Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study some parameters of simple graphs related with the degree of the vertices. So, our main tool is the n× n matrix \cal A whose (i,j)-entry is aij= \lbrace (1)/(√(δiδj)) · \rm if vi∼ vj ;
0 · \rm otherwise, . where δi denotes the degree of the vertex vi. We study the Randić index and some interesting particular cases of conditional excess, conditional Wiener index, and conditional diameter. In particular, using the matrix \cal A or its eigenvalues, we obtain tight bounds on the studied parameters.
