Extremal Values of Merrifield-simmons Index for Trees with Two Branching Vertices
In this paper we find trees with minimal and maximal MerrifieldSimmons index over the set Ω (n, 2) of all trees with n vertices and 2 branching vertices, and also over the subset Ω (n, 2) of all trees in Ω (n, 2) such that the branching vertices are connected by the path Pt.
متن کاملExtremal 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 کاملTricyclic graphs with maximum Merrifield-Simmons index
It is well known that the graph invariant, ‘the Merrifield–Simmons index’ is important one in structural chemistry. The connected acyclic graphs with maximal and minimal Merrifield–Simmons indices are determined by Prodinger and Tichy [H. Prodinger, R.F. Tichy, Fibonacci numbers of graphs, Fibonacci Quart. 20 (1982) 16–21]. The sharp upper and lower bounds for theMerrifield–Simmons indices of u...
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...
