eccentric connectivity index has been found to have a low degeneracy and hence a significantpotential of predicting biological activity of certain classes of chemical compounds. wepresent 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 thenumber of vertices and determine the ...

For a graph G, let σ(G) = ∑ uv∈E(G) 1 √ dG(u)+dG(v) ; this defines the sum-connectivity index σ(G). More generally, given a positive function t, the edge-weight t-index t(G) is given by t(G) = ∑ uv∈E(G) t(ω(uv)), where ω(uv) = dG(u) + dG(v). We consider extremal problems for the t-index over various families of graphs. The sum-connectivity index satisfies the conditions imposed on t in each ext...

For a given graph G, ε(v) and deg(v) denote the eccentricity and the degree of the vertex v in G, respectively. The adjacent eccentric distance sum index of a graph G is defined as [Formula in text], where [Formula in text] is the sum of all distances from the vertex v. In this paper we derive some bounds for the adjacent eccentric distance sum index in terms of some graph parameters, such as i...

Abstract We consider two recent conjectures made by Harrington, Henninger-Voss, Karhadkar, Robinson and Wong concerning relationships between the sum index, difference index exclusive number of graphs. One conjecture posits an exact relationship first invariants; we show that in fact predicted value may be arbitrarily far from truth either direction. In process establish some new bounds on both...

In this paper, we extend the recently introduced vertex-degree-based topological index, Sombor and call it general index. The index generalizes both forgotten We present bounds in terms of other important graph parameters for also explore Nordhaus–Gaddum-type result further relations between generalized indices: Randić sum-connectivity

We consider $2$-colourings $f : E(G) \rightarrow \{ -1 ,1 \}$ of the edges a graph $G$ with colours $-1$ and $1$ in $\mathbb{Z}$. A subgraph $H$ is said to be zero-sum under $f$ if $f(H) := \sum_{e\in E(H)} f(e) =0$. study following type questions, several cases obtaining best possible results: Under which conditions on $|f(G)|$ can we guarantee existence spanning tree $G$? The types are comple...
