On the Hyper Zagreb Index of Trees with a Specified Degree of Vertices

Topological indices are the numerical descriptors that correspond to some certain physicochemical properties of a chemical compound such as the boiling point, acentric factor, enthalpy of vaporisation, heat of fusion, etc. Among these topological indices, the Hyper Zagreb index, is the most effectively used topological index to predict the acentric factor of some octane isomers. In the current work, we investigate the extremal values of the Hyper Zagreb index for some classes of trees.
