In this paper, we give solutions for the two conjectures on the inverse problem of the Wiener index of peptoids proposed by Goldman et al. We give the first conjecture a positive proof and the second conjecture a negative answer.

The Wiener index of a connected graph G, denoted by W(G) , is defined as ∑ ( , ) , ∈ ( ) .Similarly, hyper-Wiener index of a connected graph G,denoted by WW(G), is defined as ( ) + ∑ ( , ) , ∈ ( ) .In this paper, we present the explicit formulae for the Wiener, hyper-Wiener and reverse Wiener indices of some graph operations. Using the results obtained here, the exact formulae for Wiener, hyper...

Polynomial interpolation can be used to obtain closed formulas for topological indices of infinite series of molecular graphs. The method is discussed and its advantages and limitations are pointed out. This is illustrated on fullerenes C12k+4 and four topological indices: the Wiener index, the edge Wiener index, the eccentric connectivity index, and the reverse Wiener index. The results for th...

The Wiener index of a graph is the sum of all pairwise distances of vertices of the graph. Fischermann et al [5] characterized the trees which minimize the Wiener index among all trees with the maximum degree at most ∆. They also determined the trees which maximize the Wiener index, but in a much more restricted family of trees which have two distinct vertex degrees only. In this note, we fully...

‎Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a simple connected graph with vertex set V(G) and edge‎ ‎set E(G)‎. ‎The (first) edge-hyper Wiener index of the graph G is defined as‎: ‎$$WW_{e}(G)=sum_{{f,g}subseteq E(G)}(d_{e}(f,g|G)+d_{e}^{2}(f,g|G))=frac{1}{2}sum_{fin E(G)}(d_{e}(f|G)+d^{2}_{e}(f|G)),$$‎ ‎where de(f,g|G) denotes the distance between the edges f=xy and g=uv in E(G) and de(f|G)=∑g€(G)de(f,g|G). ‎In thi...

The Wiener index is one of the main descriptors that correlate a chemical compound’s molecular graph with experimentally gathered data regarding the compound’s characteristics. A long standing conjecture on the Wiener index ([4], [5]) states that for any positive integer n (except numbers from a given 49 element set), one can find a tree with Wiener index n. In this paper, we prove that every i...

For a connected graph G and an non-empty set S ⊆ V (G), the Steiner distance dG(S) among the vertices of S is defined as the minimum size among all connected subgraphs whose vertex sets contain S. This concept represents a natural generalization of the concept of classical graph distance. Recently, the Steiner Wiener index of a graph was introduced by replacing the classical graph distance used...
