This study reformulates Zagreb indices using edge-degrees, revealing a connection between the variable reformulated Zagreb M2 index and vertex-connectivity indices crucial for QSPR and QSAR applications.

Area of Science:

  • Chemical graph theory
  • Mathematical chemistry

Background:

  • Zagreb indices are fundamental molecular descriptors in cheminformatics.
  • Original Zagreb indices are based on vertex degrees.
  • Reformulating indices can offer new insights and predictive power.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To reformulate Zagreb indices using edge-degrees.
  • To analyze original, modified, and variable Zagreb indices.
  • To explore the relationship between reformulated indices and established topological indices.

Main Methods:

  • Reformulation of Zagreb indices based on edge-degrees.
  • Analysis of three types of Zagreb indices: original, modified, and variable.
  • Utilizing the relationship between a graph and its line graph.

Main Results:

  • The optimum exponent for the variable reformulated Zagreb M2 index was found to be v = -1/2.
  • This exponent matches that of the vertex-connectivity index.
  • Established relationships between original and reformulated Zagreb indices.

Conclusions:

  • The reformulated Zagreb indices, particularly the M2 index, show a strong link to vertex-connectivity indices.
  • This reformulation offers a new perspective on molecular descriptors for QSPR and QSAR.
  • The study highlights the utility of graph and line graph relationships in theoretical chemistry.
