Extremal graphs and bounds for general Gutman index

In this paper, we solved some open problems on general Gutman index. More precisely, we characterized unicyclic graphs with extremal general Gutman index for some $ a $ and $ b $. We presented a sharp bound on general Gutman index of $ G $ in terms of order and vertex connectivity of $ G $. Also, we...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we solved some open problems on general Gutman index. More precisely, we characterized unicyclic graphs with extremal general Gutman index for some $ a $ and $ b $. We presented a sharp bound on general Gutman index of $ G $ in terms of order and vertex connectivity of $ G $. Also, we obtained some bounds on general Gutman index in terms of order, general Randić index, diameter, and independence number of graph $ G $. In addition, QSPR analysis on various anticancer drug structures was carried out to relate their physicochemical properties with the general Gutman index of the structure for some $ a $ and $ b $.
