We show that on cactus graphs the Szeged index is bounded above by twice the Wiener index. For the revised Szeged index the situation is reversed if the graph class is further restricted. Namely, if all blocks of a cactus graph are cycles,…

The eccentricity of a vertex is the maximum distance from it to another vertex and the average eccentricity $ecc (G)$ of a graph $G$ is the mean value of eccentricities of all vertices of $G$. The average eccentricity is deeply connected…

For a connected graph $G$, the Wiener index, denoted by $W(G)$, is the sum of the distance of all pairs of distinct vertices and the eccentricity, denoted by $\varepsilon(G)$, is the sum of the eccentricity of individual vertices. In…

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…

An extension of the well-known Szeged index was introduced recently, named as weighted Szeged index ($\textrm{sz}(G)$). This paper is devoted to characterizing the extremal trees and graphs of this new topological invariant. In particular,…

Given graphs $X$ and $Y$ with vertex sets $V(X)$ and $V(Y)$ of the same cardinality, the friends-and-strangers graph $\mathsf{FS}(X,Y)$ is the graph whose vertex set consists of all bijections $\sigma:V(X)\to V(Y)$, where two bijections…

For a graph invariant $\pi$, the Contraction($\pi$) problem consists in, given a graph $G$ and two positive integers $k,d$, deciding whether one can contract at most $k$ edges of $G$ to obtain a graph in which $\pi$ has dropped by at least…

A graph is non-trivial if it contains at least one nonloop edge. The essential connectivity of $G$, denoted by $\kappa'(G)$, is the minimum number of vertices of $G$ whose removal produces a disconnected graph with at least two components…

The Wiener index of a vertex coloring of a graph is defined to be the sum of all pairwise geodesic distances between vertices of the same color. We provide characterizations of vertex colorings of paths and cycles whose Wiener index is as…

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a graph with non-empty set of vertices $V$ and set of edges $E$. The \emph{eccentric connectivity index} of the graph $G$ is defined as $$\displaystyle{\xi^C(G) = \sum_{u \in V} d_u \;ecc(u)}$$ where $d_u$ is the degree…

The zeroth-order general Randi\'c index (usually denoted by $R_{\alpha}^{0}$) and variable sum exdeg index (denoted by $SEI_{a}$) of a graph $G$ are defined as $R_{\alpha}^{0}(G)= \sum_{v\in V(G)} (d_{v})^{\alpha}$ and $SEI_{a}(G)=…

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 $\Lambda(G)=\frac{1}{2}n(n-1)d-W(G)$,…

The bond incident degree (BID) index of a graph \(G\) is defined as \(\BID(G) = \sum_{u_1u_2\in E(G)} f(d(u_1), d(u_2))\), where \(f(x,y)=f(y,x)\) is a real-valued function. In this paper, using graph transformation methods, we establish…

The Kirchhoff index is defined as the sum of resistance distances between all pairs of vertices in a graph. This index is a critical parameter for measuring graph structures. In this paper, we characterize polygonal chains with the minimum…

This paper gives lower bounds on the spectral radius of vertex-transitive graphs, based on the number of ``prime cycles'' at a vertex. The bounds are obtained by constructing circuits in the graph that resemble ``cactus trees'', and…

The atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index is a well-known degree-based molecular structure descriptor with a variety of chemical applications. In 2010 Graovac and Ghorbani introduced a distance-based analog of this index, the Graovac-Ghorbani…

The eccentricity of a vertex $v$ in a graph $G$ is the maximum distance from $v$ to any other vertex. The vertices whose eccentricity are equal to the diameter (the maximum eccentricity) of $G$ are called peripheral vertices. In trees the…

The Wiener index is maximized over the set of trees with the given vertex weight and degree sequences. This model covers the traditional "unweighed" Wiener index, the terminal Wiener index, and the vertex distance index. It is shown that…

Let $G$ be a simple connected graph of order $n$ and $\partial(G)$ is the spectral radius of the distance matrix $D(G)$ of $G$. The transmission $D_i$ of vertex $i$ is the $i$-th row sum of $D(G)$. Denote by $D_{\max}(G)$ the maximum of…

Let $d_v$ be the degree of the vertex $v$ in a connected graph $G$. The first Banhatti-Sombor index of $G$ is defined as $BSO(G) =\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{\frac{1}{d^2_u}+\frac{1}{d^2_v}}$, which is a new vertex-degree-based topological index…
