The eccentric connectivity index of a graph $G$ is $\xi^c(G) = \sum_{v \in V(G)}\varepsilon(v)\deg(v)$, and the eccentric distance sum is $\xi^d(G) = \sum_{v \in V(G)}\varepsilon(v)D(v)$, where $\varepsilon(v)$ is the eccentricity of $v$,…
Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $V$ and a {\em weight function} $\rho$ that assigns a nonnegative number to each of its vertices. Then, the {\em $\rho$-moment} of $G$ at vertex $u$ is defined to be $M_G^{\rho}(u)=\sum_{v\in V}…
The concept of $n$-distance was recently introduced to generalize the classical definition of distance to functions of $n$ arguments. In this paper we investigate this concept through a number of examples based on certain geometrical…
The reciprocal degree resistance distance index of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $RDR(G)=\sum\limits_{\{u,v\}\subseteq V(G)}\frac {d_G(u)+d_G(v)}{r_G(u,v)}$, where $r_G(u,v)$ is the resistance distance between vertices $u$ and $v$ in…
The proximity $\pi = \pi (G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is the minimum, over all vertices, of the average distance from a vertex to all others. Similarly, the maximum is called the remoteness and denoted by $\rho = \rho (G)$. The concepts of…
The vertices of an interval graph represent intervals over a real line where overlapping intervals denote that their corresponding vertices are adjacent. This implies that the vertices are measurable by a metric and there exists a linear…
For any graph $G = (V,E)$ and positive integer $d$, the exact distance-$d$ graph $G_{=d}$ is the graph with vertex set $V$, where two vertices are adjacent if and only if the distance between them in $G$ is $d$. We study the exact…
This survey paper focuses on the estimation schemes in molecular communication (MC) systems. The existing studies in estimation schemes can be divided into parameter estimation (e.g., distance, diffusion coefficient, and flow velocity) and…
The \emph{Wiener polynomial} of a connected graph $G$ is the polynomial $W(G;x) = \sum_{i=1}^{D(G)} d_i(G)x^i$ where $D(G)$ is the diameter of $G$, and $d_i(G)$ is the number of pairs of vertices at distance $i$ from each other. We examine…
The first and the second Zagreb eccentricity index of a graph $G$ are defined as $E_1(G)=\sum_{v\in V(G)}\varepsilon_{G}(v)^{2}$ and $E_2(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\varepsilon_{G}(u)\varepsilon_{G}(v)$, respectively, where $\varepsilon_G(v)$ is…
