Extremal vertex-degree function index for trees and unicyclic graphs with given independence number

扫码查看
In this paper the problem of maximizing vertex-degree function index H-f(G) for trees and unicyclic graphs G of order n and independence number s is solved for strictly convex functions f (x). In the case of unicyclic graphs f(x) must also satisfy strict inequality f(4) + 3f(2) > 3f(3) +f(1). These conditions are fulfilled by general first Zagreb index R-0(alpha)(G) for alpha > 2, second multiplicative Zagreb index Pi(2)(G) and sum lordeg index SL(G). The extremal graphs are unique and they are stars or have diameter equal to three or to four. The same results are valid for the corresponding minimization problem when f(x) is strictly concave and the inequality is reversed. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
