How to Use
Select graph:
- NR: Neighbor Randić
- 1/√(SS): Per edge
- vs R: Compare
NR vs R
R = Σ1/√(dd): first-order. NR = Σ1/√(SS): second-order. Since S≥d, we have SS≥dd, so 1/√(SS) ≤ 1/√(dd). Thus NR ≤ R always.
Discrimination
Classical R is determined by degree sequence. NR goes beyond: uses neighborhood structure. Two degree-regular graphs can have different NR if their neighborhoods differ. Breaks degree-sequence equivalence.
