The augmented eccentric connectivity index is defined as the summation of the quotients of the product of adjacent vertex degrees and eccentricity of the concerned vertex of a graph which is a generalization of eccentric connectivity index. In this paper we present explicit expressions for the values of augmented eccentric connectivity indices of some particular thorn graphs like thorn path, th...

A generalization of both the hierarchical product and the Cartesian product of graphs is introduced and some of its properties are studied. We call it the generalized hierarchical product. In fact, the obtained graphs turn out to be subgraphs of the Cartesian product of the corresponding factors. Thus, some well-known properties of this product, such as a good connectivity, reduced mean distanc...

let $gamma_{n,kappa}$ be the class of all graphs with $ngeq3$ vertices and $kappageq2$ vertex connectivity. denote by $upsilon_{n,beta}$ the family of all connected graphs with $ngeq4$ vertices and matching number $beta$ where $2leqbetaleqlfloorfrac{n}{2}rfloor$. in the classes of graphs $gamma_{n,kappa}$ and $upsilon_{n,beta}$, the elements having maximum augmented zagreb index are determined.

In theoretical chemistry, -modified Wiener index is a graph invariant topological index to analyze the chemical properties of molecular structure. In this note, we determine the minimum -modified Wiener index of graph with fixed connectivity or edge-connectivity. Our results also present the sufficient and necessary condition for reaching the lower bound.

let g be a connected simple (molecular) graph. the distance d(u, v) between two vertices u and v of g is equal to the length of a shortest path that connects u and v. in this paper we compute some distance based topological indices of h-phenylenic nanotorus. at first we obtain an exactformula for the wiener index. as application we calculate the schultz index and modified schultz index of this ...

the eccentricity connectivity index of a molecular graph g is defined as (g) = av(g)deg(a)ε(a), where ε(a) is defined as the length of a maximal path connecting a to othervertices of g and deg(a) is degree of vertex a. here, we compute this topological index forsome infinite classes of dendrimer graphs.

in this paper we present explicit formulas for the eccentric connectivity index of three classesof chain hexagonal cacti. further, it is shown that the extremal chain hexagonal cacti withrespect to the eccentric connectivity index belong to one of the considered types. some openproblems and possible directions of further research are mentioned in the concluding section.

in this paper, we calculate the eccentric connectivity index and the eccentricity sequence of two infinite classes of fullerenes with 50 + 10k and 60 + 12k (k in n) carbon atoms.

In this paper, we obtain the upper and lower bounds on the eccen- tricity connectivity index of unicyclic graphs with perfect matchings. Also we give some lower bounds on the eccentric connectivity index of unicyclic graphs with given matching numbers.

In this paper we present explicit formulas for the eccentric connectivity index of three classes of chain hexagonal cacti. Further, it is shown that the extremal chain hexagonal cacti with respect to the eccentric connectivity index belong to one of the considered types.
