We study the homology of an explicit finite-index subgroup of the automorphism group of a partially commutative group, in the case when its defining graph is a tree. More concretely, we give a lower bound on the first Betti number of this…

In this paper we obtain bounds on a very general class of distance-based topological indices of graphs, which includes the Wiener index, defined as the sum of the distances between all pairs of vertices of the graph, and most…

(Im)balance indices can be used to quantify the (im)balance of trees by assigning numerical scores to them. An easy way to generate a new index is to construct a compound index, e.g., a linear combination of established indices. Two of 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 trees of order $\mathbf{n}$ with a given dissociation number $\varphi$, where…

For a connected graph $G$, an instance $I$ is a set of pairs of vertices and a corresponding routing $R$ is a set of paths specified for all vertex-pairs in $I$. Let $\mathfrak{R}_I$ be the collection of all routings with respect to $I$.…

Albertson, Berman, Hutchinson, and Thomassen showed in 1990 that there exist highly connected graphs in which every spanning tree contains vertices of degree 2. Using a result of Alon and Wormald, we show that there exists a natural number…

The reverse Wiener index of a connected graph $G$ is a variation of the well-known Wiener index $W(G)$ defined as the sum of distances between all unordered pairs of vertices of $G$. It is defined as $\Lambda(G)=\frac{1}{2}n(n-1)d-W(G)$,…

Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph with set of vertices $V(G)$ and set of edges $E(G)$. A subset $S$ of $E(G)$ is called a $k$-nearly independent edge subsets if there are exactly $k$ pairs of elements of $S$ that share a common end. $Z_k(G)$…

In a recent article [5], the authors claim that the distance between the b-chromatic index of a tree and a known upper bound is at most 1. At the same time, in [7] the authors claim to be able to construct a tree where this difference is…

Recently, D. Vuki$\check{c}$evi$\acute{c}$ and J. Sedlar in \cite{Vuki} introduced an order "$\preceq$" on $\mathcal{T}_n$, the set of trees on $n$ vertices, such that the topological index $F$ of a graph is a function defined on the order…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. The edge revised Szeged index of $G$ is defined as $Sz^{\ast}_{e}(G)=\sum\limits_{e=uv\in E(G)}(m_{u}(e|G)+\frac{m_{0}(e|G)}{2})(m_{v}(e|G)+\frac{m_{0}(e|G)}{2})$, where $m_{u}(e|G)$ (resp., $m_{v}(e|G)$) is…

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…

Let $d_u$ be the degree of a vertex $u$ of a graph $G$. The atom-bond sum-connectivity (ABS) index of a graph $G$ is the sum of the numbers $(1-2(d_v+d_w)^{-1})^{1/2}$ over all edges $vw$ of $G$. This paper gives the characterization of the…

A vertex of degree one is called an end-vertex, and an end-vertex of a tree is called a leaf. A tree with at most $k$ leaves is called a $k$-ended tree. For a positive integer $k$, let $t_k$ be the order of a largest $k$-ended tree. Let…
