Abstract

A graph G consists of a set of vertices ) (G V and a set of edges ) (G E . In chemical graphs, each vertex presented an atom of the molecule and covalent bonds between atoms are represented by edges between the corresponding vertices. This shape derived from a chemical compound is often called its molecular graph, and can be a path, a tree or in general a graph. A topological index is a single number, derived following a certain rule which can be used to characterize the molecule [1]. Usage of topological indices in biology and chemistry began in 1947 when chemist Harold Wiener [2] introduced Wiener number and the name of Wiener index was given by Hosoya [3]. Szeged index was introduced by Gutman and called the Szeged index, abbreviated as Sz [4]. The Szeged index is a modification of Wiener index to cyclic molecules. This was the vertex version of Sz index which had been defined as:
