The first Zagreb index M 1 (G) is equal to the sum of squares of the degrees of the vertices, and the second Zagreb index M 2 (G) is equal to the sum of the products of the degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices of the underlying molecular graph G. In this paper, we obtain lower and upper bounds on the first Zagreb index M 1 (G) of G in terms of the number of vertices (n), number of edges (m), maximum vertex degree (Δ), and minimum vertex degree (δ). Using this result, we find lower and upper bounds on M 2 (G). Also, we present lower and upper bounds on M 2 (G) + M 2 (G) in terms of n, m, Δ, and δ, where G denotes the complement of G. Moreover, we determine the bounds on first Zagreb coindex M 1 (G) and second Zagreb coindex M 2 (G). Finally, we give a relation between the first Zagreb index and the second Zagreb index of graph G.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
