arises in the study of phylogenetic tree reconstruction and the neighborhood of trees. This paper presents a sharp upper and lower…
Consider a simple graph $G$ with vertex set $V = \{v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_n\}$ and edge set $E$. The diminished Sombor matrix $M_{DS}(G)$ is constructed such that its $(i, j)$ entry is $\frac{\sqrt{d_i^2+d_j^2}}{d_i+d_j}$ if vertices $v_iv_j…
In a study on the structure--dependency of the total $\pi$-electron energy from 1972, Trinajsti\'c and one of the present authors have shown that it depends on the sums $\sum_{v\in V}d(v)^2$ and $\sum_{v\in V}d(v)^3$, where $d(v)$ is the…
This paper surveys some recent results and progress on the extremal prob- lems in a given set consisting of all simple connected graphs with the same graphic degree sequence. In particular, we study and characterize the extremal graphs…
The distance $d(u,v)$ between the vertices $u$ and $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is defined as the number of edges in a minimal path connecting them. The \emph{transmission} of a vertex $v$ of $G$ is defined by $\sigma(v)=\sum\limits_{u\in…
The aim of this work is to obtain new inequalities for the variable symmetric division deg index $SDD_\alpha(G) = \sum_{uv \in E(G)} (d_u^\alpha/d_v^\alpha+d_v^\alpha/d_u^\alpha)$, and to characterize graphs extremal with respect to them.…
For a graph $H$, the {\em extremal number} $ex(n,H)$ is the maximum number of edges in a graph of order $n$ not containing a subgraph isomorphic to $H$. Let $\delta(H)>0$ and $\Delta(H)$ denote the minimum degree and maximum degree of $H$,…
The relation between the Wiener index $W(G)$ and the eccentricity $\varepsilon(G)$ of a graph $G$ is studied. Lower and upper bounds on $W(G)$ in terms of $\varepsilon(G)$ are proved and extremal graphs characterized. A Nordhaus-Gaddum type…
In this paper we investigate the extremal relationship between two well-studied graph parameters: the order of the largest homogeneous set in a graph $G$ and the maximal number of distinct degrees appearing in an induced subgraph of $G$,…
The Steiner distance of vertices in a set $S$ is the minimum size of a connected subgraph that contain these vertices. The sum of the Steiner distances over all sets $S$ of cardinality $k$ is called the Steiner $k$-Wiener index and studied…
Let $k\geq2$ be an integer. A tree $T$ is called a $k$-tree if $d_T(v)\leq k$ for each $v\in V(T)$, that is, the maximum degree of a $k$-tree is at most $k$. Let $\lambda_1(D(G))$ denote the distance spectral radius in $G$, where $D(G)$…
The modified Albertson index, denoted by $A\!^*\!$, of a graph $G$ is defined as $A\!^*\!(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)} |(d_{u})^{2}- (d_{v})^{2}|$, where $d_u$, $d_v$ denote the degrees of the vertices $u$, $v$, respectively, of $G$ and $E(G)$ is…
We describe the structure of those graphs that have largest spectral radius in the class of all connected graphs with a given degree sequence. We show that in such a graph the degree sequence is non-increasing with respect to an ordering of…
In this paper we study the following problem. Let $A$ be a fixed graph, and let $\hom(G,A)$ denote the number of homomorphisms from a graph $G$ to $A$. Furthermore, let $v(G)$ denote the number of vertices of $G$, and let $\mathcal{G}_d$…
The distinguishing number (index) $D(G)$ ($D'(G)$) of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has an vertex (edge) labeling with $d$ labels that is preserved only by the trivial automorphism. It is known that for every graph $G$…
