Let $G$ be a connected graph and $\mathcal{P}(G)$ a graph parameter. We say that $\mathcal{P}(G)$ is feasible if $\mathcal{P}(G)$ satisfies the following properties: (I) $\mathcal{P}(G)\leq \mathcal{P}(G_{uv})$, if $G_{uv}=G[u\to v]$ for…

A perfect matching in a graph $G$ is a set of nonadjacent edges covering every vertex of $G$. Motivated by recent progress on the relations between the eigenvalues and the matching number of a graph, in this paper, we aim to present a…

We derive attainable upper bounds on the algebraic connectivity (spectral gap) of a regular graph in terms of its diameter and girth. This bound agrees with the well-known Alon-Boppana-Friedman bound for graphs of even diameter, but is an…

Let $G$ be a graph with adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and degree diagonal matrix $D (G)$. In 2017, Nikiforov [Appl. Anal. Discrete Math., 11 (2017) 81--107] defined the matrix $A_\alpha(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1-\alpha)A(G)$ for any real…

The eccentric connectivity index of a connected graph $G$ is the sum over all vertices $v$ of the product $d_{G}(v) e_{G}(v)$, where $d_{G}(v)$ is the degree of $v$ in $G$ and $e_{G}(v)$ is the maximum distance between $v$ and any other…

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…

Let $G$ be a finite, connected graph and $v$ a vertex of $G$. The average distance and the eccentricity of $v$ in $G$ are defined as the arithmetic mean and the maximum, respectively, of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$.…

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, a subset $F\subset V(G)$ is called an $R_k$-vertex-cut of $G$ if $G -F$ is disconnected and each vertex $u \in V(G)- F$ has at least $k$ neighbors in $G -F$. The $R_k$-vertex-connectivity of $G$, denoted by…

A graph is said to be \emph{total-colored} if all the edges and the vertices of the graph are colored. A path $P$ in a total-colored graph $G$ is called a \emph{total-proper path} if $(i)$ any two adjacent edges of $P$ are assigned distinct…

The double graph of a graph $G$ is defined as $\mathcal{D}[G]$ = $G \times T_2$, where \(T_2\) is the total graph with 2 vertices and $\times$ stands for the Kronecker product of graphs. In this paper, sufficient conditions for double…

A graph $G$ is equimatchable if any matching in $G$ is a subset of a maximum-size matching. It is known that any $2$-connected equimatchable graph is either bipartite or factor-critical. We prove that for any vertex $v$ of a $2$-connected…

The $A_{\alpha}$-matrix of a graph $G$ is the convex linear combination of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees $D(G)$, i.e., $A_{\alpha}(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1 - \alpha)A(G)$, where $0\leq\alpha \leq1$. The…
