چکیده

the average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $g$is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to allother vertices of $g$. the proximity $pi(g)$ and the remoteness $rho(g)$of $g$ are defined as the minimum and maximum averagedistance of the vertices of $g$. in this paper we investigate the difference between proximity or remoteness and the classical distanceparameters diameter and radius. among other results we show that in a graph of order$n$ and minimum degree $delta$ the difference betweendiameter and proximity and the difference betweenradius and proximity cannot exceed $frac{9n}{4(delta+1)}+c_1$ and $frac{3n}{4(delta+1)}+c_2$, respectively, for constants $c_1$ and $c_2$ which depend on $delta$but not on $n$. these bounds improve bounds byaouchiche and hansen cite{aouhan2011} in terms oforder alone by about a factor of $frac{3}{delta+1}$. we further give lower bounds on the remoteness interms of diameter or radius. finally we show thatthe average distance of a graph, i.e., the average ofthe distances between all pairs of vertices, cannotexceed twice the proximity.

New bounds on proximity and remoteness in graphs

The average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to allother vertices of $G$. The proximity $pi(G)$ and the remoteness $rho(G)$of $G$ are defined as the minimum and maximum averagedistance of the vertices of $G$. In this paper we investigate the difference between proximity or remoteness and the classical distanceparameters diameter a...

On the remoteness function in median graphs

A profile on a graph G is any nonempty multiset whose elements are vertices from G. The corresponding remoteness function associates to each vertex x ∈ V (G) the sum of distances from x to the vertices in the profile. Starting from some nice and useful properties of the remoteness function in hypercubes, the remoteness function is studied in arbitrary median graphs with respect to their isometr...

New Bounds on Extremal Numbers in Acyclic Ordered Graphs

This paper is mainly concerned with the upper and lower bound of the number of edges an ordered graph can have avoiding a fixed forbidden ordered subgraph H. The only case where a sharp bound has not been discovered is when H has interval chromatic number 2, where H can be represented as a 0-1 matrix P . Let ex<(n, n, P ) be the maximum weight of an n by n 0-1 matrix avoiding P . When P contain...

Direction-Aware Proximity on Graphs

In many graph mining settings, measuring node proximity is a fundamental problem. While most of existing measurements are (implicitly or explicitly) designed for undirected graphs; edge directions in the graph provide a new perspective to proximity measurement: measuring the proximity from A to B; rather than between A and B. (See Figure 1 as an example). In this chapter, we study the role of e...

On Crossings in Geometric Proximity Graphs

We study the number of crossings among edges of some higher order proximity graphs of the family of the Delaunay graph. That is, given a set P of n points in the Euclidean plane, we give lower and upper bounds on the minimum and the maximum number of crossings that these geometric graphs defined on P have.

New upper bounds on the spectral radius of unicyclic graphs

Let G = (V (G), E(G)) be a unicyclic simple undirected graph with largest vertex degree . Let Cr be the unique cycle of G. The graph G− E(Cr ) is a forest of r rooted trees T1,T2, . . .,Tr with root vertices v1, v2, . . ., vr , respectively. Let k(G) = max 1 i r {max{dist(vi , u) : u ∈ V (Ti )}} + 1, where dist(v, u) is the distance from v to u. Let μ1(G) and λ1(G) be the spectral radius of the...
