Abstract

The Wiener polarity index WP (G) of a graph G =( V, E )i s the nu mber of unordered pairs of vertices {u, v} of G such that dG(u, v )= 3. In this paper, we consider the index for connected graphs. In the first part, we describe a linear time algorithm APT for computing the index of trees, and then characterize the trees maximizing the index among all trees of given order. In the second part, we present an algorithm which computes the index WP (G) for any
