This study explores topological indices, such as the Randić index and atom-bond connectivity index, applied to non-commuting graphs of finite groups. Researchers calculated Hosoya indices for specific non-commuting graphs, advancing graph theory applications.
Area of Science:
- Graph Theory
- Abstract Algebra
- Chemical Graph Theory
Background:
- Topological indices quantify molecular structures, predicting physicochemical and thermodynamic properties.
- Non-commuting graphs represent finite group structures, with vertices as non-central elements and edges indicating non-commutation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate topological properties of non-commuting graphs of finite groups.
- To analyze Hosoya characteristics of non-commuting graphs over finite subgroups of SL(2,C).
- To calculate the Hosoya index for non-commuting graphs of binary dihedral groups.
Main Methods:
- Calculation of various topological indices including Harary, harmonic, Randić, reciprocal Wiener, atomic-bond connectivity, and geometric-arithmetic indices.
- Analysis of Hosoya polynomial and reciprocal status Hosoya polynomial for non-commuting graphs.
- Specific computation of the Hosoya index for non-commuting graphs derived from binary dihedral groups.
Main Results:
- Several topological indices were investigated for non-commuting graphs.
- Hosoya characteristics were analyzed for specific non-commuting graph structures.
- The Hosoya index was successfully computed for non-commuting graphs of binary dihedral groups.
Conclusions:
- The study successfully applies topological indices to non-commuting graphs, extending graph-theoretic analysis.
- The findings contribute to understanding the structural properties of finite groups through graph theory.
- This research provides a foundation for further exploration of topological indices in abstract algebra and chemical graph theory.

We use the laws of geometry to construct resultant vectors, followed by trigonometry to find vector magnitudes and directions. For a geometric construction of the sum of two vectors in a plane, we follow the parallelogram rule. Suppose two vectors are at arbitrary positions. Translate either one of...
