چکیده

If G is a connected graph with vertex set V , then the eccentric connectivity of G, ξ C (G), is defined as v∈V deg(v) ec(v) where deg(v) is the degree of a vertex v and ec(v) is its eccentricity. We obtain an exact lower bound on ξ C (G) in terms of order, and show that this bound is satisfied by the star graph. An asymptotically sharp upper bound is also derived. In addition, for trees of given order, when the diameter is also prescribed, precise upper and lower bounds are provided.

On the Szeged and Eccentric connectivity indices of non-commutative graph of finite groups

Let $G$ be a non-abelian group. The non-commuting graph $Gamma_G$ of $G$ is defined as the graph whose vertex set is the non-central elements of $G$ and two vertices are joined if and only if they do not commute.In this paper we study some properties of $Gamma_G$ and introduce $n$-regular $AC$-groups. Also we then obtain a formula for Szeged index of $Gamma_G$ in terms of $n$, $|Z(G)|$ and $|G|...

The eccentric connectivity index of bucket recursive trees

If $G$ is a connected graph with vertex set $V$, then the eccentric connectivity index of $G$, $xi^c(G)$, is defined as $sum_{vin V(G)}deg(v)ecc(v)$ where $deg(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ and $ecc(v)$ is its eccentricity. In this paper we show some convergence in probability and an asymptotic normality based on this index in random bucket recursive trees.

Eccentric Connectivity Index: Extremal Graphs and Values

Eccentric connectivity index has been found to have a low degeneracy and hence a significant potential of predicting biological activity of certain classes of chemical compounds. We present here explicit formulas for eccentric connectivity index of various families of graphs. We also show that the eccentric connectivity index grows at most polynomially with the number of vertices and determine ...

On the distance based indices of H-phenylenic nanotorus

Let G be a connected simple (molecular) graph. The distance d(u, v) between two vertices u and v of G is equal to the length of a shortest path that connects u and v. In this paper we compute some distance based topological indices of H-Phenylenic nanotorus. At first we obtain an exact formula for the Wiener index. As application we calculate the Schultz index and modified Schultz index of this...

Eccentric Connectivity Index of Some Dendrimer Graphs

The eccentricity connectivity index of a molecular graph G is defined as (G) = aV(G) deg(a)ε(a), where ε(a) is defined as the length of a maximal path connecting a to other vertices of G and deg(a) is degree of vertex a. Here, we compute this topological index for some infinite classes of dendrimer graphs.
