The irregularity strength of a graph $G$, $s(G)$, is the least $k$ admitting a $\{1,2,\ldots,k\}$-weighting of the edges of $G$ assuring distinct weighted degrees of all vertices, or equivalently the least possible maximal edge multiplicity…

We investigate the \textit{group irregularity strength}, $s_g(G)$, of a graph, i.e. the least integer $k$ such that taking any Abelian group $\mathcal{G}$ of order $k$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ so that the…

The principal ratio of a connected graph $G$, $\gamma(G)$, is the ratio between the largest and smallest coordinates of the principal eigenvector of the adjacency matrix of $G$. Over all connected graphs on $n$ vertices, $\gamma(G)$ ranges…

Stepwise irregular (SI) graphs were introduced by Ivan Gutman recently in 2018 and in these graphs the difference between the degrees of any two adjacent vertices is exactly one. In this work, we show the existence of connected bicyclic SI…

A signed graph $(G,\sigma)$ is a graph $G$ together with an assignment $\sigma$ of either a positive sign or a negative sign to each edge. A signed graph is unbalanced if it contains a cycle with odd number of negative edges. The spectral…

The total graph of $G$, $\mathcal T(G)$ is the graph whose set of vertices is the union of the sets of vertices and edges of $G$, where two vertices are adjacent if and only if they stand for either incident or adjacent elements in $G$. Let…

Let G be an n-vertex graph with m edges. The degree deviation measure of G is defined as s(G)=sum v in V(G)|degG(v)-(2m/n)|, where n and m are the number of vertices and edges of G, respectively. The aim of this paper is to prove the…

For a connected graph $G$, let $\mu(G)$ denote the distance spectral radius of $G$. A matching in a graph $G$ is a set of disjoint edges of $G$. The maximum size of a matching in $G$ is called the matching number of $G$, denoted by…

In this paper, we define the $4$-girth-thickness $\theta(4,G)$ of a graph $G$ as the minimum number of planar subgraphs of girth at least $4$ whose union is $G$. We obtain the $4$-girth-thickness of the arbitrary complete graph $K_n$…

Let $W(G)$ be the Wiener index of a graph $G$. We say that a vertex $v \in V(G)$ is a \v{S}olt\'es vertex in $G$ if $W(G - v) = W(G)$, i.e. the Wiener index does not change if the vertex $v$ is removed. In 1991, \v{S}olt\'es posed the…

The variation of the Randi\'c index $ R'(G) $ of a graph $G$ is defined by\ $R(G) = \sum_{uv \in E(G)}\frac 1{\max \{d(u) d(v)\}}$, where $d(u)$ is the degree of vertex $u$ and the summation extends over all edges $uv$ of $G$. Let $G(k,n)$…

For a simple graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, the first Zagreb index and the second Zagreb index are defined as $M_1(G)=\sum_{v\in V}d(v)^2 $ and $M_2(G)=\sum_{uv\in E}d(u)d(v)$. In \cite{VGFAD}, it was shown that if a connected…

Transmission of a vertex v of a connected graph G is the sum of distances from v to all other vertices in G. Graph G is transmission irregular (TI) if no two of its vertices have the same transmission, and G is interval transmission…

We consider undirected simple finite graphs. The sets of vertices and edges of a graph $G$ are denoted by $V(G)$ and $E(G)$, respectively. For a graph $G$, we denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ the least degree of a vertex of $G$ and the…
