Background: Ensuring adequate depth of anesthesia during surgery is essential for anesthesiologists to prevent the occurrence of unwanted alertness during surgery or failure to return to consciousness. Since the purpose of using anesthetics is to affect the central nervous system, brain signal processing such as electroencephalography (EEG) can be used to predict different levels of anesthesia....

let g be a graph. in this paper, we study the eccentric connectivity index, the new version ofthe second zagreb index and the forth geometric–arithmetic index.. the basic properties ofthese novel graph descriptors and some inequalities for them are established.

The present note is devoted to establish some extremal results for the zerothorder general Randić index of cacti, characterize the extremal polyomino chains with respect to the aforementioned index, and hence to generalize two already reported results.

Let T ∆ n denote the set of trees of order n, in which the degree of each vertex is bounded by some integer ∆. Suppose that every tree in T ∆ n is equally likely. We show that the number of vertices of degree j in T ∆ n is asymptotically normal with mean (μj + o(1))n and variance (σj + o(1))n, where μj , σj are some constants. As a consequence, we give estimate to the value of the general Zagre...

The general Randić index Rα(G) is the sum of the weight d(u)d(v)α over all edges uv of a graph G, where α is a real number and d(u) is the degree of the vertex u of G. In this paper, for any real number α = 0, the first three minimum general Randić indices among trees are determined, and the corresponding extremal trees are characterized.

Let Tn denote the set of all unrooted and unlabeled trees with n vertices, and (i, j) a double-star. By assuming that every tree of Tn is equally likely, we show that the limiting distribution of the number of occurrences of the double-star (i, j) in Tn is normal. Based on this result, we obtain the asymptotic value of Randić index for trees. Fajtlowicz conjectured that for any connected graph ...

We derived explicit formulae for the eccentric connectivity index and Wiener index of 2-dimensional square-octagonal TUC4C8(R) lattices with open and closed ends. New compression factors for both indices are also computed in the limit N-->∞.
