The first Zagreb index $M_{1}$ of a graph is defined as the sum of the square of every vertex degree, and the second Zagreb index $M_{2}$ of a graph is defined as the sum of the product of vertex degrees of each pair of adjacent vertices.…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph with $n = |V|$ vertices and $m = |E|$ edges. The first and second Zagreb indices are among the oldest and the most famous topological indices, defined as $M_1 = \sum_{i \in V} d_i^2$ and $M_2 = \sum_{(i, j)…

Let $G$ be a graph with order $n(G)$, size $m(G)$, first Zagreb index $M_1(G)$, and second Zagreb index $M_2(G)$. More than twenty years ago, it was conjectured that $\frac{M_1(G)}{n(G)} \leq \frac{M_2(G)}{m(G)}$. Later, Hansen and…

We examine the quantity \[S(G) = \sum_{uv\in E(G)} \min(\text{deg } u, \text{deg } v)\] over sets of graphs with a fixed number of edges. The main result shows the maximum possible value of $S(G)$ is achieved by three different classes of…

Topological relations between three degree-based invariants of a connected graph G are investigated. We present novel inequalities including M1(G), M2(G) and F(G), and show that in all cases equality holds if G is a regular or a semiregular…
