On Harmonic Index and Diameter of Unicyclic Graphs
Authors
Abstract:
The Harmonic index $ H(G) $ of a graph $ G $ is defined as the sum of the weights $ dfrac{2}{d(u)+d(v)} $ of all edges $ uv $ of $G$, where $d(u)$ denotes the degree of the vertex $u$ in $G$. In this work, we prove the conjecture $dfrac{H(G)}{D(G)} geq dfrac{1}{2}+dfrac{1}{3(n-1)} $ given by Jianxi Liu in 2013 when G is a unicyclic graph and give a better bound $ dfrac{H(G)}{D(G)}geq dfrac{1}{2}+dfrac{2}{3(n-2)}$, where $n$ is the order and $D(G)$ is the diameter of the graph $G$.

On the harmonic index of the unicyclic and bicyclic graphs
The harmonic index is one of the most important indices in chemical and mathematical fields. It’s a variant of the Randić index which is the most successful molecular descriptor in structure-property and structureactivity relationships studies. The harmonic index gives somewhat better correlations with physical and chemical properties comparing with the well known Randić index. The harmonic ind...

The Hosoya index of a (molecular) graph is defined as the total number of the matchings, including the empty edge set, of this graph. Let Un,d be the set of connected unicyclic (molecular) graphs of order n with diameter d. In this paper we completely characterize the graphs from Un,d minimizing the Hosoya index and determine the values of corresponding indices. Moreover, the third smallest Hos...

The harmonic index of a graph G is defined as the sum of weights 2 d(u)+d(v) of all edges uv of G, where d(u) and d(v) are the degrees of the vertices u and v in G, respectively. In this paper, we determine the graph with minimum harmonic index among all unicyclic graphs with a perfect matching. Moreover, the graph with minimum harmonic index among all unicyclic graphs with a given matching num...

The harmonic index of a graph $G$, denoted by $H(G)$, is defined asthe sum of weights $2/[d(u)+d(v)]$ over all edges $uv$ of $G$, where$d(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$. Hu and Zhou [Y. Hu and X. Zhou, WSEAS Trans. Math. {bf 12} (2013) 716--726] proved that for any bicyclic graph $G$ of order $ngeq 4$, $H(G)le frac{n}{2}-frac{1}{15}$ and characterize all extremal bicyclic graphs.In this...

The harmonic index H(G) , of a graph G is defined as the sum of weights 2/(deg(u)+deg(v)) of all edges in E(G), where deg (u) denotes the degree of a vertex u in V(G). In this paper we define the harmonic polynomial of G. We present explicit formula for the values of harmonic polynomial for several families of specific graphs and we find the lower and upper bound for harmonic index in Caterpill...
