We provide upper estimates on the spectral radius of a directed graph. In particular w e prove that the spectral radius is bounded by the maximum of the geometric mean of in-degree and out-degree taken over all vertices.

## Abstract We consider the family of graphs with a fixed number of vertices and edges. Among all these graphs, we are looking for those minimizing the sum of the square roots of the vertex degrees. We prove that there is a unique such graph, which consists of the largest possible complete subgraph
For a 3-connected graph with radius r containing n vertices, in [1] r < n/4 + O(log n) was proved and r < n/4 + const was conjectured. Here we prove r < n/4 + 8. Let G be a simple 3-connected finite graph on n vertices with vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G). For X, YE V(G) we denote by d(X, Y) the
