For a connected graph $G$, its resistance distance matrix is denoted by $R(G)$. A graph is called resistance regular if all the row (or column) sums of $R(G)$ are equal. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a simple connected…

The notion of resistance distance, introduced by Klein and Randi\'c, has become a fundamental concept in spectral graph theory and network analysis, as it captures both the structural and electrical properties of a graph. The associated…

Any graph can be considered as a network of resistors, each of which has a resistance of $1 \Omega.$ The resistance distance $r_{ij}$ between a pair of vertices $i$ and $j$ in a graph is defined as the effective resistance between $i$ and…

In this note we consider the bent linear 2-tree and provide an explicit formula for the resistance distance $r_{G_n}(1,n)$ between the first and last vertices of the graph. We call the graph $G_n$ with vertex set $V(G_n) = \{ 1, 2, \ldots,…

The \emph{resistance matrix} of a simple connected graph $G$ is denoted by $R$, and is defined by $R =(r_{ij})$, where $r_{ij}$ is the resistance distance between the vertices $i$ and $j$ of $G$. In this paper, we consider the resistance…

The resistance $r(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges that have to be removed from $G$ to obtain a graph which is $\Delta(G)$-edge-colorable. The paper relates the resistance to other parameters that measure how far is a graph…

A spanning 2-forest separating vertices $u$ and $v$ of an undirected connected graph is a spanning forest with 2 components such that $u$ and $v$ are in distinct components. Aside from their combinatorial significance, spanning 2-forests…

In this paper we give a survey of methods used to calculate values of resistance distance (also known as effective resistance) in graphs. Resistance distance has played a prominent role not only in circuit theory and chemistry, but also in…

We propose the notion of {\it resistance of a graph} as an accompanying notion of the structure entropy to measure the force of the graph to resist cascading failure of strategic virus attacks. We show that for any connected network $G$,…

A simple graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices is said to be recursively partitionable (RP) if $G \simeq K_1$, or if $G$ is connected and satisfies the following recursive property: for every integer partition $a_1, a_2, \dots, a_k$ of $n$, there…

Let $G$ be a finite plane multigraph and $G'$ its dual. Each edge $e$ of $G$ is interpreted as a resistor of resistance $R_e$, and the dual edge $e'$ is assigned the dual resistance $R_{e'}:=1/R_e$. Then the equivalent resistance $r_e$ over…

Given a graph on n vertices with m edges, each of unit resistance, how small can the average resistance between pairs of vertices be? There are two very plausible extremal constructions -- graphs like a star, and graphs which are close to…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, assigning each edge $e\in E$ a weight of a dual number $w(e)=1+\widehat{a}_{e}\varepsilon$, the weighted graph $G^{w}=(V,E,w)$ is called a dual number weighted graph, where $-\widehat{a}_{e}$ can be regarded as the…

The reciprocal degree resistance distance index of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $RDR(G)=\sum\limits_{\{u,v\}\subseteq V(G)}\frac {d_G(u)+d_G(v)}{r_G(u,v)}$, where $r_G(u,v)$ is the resistance distance between vertices $u$ and $v$ in…
