Irregularidad de grafos: Discusión, extensiones de grafos y nuevas propuestas

This paper presents some measures of graph irregularity found in the literature. From their discussion two important points appear: first, the absence of relationship between all of them, but a single exception, with the structures of the corresponding graphs and, moreover, their known extremal values correspond to graphs having degree sequences with few different values. Two new measures are proposed, seeking to meet these points. Their values are calculated for extremal graphs associated with other measures and for antiregular graphs. Finally, we calculate the boxplots of all these measures for some sets of graphs taken from the literature and also for four sets where the ordered degree sequences are constant. All measures involved have polynomial complexity.
