We introduce the general Albertson irregularity index of a connected graph $G$ and define it as $A_{p}(G) =(\sum_{uv\in E(G)}|d(u)-d(v)|^p)^{\frac{1}{p}}$, where $p$ is a positive real number and $d(v)$ is the degree of the vertex $v$ in $G$. The new index is not only generalization of the well-known Albertson irregularity index and $\sigma$-index, but also it is the Minkowski norm of the degree of vertex. We present lower and upper bounds on the general Albertson irregularity index. In addition, we study the extremal value on the general Albertson irregularity index for trees of given order. Finally, we give the calculation formula of the general Albertson index of generalized Bethe trees and Kragujevac trees., Comment: 17 pages, 4 figures

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 introduced by Kulli. In this paper, the mathematical relations between the first Banhatti-Sombor index and some other well-known vertex-degree-based topological indices are established. In addition, the trees extremal with respect to the first Banhatti-Sombor index on trees and chemical trees are characterized, respectively., Comment: 18

Let $d_G(v)$ be the degree of the vertex $v$ in a graph $G$. The Sombor index of $G$ is defined as $SO(G) =\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{d^2_G(u)+d^2_G(v)}$, which is a new degree-based topological index introduced by Gutman. Let $\mathscr{T}_{n,\Delta}$ and $\mathscr{U}_{n,\Delta}$ be the set of trees and unicyclic graphs with $n$ vertices and maximum degree $\Delta$, respectively. In this paper, the tree and the unicyclic graph with minimum Sombor index among $\mathscr{T}_{n,\Delta}$ and $\mathscr{U}_{n,\Delta}$ are characterized., Comment: 10 pages, 2 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:2103.04645

In 2021, the Sombor index was introduced by Gutman, which is a new degree-based topological molecular descriptors. The Sombor index of a graph $G$ is defined as $SO(G) =\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\sqrt{d^2_G(u)+d^2_G(v)}$, where $d_G(v)$ is the degree of the vertex $v$ in $G$. Let $\mathscr{T}_{n,m}$ and $\mathscr{U}_{n,m}$ be the set of trees and unicyclic graphs on $n$ vertices with fixed matching number $m$, respectively. In this paper, the tree and the unicyclic graph with the maximum Sombor index are determined among $\mathscr{T}_{n,m}$ and $\mathscr{U}_{n,m}$, respectively., Comment: 10

For every real $0\leq \alpha \leq 1$, Nikiforov defined the $A_{\alpha}$-matrix of a graph $G$ as $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G)$, where $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ are the adjacency matrix and the degree diagonal matrix of a graph $G$, respectively. The eigenvalues of $A_{\alpha}(G)$ are called the $A_{\alpha}$-eigenvalues of $G$. Let $S_k(A_{\alpha}(G))$ be the sum of $k$ largest $A_{\alpha}$-eigenvalues of $G$. In this paper, we present several upper and lower bounds on $S_k(A_{\alpha}(G))$ and characterize the extremal graphs for certain cases, which can be regard as a common generalization of the sum of $k$ largest eigenvalues of adjacency matrix and signless Laplacian matrix of graphs. In addition, some graph operations on $S_k(A_{\alpha}(G))$ are presented., Comment: 29 pages, 1 figure

Let $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ be the adjacency matrix and the degree diagonal matrix of a graph $G$, respectively. Then $L(G)=D(G)-A(G)$ is called Laplacian matrix of the graph $G$. Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Then the $LI$-matrix of $G$ are defined as $LI(G)=L(G)-\frac{2m}{n}I_n$, where $I_n$ is the identity matrix. In this paper, we are interested in extremal properties of the Ky Fan $k$-norm of the $LI$-matrix of graphs, which is closely related to the well known problems and results in spectral graph theory, such as the Laplacian spectral radius, the Laplacian spread, the sum of the $k$ largest Laplacian eigenvalues, the Laplacian energy, and other parameters. Some bounds on the Ky Fan $k$-norm of the $LI$-matrix of graphs are given, and the extremal graphs are partly characterized. In addition, upper and lower bounds on the Ky Fan $k$-norm of $LI$-matrix of trees, unicyclic graphs and bicyclic graphs are determined, and the corresponding extremal graphs are characterized., Comment: 23 pages, 3 figures
