On the upper bounds for the degree deviation of graphs. (English) Zbl 1479.05058

Summary: Let \(G\) be a simple connected non-trivial graph of order \(n\), size \(m\), and vertex degree sequence \((d_1, d_2,\ldots , d_n)\). The first Zagreb index \(M_1\), forgotten index \(F\) and inverse degree ID are the graph invariants defined as \(M_1(G)=\sum_{i=1}^n d_i^2, F(G) = \sum_{i=1}^n d_i^3\) and \(ID(G)=\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{1}{d_i} \), respectively. A graph is said to be regular if all of its vertices have the same degree and otherwise, it is called a nonregular graph. For the quantitative topological characterization of the nonregularity of graphs, the graph invariants \(s(G)=\sum_{i=1}^n\left| d_i-\frac{2m}{n}\right|\) and \(\operatorname{Var}(G)= \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n \left( d_i - \frac{2m}{n} \right)^2\) may be used. In this paper, some upper bounds for \(s(G)\) that reveal connections between \(s(G)\) and \(M_1(G)\), \(F(G)\), \(ID (G)\), \(\operatorname{Var}(G)\) are obtained.
