We present lower and upper bounds on the general multiplicative Zagreb indices for bicyclic graphs of a given order and number of pendant vertices. Then, we generalize our methods and obtain bounds for the general multiplicative Zagreb indices of tricyclic graphs, tetracyclic graphs and graphs of given order, size and number of pendant vertices. We show that all our bounds are sharp by presenting extremal graphs including graphs with symmetries. Bounds for the classical multiplicative Zagreb indices are special cases of our results.

The [Formula: see text]-index of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is defined as the sum of weights [Formula: see text] over all edges [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give sharp upper bounds of the [Formula: see text]-index (forgotten topological index) over bicyclic graphs, in terms of the order and maximum degree.

The energy of a graph G, ?(G), is the sum of absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. The matching number ?(G) is the number of edges in a maximum matching. In this paper, for a connected graph G of order n with largest vertex degree ? ? 6 we present two new upper bounds for the energy of a graph: ?(G) ? (n-1)?? and ?(G) ? 2?(G)??. The latter one improves recently obtained bound ?(G) ? {2?(G)?2?e + 1, if ?e is even; ?(G)(? a + 2?a + ?a-2?a), otherwise, where ?e stands for the largest edge degree and a = 2(?e + 1). We also present a short proof of this result and several open problems.

Let [Formula: see text] be the edge ideal of a bicyclic graph [Formula: see text] with a dumbbell as the base graph. In this paper, we characterize the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of [Formula: see text] in terms of the induced matching number of [Formula: see text]. For the base case of this family of graphs, i.e. dumbbell graphs, we explicitly compute the induced matching number. Moreover, we prove that [Formula: see text], for all [Formula: see text], when [Formula: see text] is a dumbbell graph with a connecting path having no more than two vertices.

The reformulated Zagreb indices of a graph are obtained from the original Zagreb indices by replacing vertex degrees with edge degrees, where the degree of an edge is taken as the sum of degrees of its two end vertices minus 2. In this paper, we obtain two upper bounds of the first reformulated Zagreb index among all graphs with p pendant vertices and all graphs having key vertices for which they will become trees after deleting their one key vertex. Moreover, the corresponding extremal graphs which attained these bounds are characterized.

"General multiplicative Zagreb indices generalize well-known multiplicative Zagreb indices of graphs. We present lower and upper bounds on the general multiplicative Zagreb indices for unicyclic graphs with given number of vertices and diameter/number of pendant vertices/cycle of given length. All bounds are best possible. Bounds on the classical multiplicative Zagreb indices of unicyclic graphs are corollaries of the general results. "

In this paper, we present the upper bounds for the product version of reciprocal Gutman indices of the tensor product, join and strong product of two connected graphs in terms of other graph invariants including the Harary index and Zagreb indices.

The hyper-Zagreb index is an important branch in the Zagreb indices family, which is defined as∑uv∈E(G)‍(d(u)+d(v))2, whered(v)is the degree of the vertexvin a graphG=(V(G),E(G)). In this paper, the monotonicity of the hyper-Zagreb index under some graph transformations was studied. Using these nice mathematical properties, the extremal graphs amongn-vertex trees (acyclic), unicyclic, and bicyclic graphs are determined for hyper-Zagreb index. Furthermore, the sharp upper and lower bounds on the hyper-Zagreb index of these graphs are provided.
