Suppose that G is a simple, undirected graph. An induced matching in G is a set of edges M in the edge set E(G) of G such that if e1, e2 in M, then no endpoint v1, v2 of e1 and e2 respectively is incident to any edge ek in E(G) such that ek…

The eccentricity of a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$ is the distance between $u$ and a vertex farthest from it; the eccentric sequence of $G$ is the nondecreasing sequence of the eccentricities of $G$. In this paper, we determine the…

A routing $R$ of a given connected graph $G$ of order $n$ is a collection of $n(n-1)$ simple paths connecting every ordered pair of vertices of $G$. The vertex-forwarding index $\xi(G,R)$ of $G$ with respect to $R$ is defined as the maximum…

The unit-distance graph on the $n$-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is called the $n$-dimensional grid. We attempt to maximize the girth of a $k$-regular (possibly induced) subgraph of the $n$-dimensional grid, and provide…

The diameter of an undirected or a directed graph is defined to be the maximum shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices in the graph. Given an undirected graph $G$, we examine the problem of assigning directions to each edge of $G$…

In 1997 Klav\v{z}ar and Gutman suggested a generalization of the Wiener index to vertex-weighted graphs. We minimize the Wiener index over the set of trees with the given vertex weights' and degrees' sequences and show an optimal tree to be…

In this paper, we investigate various algebraic and graph theoretic properties of the distance matrix of a graph. Two graphs are $D$-cospectral if their distance matrices have the same spectrum. We construct infinite pairs of $D$-cospectral…

Given a connected graph $G\ $of order $n$ and a nonnegative symmetric matrix $A=\left[ a_{i,j}\right] $ of order $n,$ define the function $F_{A}\left( G\right) $ as% \[ F_{A}\left( G\right) =\sum_{1\leq i<j\leq n}d_{G}\left( i,j\right)…

An ordered graph is a graph with a linear ordering on its vertex set. We prove that for every positive integer $k$, there exists a constant $c_k>0$ such that any ordered graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with the property that neither $G$ nor its…

The routing and wavelength assignment problem arises from the investigation of optimal wavelength allocation in an optical network that employs Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). Consider an optical network that is represented by a…

We define a grid graph $G$ as a Cartesian product of path-graphs $P_n$ or cycle-graphs $C_n$ as shown in Figure 1, and we ask, when can the edge set of a complete graph be expressed as a disjoint union of graphs isomorphic to $G$? That is,…

Let $G$ be a simple connected simple graph of order $n$. The distance Laplacian matrix $D^{L}(G)$ is defined as $D^L(G)=Diag(Tr)-D(G)$, where $Diag(Tr)$ is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions and $D(G)$ is the distance matrix of…

A directed graph is oriented if it can be obtained by orienting the edges of a simple, undirected graph. For an oriented graph $G$, let $\beta(G)$ denote the size of a minimum feedback arc set, a smallest subset of edges whose deletion…

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…

The eccentricity matrix of a simple connected graph is derived from its distance matrix by preserving the largest non-zero distance in each row and column, while the other entries are set to zero. This article examines the…

The spread of a graph $G$ is the difference between the largest and smallest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$. Gotshall, O'Brien and Tait conjectured that for sufficiently large $n$, the $n$-vertex outerplanar graph with maximum…

We investigate a special case of the maximum quadratic assignment problem where one matrix is a product matrix and the other matrix is the distance matrix of a one-dimensional point set. We show that this special case, which we call the…

The Erd\H{o}s, Gr\"unwald, and Weiszfeld theorem is a characterization of those infinite graphs which are Eulerian. That is, infinite graphs that admit infinite Eulerian paths. In this article we prove an effective version of the Erd\H{o}s,…

The vertex PI index is a distance--based molecular structure descriptor, that recently found numerous chemical applications. In order to increase diversity of this topological index for bipartite graphs, we introduce weighted version…

In the paper we develop new methods for calculating the two well-known topological indices, the degree-distance and the Gutman index. Firstly, we prove that the Wiener index of a double vertex-weighted graph can be computed from the Wiener…
