This chapter deals with computation of viscosity of 35 alcohols at 20C with the computational tools Multi-linear Regression (MLR) and Associative Neural Network(ASNN) . The four descriptors are used which are variable Zagreb index, Number of Hydroxyl Groups(NOH), Molecular Weight (MW) and Number of Carbon atoms (Nc). MLR is used to optimize the parameter(λ) in the variable Zagreb index by minim...

In mathematical chemistry, a particular attention is given to degree-based graph invariant. The Zagrebpolynomial is one of the degree based polynomials considered in chemical graph theory. A dendrimer isan artificially manufactured or synthesized molecule built up from branched units called monomers. Inthis note, the first, second and third Zagreb poly...

We give sharp upper bounds on the Zagreb indices and lower bounds on the Zagreb coindices of chemical trees and characterize the case of equality for each of these topological invariants.

Let k ≥ 2 be an integer, a k-decomposition (G1,G2, . . . ,Gk) of the complete graph Kn is a partition of its edge set to form k spanning subgraphs G1,G2, . . . ,Gk. In this contribution, we investigate the Nordhaus–Gaddum-type inequality of a k-decomposition of Kn for the general Zagreb index and a 2-decomposition for the Zagreb co-indices, respectively. The corresponding extremal graphs are ch...

For a nontrivial graph G, its first and second Zagreb coindices are defined [1], respectively, as M1(G) = ∑ uv ∈E(G) (dG(u)+dG(v)) and M2(G) = ∑ uv ∈E(G) dG(u)dG(v), where dG(x) is the degree of vertex x in G. In this paper, we obtained some new properties of Zagreb coindices. We mainly give explicit formulae for the first Zagreb coindex of line graphs and total graphs. Mathematics Subject Clas...

Given a tree T = (V,E), the second Zagreb index of T is denoted by M2(T ) = ∑ uv∈E d(u)d(v) and the Wiener polarity index of T is equal to WP (T ) = ∑ uv∈E(d(u)−1)(d(v)−1). Let π = (d1, d2, ..., dn) and π′ = (d1, d2, ..., dn) be two different non-increasing tree degree sequences. We write π π′, if and only if ∑n i=1 di = ∑n i=1 d ′ i, and ∑j i=1 di ≤ ∑j i=1 d ′ i for all j = 1, 2, ..., n. Let Γ...

The F-index of a graph is defined as the sum of cubes of the vertex degrees of the graph which was introduced in 1972, in the same paper where the first and second Zagreb indices were introduced. In this paper we study the F-index of four operations on graphs which were introduced by Eliasi and Taeri [M. Eliasi, B. Taeri, Four new sums of graphs and their Wiener indices, Discrete Appl.
