In this paper we introduce a variation of the well-known Zagreb indices by considering a proper vertex colouring of a graph $G$. The chromatic Zagreb indices are defined in terms of the parameter $c(v), v \in V(G)$ instead of the invariant…

The F-index of a graph is defined as the sum of cubes of the vertex degrees of the graph. This was introduced in 1972, in the same paper where the first and second Zagreb indices were introduced to study the structure-dependency of total…

Let $G$ be a group and $L(G)$ be the set of all subgroups of $G$. The subgroup generating bipartite graph $\mathcal{B}(G)$ defined on $G$ is a bipartite graph whose vertex set is partitioned into two sets $G \times G$ and $L(G)$, and two…

We introduce a generalized Grover matrix of a graph and present an explicit formula for its characteristic polynomial. As a corollary, we give the spectra for the generalized Grover matrix of a regular graph. Next, we define a zeta function…

For a graph $G$, the first multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_1(G) $ is the product of squares of vertex degrees, and the second multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_2(G) $ is the product of products of degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices.…

The Zagreb index of a hypergraph is defined as the sum of the squares of the degrees of its vertices. A connected $k$-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges is called bicyclic if $n=m(k-1)-1$. In this paper, we determine the…

In this paper we compute first and second Zagreb indices of commuting and non-commuting graphs of finite groups and determine several classes of finite groups such that their commuting and non-commuting graphs satisfy Hansen-Vuki\v{c}evi\'c…

We enumerate the independent sets of several classes of regular and almost regular graphs and compute the corresponding generating functions. We also note the relations between these graphs and other combinatorial objects and, in some…

The Zagreb index, which is defined as the sum of squares of degrees of the nodes of a tree, was studied in previous works by martingale techniques for random non-plane recursive trees and classes of random trees which are close to random…

Let G be a graph with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G). The first generalized multiplicative Zagreb index of G is M_1(G) and the second multiplicative Zagreb index is M_2(G). The multiplicative Zagreb indices have been the focus of…

Let us call a simple graph on $n\geq 2$ vertices a prime gap graph if its vertex degrees are $1$ and the first $n-1$ prime gaps. We show that such a graph exists for every large $n$, and in fact for every $n\geq 2$ if we assume the Riemann…

In this paper, we examine a specific type of random chains and propose an unified approach to studying the degree-based topological indices, including their extreme values. We derive explicit analytical expressions for the expected values…

For a (molecular) graph, the first multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_1(G) $ is the product of the square of every vertex degree, and the second multiplicative Zagreb index $\prod_2(G) $ is the product of the products of degrees of pairs of…

Graph compositions generalize both integer compositions and partitions of a finite set. We develop formulas, generating functions and recurrence relations for composition counting functions for several families of graphs.

Let $\prod(G)$ be Multiplicative Zagreb index of a graph G. A connected graph is a cactus graph if and only if any two of its cycles have at most one vertex in common, which has been the interest of researchers in the filed of material…

The authors Mili$\breve{c}$evi$\acute{c}$ et al. introduced the reformulated Zagreb indices, which is a generalization of classical Zagreb indices of chemical graph theory. In the paper, we characterize the extremal properties of the first…

In a recent article, Nadeem and Siddique used Chebyshev's sum inequality to establish the Zagreb indices inequality $M_1/n\le M_2/m$ for undirected graphs in the case where the degree sequence $(d_i)$ and the degree-sum sequence $(S_i)$ are…

Making use of a majorization technique for a suitable class of graphs, we derive upper and lower bounds for some topological indices depending on the degree sequence over all vertices, namely the first general Zagreb index and the first…

A mixed graph can be seen as a type of digraph containing some edges (two opposite arcs). Here we introduce the concept of sequence mixed graphs, which is a generalization of both sequence graphs and iterated line digraphs. These structures…

This paper presents new lower bounds for the first general Zagreb index $Z_{\alpha}(G)$ involving two, three, and four arbitrary degrees of vertices of a simple graph $G$. For the special cases $\alpha = 2$ and $\alpha = -2$, the results…
