Abstract

The Sombor index is a recently introduced graph-theoretical invariant of the bond-additive type. It is known that it takes integer values for bipartite semi-regular graphs whose degrees appear as two smaller elements in a Pythagorean triple. In this note, we show that it can have integer values also for graphs with more complicated structure and construct infinite families of graphs with integer Sombor indices.
