Let G be a smple connected graph wth n vertces and let d be the degree of ts -th vertex.

The Randć energy s the sum of the absolute values of the Randć egenvalues. In ths paper, we ntroduce a new ndex of the graph G whch s called Randć Estrada ndex. In addton, we obtan lower and upper bounds for the Randć energy and the Randć Estrada ndex of G. 2000 Mathematcs Subject Classfcatons: 05C50,5A8 Key Words and Phrases: Randć Matrx, Randć Egenvalue, Randć Energy, Randć Estrada Index. Introducton Let G be a smple connected graph wth n vertces and m edges. Throughout ths paper, such a graph wll be refered to as connected (n, m)-graph. Let V (G) = v, v 2,...,v n be the vertex set of G. Ifanytwovetcesv and v j of G are adjacent, then we use the notaton v v j. For v V (G), the degree of the vertex v, denoted by d, s the number of the vertces adjacent to v. Let A(G) be the (0, )-adjacency matrx of G and λ, λ 2,...,λ n be ts egenvalues. These are sad to be egenvalues of the graph G and to form ts spectrum [3]. TheRandć matrx of G s the n n matrx R = R (G)= R j as the followng R j = d d j, v v j 0, otherwse Correspondng author.

Lower bound: Snce e x ex,equaltyholdsfandonlyfx = ande x + x, equalty holds f and only f x = 0, we get REE (G) = e ρ = e ρ + ρ >0 ρ 0 eρ + + ρ ρ >0 ρ 0 e ρ = e ρ + ρ 2 + + ρ n+ + n n+ + ρn+ + + + ρ n = (e ) ρ + ρ 2 + + ρ n+ + n n+ + = 2 RE (G)(e )+n n +. Upper bound: Snce f (x)=e x monotoncally ncreases n the nterval (, + ), weget REE (G)= e ρ n n + + n + e ρ ρ Therefore REE (G) = n n + + = n + k n + k n + k ρ k 0 n + k! k! ρ k n + k! k ρ = n + e RE(G) 2. It s easy to see that the equalty holds on both sdes of (2) f and only f RE (G)=0. Snce G s a connected graph ths only happens n the case of G = K.
