The Randic index R(G) of a graph G = (V, E) is the sum of (d(u)d(v))(-1/2) over all edges uv is an element of E of G. Bollobds and Erdos (Ars Combin. 50 (1998) 225) proved that the Randic index f a graph of order n without isolated vertices is at least rootn-1. They asked for the minimum value of R(G) for graphs G with given minimum degree delta(G). We answer their question for 6(G) = 2 and propose a related conjecture. Furthermore, we prove a best-possible lower bound on the Randic index of a triangle-free graph G with given minimum degree delta(G). (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
