for a graph $g$ with edge set $e(g)$, the multiplicative sum zagreb index of $g$ is defined as$pi^*(g)=pi_{uvin e(g)}[d_g(u)+d_g(v)]$, where $d_g(v)$ is the degree of vertex $v$ in $g$.in this paper, we first introduce some graph transformations that decreasethis index. in application, we identify the fourteen class of trees, with the first through fourteenth smallest multiplicative sum zagreb ...

Introduction: Ensuring an adequate Depth of Anesthesia (DOA) during surgery is essential for anesthesiologists. Since the effect of anesthetic drugs is on the central nervous system, brain signals such as Electroencephalogram (EEG) can be used for DOA estimation. Anesthesia can interfere among brain regions, so the relationship among different areas can be a key factor in the anesthetic process...

Let G be a graph. In this paper, we study the eccentric connectivity index, the new version of the second Zagreb index and the forth geometric–arithmetic index.. The basic properties of these novel graph descriptors and some inequalities for them are established.

To obtain evidence linking long-term potentiation (LTP) and memory, we examined whether LTP induction modifies functional relationship among neurons in the rat hippocampus. In contrast to neurons in low-frequency stimulated or AP5-treated slices, LTP induction altered 'functional connectivity,' as defined by the degree of synchronous firing, among simultaneously recorded neurons in the CA3 regi...

Abstract In this note, we show a sharp lower bound of $$\min \left\{{\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^k {{d_G}({u_i}):{u_1}{u_2} \ldots {u_k}}} \right.$$ min { ∑ i = 1 k </mml:msubs...

The eccentric connectivity index ξ is a novel distance–based molecular structure descriptor that was recently used for mathematical modeling of biological activities of diverse nature. It is defined as ξ(G) = ∑ v∈V (G) deg(v) · ε(v) , where deg(v) and ε(v) denote the vertex degree and eccentricity of v , respectively. We survey some mathematical properties of this index and furthermore support ...
