The first Zagreb index of a graph G, with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G), is defined as M1(G) = ∑ u∈V (G) d(u) 2 where d(u) denotes the degree of the vertex v. An alternative expression for M1(G) is ∑ uv∈E(G)[d(u) + d(v)]. We consider a multiplicative version of M1 defined as Π∗1(G) = ∏ uv∈E(G)[d(u) + d(v)]. We prove that among all connected graphs with a given number of vertices, the path ...

For a (molecular) graph, the multiplicative Zagreb indices ∏ 1-index and ∏ 2index are multiplicative versions of the ordinary Zagreb indices (M1-index and M2index). In this note we report several sharp upper bounds for ∏ 1-index in terms of graph parameters including the order, size, radius, Wiener index and eccentric distance sum, and upper bounds for ∏ 2-index in terms of graph parameters inc...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph, where V(G) is a non-empty set of vertices and E(G) is a set of edges, e = uv∈E(G), d(u) is degree of vertex u. Then the first Zagreb polynomial and the first Zagreb index Zg1(G,x) and Zg1(G) of the graph G are defined as ( ) ( ) ∑ u v u d v E G d x + ∈ and ( ) ( ) ∑ e u G v uv E d d = ∈ + respectively. Recently Ghorbani and Hosseinzadeh introduced the first Eccentric Z...

Topological indices are widely used as mathematical tools to analyze different types of graphs emerged in a broad range of applications. The Hyper-Zagreb index (HM) is an important tool because it integrates the first two Zagreb indices. In this paper, we characterize the trees and unicyclic graphs with the first four and first eight greatest HM-value, respectively.

The variable Zagreb (v)M(2) index is introduced and applied to the structure-boiling point modeling of benzenoid hydrocarbons. The linear model obtained (the standard error of estimate for the fit model S(fit)=6.8 degrees C) is much better than the corresponding model based on the original Zagreb M2 index (S(fit)=16.4 degrees C). Surprisingly,the model based on the variable vertex-connectivity ...

In this note, we give expressions for the first(second) Zagreb coindex, second Zagreb index(coindex), third Zagreb index and first hyper-Zagreb index of the line graphs of subdivision graphs of 2D-lattice, nanotube and nanotorus of TUC4C8[p, q] and obtain upper bounds for Wiener index and degree-distance index of these graphs. This note continue the program of computing certain topological indi...

Many existing degree based topological indices can be clasified as bond incident degree (BID) indices, whose general form is BID(G) = ∑ uv∈E(G) Ψ(du, dv), where uv is the edge connecting the vertices u, v of the graph G, E(G) is the edge set of G, du is the degree of the vertex u and Ψ is a non-negative real valued (symmetric) function of du and dv. Here, it has been proven that if the extensio...

The Zagreb eccentricity indices are the eccentricity reformulation of the Zagreb indices. Let H be a simple graph. The first Zagreb eccentricity index (E1(H)) is defined to be the summation of squares of the eccentricity of vertices, i.e., E1(H) = ∑u∈V(H) Symmetry 2016, 9, 7; doi: 10.3390/sym9010007 www.mdpi.com/journal/symmetry Article First and Second Zagreb Eccentricity Indices of Thorny Gra...

in this paper, a new molecular-structure descriptor, the general sum–connectivity co–index  is considered, which generalizes the first zagreb co–index and the general sum–connectivity index of graph theory. we mainly explore the lower and upper bounds in termsof the order and size for this new invariant. additionally, the nordhaus–gaddum–type resultis also represented.
