Abstract:
Graph entropy plays an essential role in interpreting the structural information and complexity measure of a network. Let G be a graph of order n. Suppose dG(vi) is degree of the vertex vi for each i=1,2,…,n. Now, the k-th degree-based graph entropy for G is defined as Id,k(G)=-∑i=1ndG(vi)k∑j=1ndG(vj)klogdG(vi)k∑j=1ndG(vj)k, where k is real number. The first-degree-based entropy is generated for k=1, which has been well nurtured in last few years. As ∑j=1ndG(vj)k yields the well-known graph invariant first Zagreb index, the Id,k for k=2 is worthy of investigation. We call this graph entropy as the second-degree-based entropy. The present work aims to investigate the role of Id,2 in structure property modeling of molecules.

The relation between entropy and disorder can be illustrated with the example of the phase change of ice to water. In ice, the molecules are located at specific sites giving a solid state, whereas, in a liquid form, these molecules are much freer to move. The molecular arrangement has therefore become more randomized. Although the change in average...
