Extremal Hosoya index and Merrifield-Simmons index of hexagonal spiders
For any graph G, let m(G) and i(G) be the numbers of matchings (i.e., the Hosoya index) and the number of independent sets (i.e., the Merrifield–Simmons index) of G, respectively. In this paper, we show that the linear hexagonal spider and zig-zag hexagonal spider attain the extremal values of Hosoya index and Merrifield–Simmons index, respectively. c © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملExtremal trees with respect to Hosoya Index and Merrifield-Simmons Index
We characterize the trees T with n vertices whose Hosoya index (total number of matchings) is Z(T ) > 16fn−5 resp. the trees whose Merrifield-Simmons index (total number of independent subsets) is σ(T ) < 18fn−5 + 21fn−6, where fk is the kth Fibonacci number. It turns out that all the trees satisfying the inequality are tripodes (trees with exactly three leaves) and the path in both cases. Furt...
متن کاملSome extremal unicyclic graphs with respect to Hosoya index and Merrifield-Simmons index
The Hosoya index of a graph is defined as the total number of the matchings, including the empty edge set, of the graph. The Merrifield-Simmons index of a graph is defined as the total number of the independent vertex sets, including the empty vertex set, of the graph. Let U(n,∆) be the set of connected unicyclic graphs of order n with maximum degree ∆. We consider the Hosoya indices and the Me...
متن کاملThe Extremal Graphs for (Sum-) Balaban Index of Spiro and Polyphenyl Hexagonal Chains
As highly discriminant distance-based topological indices, the Balaban index and the sum-Balaban index of a graph $G$ are defined as $J(G)=frac{m}{mu+1}sumlimits_{uvin E} frac{1}{sqrt{D_{G}(u)D_{G}(v)}}$ and $SJ(G)=frac{m}{mu+1}sumlimits_{uvin E} frac{1}{sqrt{D_{G}(u)+D_{G}(v)}}$, respectively, where $D_{G}(u)=sumlimits_{vin V}d(u,v)$ is the distance sum of vertex $u$ in $G$, $m$ is the n...
متن کاملGraphs with maximal Hosoya index and minimal Merrifield-Simmons index
For a graph G, the Hosoya index and the Merrifield-Simmons index are defined as the total number of its matchings and the total number of its independent sets, respectively. In this paper, we characterize the structure of those graphs that minimize the Merrifield-Simmons index and those that maximize the Hosoya index in two classes of simple connected graphs with n vertices: graphs with fixed m...
