Abstract

The inverse degree of graph G is defined as ID(G)=σvεV(G)1dG(v) where dG(v) is the degree of vertex v in G. In this paper we have determined some upper and lower bounds on the inverse degree ID(G) for a connected graph G in terms of other graph parameters, such as chromatic number, clique number, connectivity, number of cut edges, matching number. Also the corresponding extremal graphs have been completely characterized.
