Abstract

The resistance matrix \(R=R(G)\) of G is a matrix whose (ij)th entry is equal to the resistance distance \(r_G(v_i, v_j)\). The resistance distance spectral radius, \(\partial _1^R(G)\), of G is the largest eigenvalues of R. In this paper, we obtain several edge-grafting transformations which are decreasing and/or increasing resistance distance spectral radius. As applications of these transformations, some lower and upper bounds on resistance distance spectral radius are determined and the corresponding extremal graphs are characterized.
