New Relations Between Zagreb Indices and Omega Invariant.
In this work, we studied the problem of determining the values of the Zagreb indices of all the realizations of a given degree sequence. We first obtained some new relations between the first and second Zagreb indices and the forgotten index sometimes called the third Zagreb index. These relations also include the triangular numbers, order, size, and the biggest vertex degree of a given graph. As the first Zagreb index and the forgotten index of all the realizations of a given degree sequence are fixed, we concentrated on the values of the second Zagreb index and studied several properties including the effect of vertex addition. In our calculations, we make use of a new graph invariant, called omega invariant, to reach numerical and topological values claimed in the theorems. This invariant is closely related to Euler characteristic and the cyclomatic number of graphs. Therefore this invariant is used in the calculation of some parameters of the molecular structure under review in terms of vertex degrees, eccentricity, and distance.

In mathematical chemistry, topological indices are molecular descriptors that are calculated on the molecular graph of a chemical compound. The molecular graph is a graph which is obtained from some chemical structures. The degree of every molecular graph cannot exceeds 4. Topological indices are numerical quantities of a graph that describe its topology. An atom represents a vertex and a bond between two atoms represents an edge in a molecular graph. Mainly there are three types of topological indices viz., degree-based, distance based and eigenvalue-based topological indices. The first degree-based topological indices are the first and second Zagreb indices. The first Zagreb index M_1 is defined as the sum of squares of degrees of each vertex in a graph G and the second Zagreb index M_2 is the product of degree of every adjacent vertices. In this case the summation goes on the set of edges of a graph G. The most studied topological indices are degree-based topological indices. Motivated by these topological indices in this paper, we introduce five new degree-based topological indices based on the neighborhood degree of a vertex. Further, we compute the values of various nanostructures like hexagonal parallelogram P(m,n) nanotube, triangular benzenoid G_n,zigzag-edge coronoid fused with starphene nanotubes ZCS(k,l,m), dominating derived networks D_1,D_2,D_3, Porphyrin Dendrimer, Zinc-Porphyrin Dendrimer, Propyl Ether Imine Dendrimer, Poly(Ethylene amido amine Dendrimer, PAMAM dendrimers(????????1,????????2,????????1), linear polyomino chain L_n,Z_n,B_n^1 (n≥3),B_n^2 (n≥3) and triangular, hourglass, and jagged-rectangle benzenoid systems of these indices. The standard computational techniques are used for the computation of topological indices of nanostructures. For the edge partition of the nanostructures the algebraic techniques are used. Using these techniques computation of topological indices became easy and also helped to get the more accurate results.

For a (molecular) graph G with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G), the first Zagreb index of G is defined as , where dG(vi) is the degree of vertex vi in G. Recently Xu et al. introduced two graphical invariants and named as first multiplicative Zagreb coindex and second multiplicative Zagreb coindex, respectively. The Narumi-Katayama index of a graph G, denoted by NK(G), is equal to the product of the degrees of the vertices of G, that is, NK(G) = . The irregularity index t(G) of G is defined as the number of distinct terms in the degree sequence of G. In this paper, we give some lower and upper bounds on the first Zagreb index M1(G) of graphs and trees in terms of number of vertices, irregularity index, maxi- mum degree, and characterize the extremal graphs. Moreover, we obtain some lower and upper bounds on the (first and second) multiplicative Zagreb coindices of graphs and characterize the extremal graphs. Finally, we present some relations between first Zagreb index and Narumi-Katayama index, and (first and second) multiplicative Zagreb index and coindices of graphs.

Degree sequence measurements on graphs have attracted a lot of research interest in recent decades. Multiplying the degrees of adjacent vertices in graph Ω provides the multiplicative first Zagreb index of a graph. In the context of graph theory, the generalized multiplicative first Zagreb index of a graph Ω is defined as the product of the sum of the αth powers of the vertex degrees of Ω, where α is a real number such that α≠0 and α≠1. The focus of this work is on the extremal graphs for several classes of graphs including trees, unicyclic, and bicyclic graphs, with respect to the generalized multiplicative first Zagreb index. In the initial step, we identify a set of operations that either increases or decreases the generalized multiplicative first Zagreb index for graphs. We then involve analysis of the generalized multiplicative first Zagreb index achieving sharp bounds by characterizing the maximum or minimum graphs for those classes. We present applications of the generalized multiplicative first Zagreb index Π1α for predicting the π-electronic energy Eπ(β) of benzenoid hydrocarbons. In particular, we answer the question concerning the value of α for which the predictive potential of Π1α with Eπ for lower benzenoid hydrocarbons is the strongest. In fact, our statistical analysis delivers that Π1α correlates with Eπ of lower benzenoid hydrocarbons with correlation coefficient ρ=−0.998, if α=−0.00496. In QSPR modeling, the value ρ=−0.998 is considered to be considerably significant.

Let $G=(V,E)$, $V=\left\{ v_{1},v_{2},\ldots ,v_{n}\right\}$, be a simple graph of order $n$ and size $m$. Denote by $\Delta = d_1\ge d_2 \ge \cdots \ge d_n= \delta$, $d_i=d(v_i)$, and $\Delta_e=d(e_1)\ge d(e_2)\ge \cdots \ge d(e_m)=\delta_e$, sequences of vertex and edge degrees, respectively. If vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ are adjacent in $G$, we write $i\sim j$. The modified second Zagreb index is defined as $M_2^*(G)=\sum_{i\sim j} \frac{1}{d_id_j}$. In this paper we determine some new upper and lower bounds on $M_2^*(G)$ for a line graph L(G) of G.

For a graph, the first (multiplicative) Zagreb index is equal to the sum (product) of squares of the vertex degrees, and the second (multiplicative) Zagreb index is equal to the sum (product) of products of the degrees of a pair of adjacent vertices. In this work, by a unified approach, we determine the extremal values of these Zagreb indices in terms of the (edge) connectivity and characterize the corresponding extremal graphs among all connected bipartite graphs of order [Formula: see text]. Our results show that the extremal graphs of given (edge) connectivity regarding the Zagreb indices and multiplicative Zagreb indices do not completely coincide with other topological indices.

The first Zagreb index M 1(G) is equal to the sum of squares of the degrees of the vertices, and the second Zagreb index M 2(G) is equal to the sum of the products of the degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices of the underlying molecular graph G. In this paper, we obtain lower and upper bounds on the first Zagreb index M 1(G) of G in terms of the number of vertices (n), number of edges (m), maximum vertex degree (Δ), and minimum vertex degree (δ). Using this result, we find lower and upper bounds on M 2(G). Also, we present lower and upper bounds on \(M_2 (G) + M_2 (\bar G)\) in terms of n, m, Δ, and δ, where \(\bar G\) denotes the complement of G. Moreover, we determine the bounds on first Zagreb coindex \(\bar M_1 (G)\) and second Zagreb coindex \(\bar M_2 (G)\). Finally, we give a relation between the first Zagreb index and the second Zagreb index of graph G.

For a (molecular) graph, the first Zagreb index M1 is equal to the sum of squares of its vertex degrees, and the second Zagreb index M2 is equal to the sum of products of degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices. A connected graph G is a cactus if any two of its cycles have at most one common vertex. In this paper, we investigate the first and the second Zagreb indices of cacti with k pendant vertices. We determine sharp bounds for M1 -, M2 -values of n-vertex cacti with k pendant vertices. As a consequence, we determine the n-vertex cacti with maximal Zagreb indices and we also determine the cactus with a perfect matching having maximal Zagreb indices.

The main object of this study is to determine the exact values of the topological indices which play a vital role in studying chemical information, structure properties like QSAR and QSPR. The first Zagreb index and second Zagreb index are among the most studied topological indices. We now consider analogous graph invariants, based on the second degrees of vertices, called leap Zagreb indices. We compute these indices for Tickysim SpiNNaker model, cyclic octahedral structure, Aztec diamond and extended Aztec diamond.

Let $G=(V,E)$, $V={v_1,v_2,ldots,v_n}$, be a simple graph with$n$ vertices, $m$ edges and a sequence of vertex degrees$Delta=d_1ge d_2ge cdots ge d_n=delta$, $d_i=d(v_i)$. Ifvertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ are adjacent in $G$, it is denoted as $isim j$, otherwise, we write $insim j$. The first Zagreb index isvertex-degree-based graph invariant defined as$M_1(G)=sum_{i=1}^nd_i^2$, whereas the first Zagreb coindex isdefined as $overline{M}_1(G)=sum_{insim j}(d_i+d_j)$. A couple of new upper and lower bounds for $M_1(G)$, as well as a new upper boundfor $overline{M}_1(G)$, are obtained.

Assuming that G is a finite group and H is a subgroup of G, the graph known as the relative coprime graph of G with respect to H (denoted as Γ_(G,H)) has vertices corresponding to elements of G. Two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent by an edge if and only if (|x|,|y|)=1 and x or y belongs to H. This paper will focus on finding the general formula for some topological indices of the relative coprime graph of a dihedral group. The study of topological indices in graph theory offers valuable insights into the structural properties of graphs. This study is conducted by reviewing many past literatures and then from there we infer a new result. The obtained outcomes will include measurements of distance, degree of vertex, and various topological indices such as the first Zagreb index, second Zagreb index, Wiener index, and Harary index that are associated with distance and degree of vertex.
