The Randić index of a graph G, written R(G), is the sum of 1 √ d(u)d(v) over all edges uv in E(G). Let d and D be positive integers d < D. In this paper, we prove that if G is a graph with minimum degree d and maximum degree D, then R(G) ≥ √ dD d+Dn; equality holds only when G is an n-vertex (d,D)-biregular. Furthermore, we show that if G is an n-vertex connected graph with minimum degree d and...

The Randić index R(G) of a graph G is defined by R(G) = ∑ uv 1 √ d(u)d(v) , where d(u) is the degree of a vertex u in G and the summation extends over all edges uv of G. Aouchiche et al. proposed a conjecture on the relationship between the Randić index and the diameter: for any connected graph on n ≥ 3 vertices with the Randić index R(G) and the diameter D(G), R(G) − D(G) ≥ √ 2 − n+1 2 and R(G...

let $d$ be a digraph with vertex set $v(d)$. for vertex $vin v(d)$, the degree of $v$,denoted by $d(v)$, is defined as the minimum value if its out-degree and its in-degree.now let $d$ be a digraph with minimum degree $deltage 1$ and edge-connectivity$lambda$. if $alpha$ is real number, then the zeroth-order general randic index is definedby $sum_{xin v(d)}(d(x))^{alpha}$. a digraph is maximall...

Topological indices are the mathematical tools that correlate the chemical structure with various physical properties, chemical reactivity or biological activity numerically. A topological index is a function having a set of graphs as its domain and a set of real numbers as its range. In QSAR/QSPR study, a prediction about the bioactivity of chemical compounds is made on the basis of physico-ch...

Given a connected graph G, the Randić index R(G) is the sum of 1 √ d(u)d(v) over all edges {u, v} of G, where d(u) and d(v) are the degree of vertices u and v respectively. Let q(G) be the largest eigenvalue of the singless Laplacian matrix of G and n = |V (G)|. Hansen and Lucas (2010) made the following conjecture:

In this paper, we defined a novel delta value di in molecular connectivity, and then obtained a novel kind of valence molecular connectivity index. The potential usefulness of the novel kind of valence molecular connectivity index in QSAR/QSPR is evaluated by its correlation with a number of molecules and by a favorable comparison with models based on molecular connectivity index. q 2003 Elsevi...
