On the spectral radius of bi-block graphs with given independence number α

Highlights:

• In the revised manuscript, Lemma 2:2 and Proposition 2:3 (Lemma 2:1 and Proposition 2:2 in the previous draft) are modified in view of comments of Referee 2.

• In view of comments of Referee 2, to show the Lemma 2:6 (Lemma 2:5 in the previous draft) is true for the Case 3 (q>p and n>m) whenever m=1, we subdivide the case as p=q−1 and p
