Bounds of Zagreb indices and hyper Zagreb indices (1612.02361v1)

Abstract: The hyper Zagreb index is a kind of extensions of Zagreb index, used for predicting physicochemical properties of organic compounds. Given a graph $G= (V(G), E(G))$, the first hyper-Zagreb index is the sum of the square of edge degree over edge set $E(G)$ and defined as $HM_1(G)=\sum_{e=uv\in E(G)}d(e)^2$, where $d(e)=d(u)+d(v)$ is the edge degree. In this work we define the second hyper-Zagreb index on the adjacent edges as $HM_2(G)=\sum_{e\sim f}d(e)d(f)$, where $e\sim f$ represents the adjacent edges of $G$. By inequalities, we explore some upper and lower bounds of these hyper-Zagreb indices, and provide the relation between Zagreb indices and hyper Zagreb indices.
