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…

The complementary second Zagreb index of a graph $G$ is defined as $cM_2(G)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}|(d_u(G))^2-(d_v(G))^2|$, where $d_u(G)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u$ in $G$ and $E(G)$ represents the edge set of $G$. Let $G^*$ be a graph…

The Szeged index of a graph is an invariant with several applications in chemistry. The power graph of a finite group $G$ is a graph having vertex set as $G$ in which two vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent if $v=u^m$ or $u=v^n$ for some…
