The atom-bond connectivity index of graph is a topological index proposed by Estrada et al. as ABC (G)  uvE (G ) (du dv  2) / dudv , where the summation goes over all edges of G, du and dv are the degrees of the terminal vertices u and v of edge uv. In the present paper, some upper bounds for the second type of atom-bond connectivity index are computed.

Topological indices have been used to modeling biological and chemical properties of molecules in quantitive structure property relationship studies and quantitive structure activity studies. All the degree based topological indices have been defined via classical degree concept. In this paper we define a novel degree concept for a vertex of a simple connected graph: R degree. And also we defin...

Wiener index is a topological index based on distance between every pair of vertices in a graph G. It was introduced in 1947 by one of the pioneer of this area e.g, Harold Wiener. In the present paper, by using a new method introduced by klavžar we compute the Wiener and Szeged indices of some nanostar dendrimers.

The chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by χ(G), is the minimum number of colors such that G can be colored with these colors in such a way that no two adjacent vertices have the same color. A clique in a graph is a set of mutually adjacent vertices. The maximum size of a clique in a graph G is called the clique number of G. The Turán graph Tn(k) is a complete k-partite graph whose partition...

A set S of vertices in a graph G=(V,E) is a dominating set ofG if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex of S.For an integer k≥1, a set S of vertices is a k-step dominating set if any vertex of $G$ is at distance k from somevertex of S. In this paper, using membership values of vertices and edges in fuzzy graphs, we introduce the concepts of strength of strongestdominating set as well a...

the wiener index $w(g)$ of a connected graph $g$‎ ‎is defined as $w(g)=sum_{u,vin v(g)}d_g(u,v)$‎ ‎where $d_g(u,v)$ is the distance between the vertices $u$ and $v$ of‎ ‎$g$‎. ‎for $ssubseteq v(g)$‎, ‎the {it steiner distance/} $d(s)$ of‎ ‎the vertices of $s$ is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of‎ ‎$g$ whose vertex set is $s$‎. ‎the {it $k$-th steiner wiener index/}‎ ‎$sw_k(g)$ of $g$ ...

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple connectedgraph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and sequence of vertex degrees$d_1 ge d_2 ge cdots ge d_n>0$, $d_i=d(v_i)$, where $v_iin V$. With $isim j$ we denote adjacency ofvertices $v_i$ and $v_j$. The generalsum--connectivity index of graph is defined as $chi_{alpha}(G)=sum_{isim j}(d_i+d_j)^{alpha}$, where $alpha$ is an arbitrary real<b...
