Abstract Given a graph G, the mixed graph D G is obtained from G by orienting some of its edges, where G is called the underlying graph of D G . Let p ( D G ) , n ( D G ) (resp. p ( G ) , n ( G ) ) be the positive inertia index and negative inertia index of D G (resp. G). In this paper, we first establish the inequalities − d ( G ) ⩽ p ( D G ) − p ( G ) ⩽ d ( G ) and − d ( G ) ⩽ n ( D G ) − n ( G ) ⩽ d ( G ) , where d ( G ) is the dimension of cycle space of G. Furthermore, all the corresponding extremal graphs are characterized.
