The atom bond connectivity (ABC) index provides a good model for the stability of linear and branched alkanes as well as the strain energy of cycloalkanes, which is defined as ABC = uv∈E(G) du+dv −2 dudv , we denotes du the degree of vertex u in G. In this paper, we study the general formula for ABC index of certain graphs and vertex gluing of graphs.
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.
