The asymptotic value of energy for matrices with degree-distance-based entries of random graphs

For a graph $G=(V, E)$ and $i, j\in V$, denote the distance between $i$ and $j$ in $G$ by $D(i, j)$ and the degrees of $i$, $j$ by $d_i$, $d_j$, respectively. Let $f(D(i, j), d_{i}, d_{j})$ be a function symmetric in $i$ and $j$. Define a matrix $W_f(G)$, called the weighted distance matrix, of $G$, with the $ij$-entry $W_f(G)(i, j)=f(D(i, j), d_{i}, d_{j})$ if $i\neq j$ and $W_f(G)(i, j)=0$ if $i=j$. In this paper, we prove that if the symmetric function $f$ satisfies that $f(D(i, j), (1+o(1))np, (1+o(1))np)=(1+o(1))f(D(i, j), np, np)$, then for almost all graphs $G_p$ in the $Erd\ddot{o}s$-$R\acute{e}nyi$ random graph model $\mathcal{G}_{n, p}$, the energy of $W_f(G_p)$ is $\{(\frac{8}{3π}\sqrt{p(1-p)}+o(1))\cdot|f(1, np, np)-f(2, np, np)|+o(|f(2, np, np)|)\}\cdot n^{3/2}$. As a consequence, we give the asymptotic values of energies of a variety of weighted distance matrices with function $f$ from distance-based only and mixed with degree-distance-based topological indices of chemical use. This generalizes our former result with only degree-based weights.
