Abstract

Given a (molecular) graph, the first multiplicative Zagreb index Π 1 is considered to be the product of squares of the degree of its vertices, while the second multiplicative Zagreb index Π 2 is expressed as the product of endvertex degree of each edge over all edges. We consider a set of graphs G n , k having n vertices and k cut edges, and explore the graphs subject to a number of cut edges. In addition, the maximum and minimum multiplicative Zagreb indices of graphs in G n , k are provided. We also provide these graphs with the largest and smallest Π 1 ( G ) and Π 2 ( G ) in G n , k .
