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…

The first multiplicative Zagreb index $\Pi_1$ of a graph $G$ is the product of the square of every vertex degree, while the second multiplicative Zagreb index $\Pi_2$ is the product of the products of degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices.…

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…

The \emph{eccentricity} of a vertex $u$ in a graph $G$, denoted by $e_G(u)$, is the maximum distance from $u$ to other vertices in $G$. We study extremal problems for the average eccentricity and the first and second Zagreb eccentricity…

For a graph $G$, the general reduced second Zagreb index is defined as $$GRM_\lambda (G) = \sum_{uv \in E} (deg(u) + \lambda) (deg(v) + \lambda),$$ where $\lambda$ is an arbitrary real number and $deg (v)$ is the degree of the vertex $v$.…

Let $\mathbb{G} = (\mathcal{V}, \mathcal{E})$ be a simple connected graph, where $\mathcal{V}$ and $\mathcal{E}$ denote the vertex and edge sets, respectively. The first Zagreb index is defined as $\mathcal{M}_{1}(\mathbb{G}) = \sum_{v \in…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. The revised edge Szeged index of $G$ is defined as $Sz^{\ast}_{e}(G)=\sum\limits_{e=uv\in E(G)}(m_{u}(e|G)+\frac{m_{0}(e|G)}{2})(m_{v}(e|G)+\frac{m_{0}(e|G)}{2})$, where $m_{u}(e|G)$ (resp., $m_{v}(e|G)$) is…

We consider topological indices I that are sums of f(deg(u)) f(deg(v)), where {u,v} are adjacent vertices and f is a function. The Randi{\'c} connectivity index or the Zagreb group index are examples for indices of this kind. In earlier…
