On the first three minimum Mostar indices of tree-like phenylenes (2103.04018v2)
Published 6 Mar 2021 in math.CO
Abstract: Let $G =(V_{G}, E_{G})$ be a simple connected graph with its vertex set $V_{G}$ and edge set $E_{G}$. The Mostar index $Mo(G)$ was defined as $Mo(G)=\sum\limits_{e=uv\in E(G)}|n_{u}-n_{v}|$, where $n_{u}$ (resp., $n_{v}$) is the number of vertices whose distance to vertex $u$ (resp., $v$) is smaller than the distance to vertex $v$ (resp., $u$). In this study, we determine the first three minimum Mostar indices of tree-like phenylenes and characterize all the tree-like phenylenes attaining these values. At last, we give some numerical examples and discussion.
