Abstract:

A recently published paper [T. Došlić, this journal 3 (2012) 25-34] considers the Zagreb indices of benzenoid systems, and points out their low discriminativity. We show that analogous results hold for a variety of vertex-degree-based molecular structure descriptors that are being studied in contemporary mathematical chemistry. We also show that these results are straightforwardly obtained by using some identities, well known in the theory of benzenoid hydrocarbons.

On the eigenvalues of some matrices based on vertex degree

The aim of this paper is to compute some bounds of forgotten index and then we present spectral properties of this index. In continuing, we define a new version of energy namely ISI energy corresponded to the ISI index and then we determine some bounds for it.

On discriminativity of Zagreb indices

Zagreb indices belong to better known and better researched topological indices. We investigate here their ability to discriminate among benzenoid graphs and arrive at some quite unexpected conclusions. Along the way we establish tight (and sometimes sharp) lower and upper bounds on various classes of benzenoids.

Splice Graphs and their Vertex-Degree-Based Invariants

Let G_1 and G_2 be simple connected graphs with disjoint vertex sets V(G_1) and V(G_2), respectively. For given vertices a_1in V(G_1) and a_2in V(G_2), a splice of G_1 and G_2 by vertices a_1 and a_2 is defined by identifying the vertices a_1 and a_2 in the union of G_1 and G_2. In this paper, we present exact formulas for computing some vertex-degree-based graph invariants of splice of graphs.

M-polynomial and degree-based topological indices

Let $G$ be a graph and let $m_{ij}(G)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $G$ such that ${d_v(G), d_u(G)} = {i,j}$. The {em $M$-polynomial} of $G$ is introduced with $displaystyle{M(G;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{ij}(G)x^iy^j}$. It is shown that degree-based topological indices can be routinely computed from the polynomial, thus reducing the problem of their determination in each particular ca...
