Abstract

We consider the problem on finding the edge weights that maximize the algebraic connectivity of a graph, subject to the condition that the total resistance remains constant. For the paths P3 y P4 the solution to the problem is given. It is conjectured that for general graphs the solution is given for weights distributions that are invariant under graph automorphisms.
