Abstract

In this work we perform computational and analytical studies of the Randi ` c index R(G) in Erdos-Renyi models G(n, p) characterized by n vertices connected independently with probability p is an element of (0, 1). First, from a detailed scaling analysis, we show that <(R) over bar (G)> = < R(G)>/(n/2) scales with the product xi approximate to np, so we can define three regimes: a regime of mostly isolated vertices when xi< 0.01 (R(G) approximate to 0), a transition regime for 0.01 < xi < 10 (where 0 < R(G) < n/2), and a regime of almost complete graphs for xi > 10 (R(G) approximate to n/2). Then, motivated by the scaling of <(R) over bar (G)>, we analytically (i) obtain new relations connecting R(G) with other topological indices and characterize graphs which are extremal with respect to the relations obtained and (ii) apply these results in order to obtain inequalities on R (G) for graphs in Erdos-Renyi models.
