The harmonic index of a graph G is defined as the sum of the weights 2/d(u)+d(v) of all edges uv of G, where d(u) denotes the degree of a vertex u in G. In this work, we present the minimum, second-minimum, maximum and second-maximum harmonic indices for unicyclic graphs with given girth, and characterize the corresponding extremal graphs.

Topological indices of graphs have been studied due to their extensive applications in chemistry. We obtain lower bounds on the general sum-connectivity index [Formula: see text] for unicyclic graphs [Formula: see text] of given girth and diameter, and for unicyclic graphs of given diameter, where [Formula: see text]. We present the extremal graphs for all the bounds. Our results generalize previously known results on the harmonic index for unicyclic graphs of given diameter.

The harmonic 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]. Hu and Zhou [WSEAS Trans. Math. 12 (2013) 716–726] proved that for any unicyclic graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] with equality if and only if [Formula: see text]. Recently, Zhong and Cui [Filomat 29 (2015) 673–686] generalized the above bound and proved that for any unicyclic graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text] other than [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we generalize the aforemention results and show that for any connected unicyclic graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text] with maximum degree [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and classify the extremal unicyclic graphs.

The total irregularity index of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined by Abdo et al. [H. Abdo, S. Brandt and D. Dimitrov, The total irregularity of a graph, Discrete Math. Theor. Comput. Sci. 16 (2014) 201–206] as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of a vertex [Formula: see text]. In 2014, You et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of unicyclic graphs, Ars Comb. 114 (2014) 153–160.] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Unicyclic graphs) and Zhou et al. [L. H. You, J. S. Yang, Y. X. Zhu and Z. F. You, The maximal total irregularity of bicyclic graphs, J. Appl. Math. 2014 (2014) 785084, http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2014/785084 ] characterized the graph having maximum [Formula: see text] value among all elements of the class [Formula: see text] (Bicyclic graphs). In this paper, we characterize the aforementioned graphs with an alternative but comparatively simple approach. Also, we characterized the graphs having maximum [Formula: see text] value among the classes [Formula: see text] (Tricyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Tetracyclic graphs), [Formula: see text] (Pentacyclic graphs) and [Formula: see text] (Hexacyclic graphs).

LetG=(V,E)be a graph. The atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index is defined as the sum of weights((du+dv−2)/dudv)1/2over all edgesuvofG, wheredudenotes the degree of a vertexuofG. In this paper, we give the atom-bond connectivity index of the zigzag chain polyomino graphs. Meanwhile, we obtain the sharp upper bound on the atom-bond connectivity index of catacondensed polyomino graphs withhsquares and determine the corresponding extremal graphs.

The harmonic index H(G) of a graph G is the sum of the weights 2/d(u)+d(v) of all edges uv of G, where d(u) denotes the degree of a vertex u in G. In this work, a lower bound for the harmonic index of a graph with minimum degree at least three is obtained and the corresponding extremal graph is characterized.

The variation of Randic index R'(G) of a graph G is defined by R'(G) = ?uv 1/ max{du,dv}, where du is the degree of a vertex u in G and the summation extends over all edges uv of G. In this work, we characterize the extremal trees achieving the minimum value of R0 for trees with given number of vertices and leaves. Furthermore, we characterize the extremal graphs achieving the minimum value of R' for connected graphs with given number of vertices and girth.

In [1], Abdo and Dimitov defined the total irregularity of a graph G=(V,E) as irrt(G)=1/2 ?u,v?V|dG(u)-dG(v)|, where dG(u) denotes the vertex degree of a vertex u ? V. In this paper, we investigate the minimal total irregularity of the connected graphs, determine the minimal, the second minimal, the third minimal total irregularity of trees, unicyclic graphs, bicyclic graphs on n vertices, and propose an open problem for further research.

The harmonic index of a graph G ( H G ) is defined as the sum of the weights 2 / d u + d v for all edges u v of G , where d u is the degree of a vertex u in G . In this paper, we show that H G ≥ D G + 5 / 3 − n / 2 and H G ≥ 1 / 2 + 2 / 3 n − 2 D G , where G is a quasi-tree graph of order n and diameter D G . Indeed, we show that both lower bounds are tight and identify all quasi-tree graphs reaching these two lower bounds.
