Hyper-Wiener index was introduced as one of the main generalizations of the well known Wiener index. Through the years properties of the Wiener index have been extensively studied in both Mathematics and Chemistry. The Hyper-Wiener index,…

The Wiener index W(G) of a simple connected graph G is defined as the sum of distances over all pairs of vertices in a graph. We denote by W[T_{n}] the set of all values of Wiener index for a graph from class T_{n} of trees on n vertices.…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. The Steiner distance $d(S)$ of a set $S$ of vertices is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of $G$ containing all vertices of $S$. For $k\in \mathbb{N}$, the Steiner $k$-Wiener index $SW_k(G)$ is defined…

Fullerene graphs are mathematical models of fullerene molecules. The Wiener $(r,s)$-complexity of a fullerene graph $G$ with vertex set $V(G)$ is the number of pairwise distinct values of $(r,s)$-transmission $tr_{r,s}(v)$ of its vertices…

Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…

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…

The Hosoya polynomial of a graph encompasses many of its metric properties, for instance the Wiener index (alias average distance) and the hyper-Wiener index. An expression is obtained that reduces the computation of the Hosoya polynomials…

The transmission of a vertex $v$ in a (chemical) graph $G$ is the sum of distances from $v$ to other vertices in $G$. If any two vertices of $G$ have different transmissions, then $G$ is transmission irregular. The Wiener index $W(G)$ of a…

Cut vertices are often used as a measure of nodes' importance within a network. They are those nodes whose failure disconnects a graph. Let N(G) be the number of connected induced subgraphs of a graph $G$. In this work, we investigate the…

Consider a graph $G$ and a real-valued function $f$ defined on the degree set of $G$. The sum of the outputs $f(d_v)$ over all vertices $v\in V(G)$ of $G$ is usually known as the vertex-degree-function indices and is denoted by $H_f(G)$,…

The eccentricity of a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$ is the distance between $u$ and a vertex farthest from it; the eccentric sequence of $G$ is the nondecreasing sequence of the eccentricities of $G$. In this paper, we determine the…

The Wiener polynomial of a connected graph $G$ is defined as $W(G;x)=\sum x^{d(u,v)}$, where $d(u,v)$ denotes the distance between $u$ and $v$, and the sum is taken over all unordered pairs of distinct vertices of $G$. We examine the nature…
