چکیده

The connectivity index wα(G) of a graph G is the sum of the weights (d(u)d(v)) of all edges uv of G, where α is a real number (α 6= 0), and d(u) denotes the degree of the vertex u. Let T be a tree with n vertices and k pendant vertices. In this paper, we give sharp lower and upper bounds for w1(T ). Also, for −1 ≤ α < 0, we give a sharp lower bound and a upper bound for wα(T ).

Chain hexagonal cacti: extremal with respect to the eccentric connectivity index

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. Some open problems and possible directions of further research are mentioned in the concluding section.

Eccentric Connectivity Index: Extremal Graphs and Values

Eccentric connectivity index has been found to have a low degeneracy and hence a significant potential of predicting biological activity of certain classes of chemical compounds. We present here explicit formulas for eccentric connectivity index of various families of graphs. We also show that the eccentric connectivity index grows at most polynomially with the number of vertices and determine ...

On augmented eccentric connectivity index of graphs and trees

In this paper we establish all extremal graphs with respect to augmented eccentric connectivity index among all (simple connected) graphs, among trees and among trees with perfect matching. For graphs that turn out to be extremal explicit formulas for the value of augmented eccentric connectivity index are derived.

On the extremal total irregularity index of n-vertex trees with fixed maximum degree

In the extension of irregularity indices, Abdo et. al. [1] defined the total irregu-larity of a graph G = (V, E) as irrt(G) = 21 Pu,v∈V (G) du − dv, where du denotesthe vertex degree of a vertex u ∈ V (G). In this paper, we investigate the totalirregularity of trees with bounded maximal degree Δ and state integer linear pro-gramming problem which gives standard information about extremal trees a...

The eccentric connectivity index of bucket recursive trees

If $G$ is a connected graph with vertex set $V$, then the eccentric connectivity index of $G$, $xi^c(G)$, is defined as $sum_{vin V(G)}deg(v)ecc(v)$ where $deg(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ and $ecc(v)$ is its eccentricity. In this paper we show some convergence in probability and an asymptotic normality based on this index in random bucket recursive trees.
