Abstract

Several properties of chemical compounds in a molecular structure can be determined with the aid of mathematical languages provided by various types of topological indices. In this paper, we consider eight dendrimer structures in the context of valency based topological indices. We define four Banhatti polynomials for general (molecular) graphs, and compute them for underline dendrimers. We use these polynomials to determine four Banhatti indices. We also determine Zagreb (first, second and hyper) and forgotten indices by developing their relationships with Banhatti indices.

Introduction

The structural formula of molecules and molecular compounds is represented as a molecular graph 𝓜 in chemical graph theory, where nodes (vertices) are atoms and links (edges) between atoms are atom-bonds. We denote the collection of all the atoms in 𝓜 by A(𝓜) and the collection of all the atom-bonds in 𝓜 by B(𝓜). The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜 is called the size of 𝓜, and we denote it by S(𝓜). An atom-bond ϵ = ab between two atoms a and b of 𝓜 is said to be incident with both the atoms and vice-versa, and this incidency is written as (or ). The valency (degree) of an atom a in 𝓜 is the number of atom-bonds incident with a, and we symbolize it as νa. The valency of an atom-bond ϵ = abB(𝓜) can be computed by the formula νϵ = νa +νb −2. Throughout this paper, the notation αβ will represent the type of an atom-bond whose incident atoms have valencies α and β, and therefore the valency of that atom-bond should be α + β − 2 accordingly. Whenever the size, S(𝓜), of a molecular graph 𝓜 is to be found, we use the following formula provided by the well known hand shake lemma. [10]

(1)aA(M)va=2S(M).

Combinatorics and chemical graph theory play a significant role to study and characterize molecular structures, spectroscopy, and quantum chemistry [4, 7]. In a newly developed field, called cheminformatics (a combination of chemistry, information and mathematics), qualitative structure activity/property relationships (QSAR) together with topological indices play a vital role for studying molecular compounds with chemical properties of their bioactivities. For such kind of studies, mathematicians and chemists are using several types of topological indices defined on the base of valency of atoms/atom-bonds, and defined on the base of distance (the number of atom-bonds lying in a shortest path) between atoms of a molecular graph. A numerical quantity which captures the symmetry of a molecular structure is known as a topological index. In fact, a topological index is a numerical characterization of a chemical graph and provides a mathematical function of the structure in QSAR studies. There are several valency based topological indices introduced to test the properties of compounds and drugs; such as viscosity, the gyrational radius, boiling point and many more [27]. In this paper, our aim is to study some valency based topological indices with the correlation of Banhatti indices. The valency based topological indices, which we consider, are defined as follows: In 1972, Gutman and Trinajsti [14] defined first and second Zagreb indices by the following formulae:

(2)Z1(M)=abB(M)(va+vb)andZ2(M)=abB(M)(va×vb).

Another novel form of Zagreb indices, called the hyper Zagreb index, were defined by Shirdel et al. [25] as follows:

(3)HZ(M)=abB(M)(va+vb)2.

A few years ago, in 2015, another important valency based topological index, called the forgotten index, was introduced and studied by Furtula and Gutman [12]. It can be computed by the formula

(4)F(M)=abB(M)(va2+vb2).

In 2016, the computation of valency based topological indices with the aid of valency of atom-bonds (edges) was initiated by Kulli [17]. He introduced four Banhatti indices, which are defined as follows:

  • First and second K Banhatti indices, respectively, are:

(5)B1(M)=aϵ(va+vϵ)andB2(M)=aϵ(va×vϵ).
  • First and second K hyper Banhatti indices, respectively, are:

(6)HB1(M)=aϵ(va+vϵ)2andHB2(M)=aϵ(va×vϵ)2.

An extension in the theory of Banhatti indices was initiated when, in the same year 2016, Kulli defined and determined multiplicative K Banhatti indices [20]. Further extension to this theory was made in 2017 when Kulli et al. defined and computed connectivity K Banhatti indices including K harmonic Banhatti and multiplicative K harmonic Banhatti indices [16]. For more detail and theory about Banhatti indices, we refer the articles in [2, 5, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 24].

A huge amount of valency based topological indices and polynomials, defined and studied by various researchers, can be found in the literature (see [1, 3, 6, 8, 13, 21, 22, 26] and the references therein). In this paper, our first aim is to further extend the theory of Banhatti indices by defining four Banhatti polynomials. Moreover, we establish a few relationships of Banhatti indices, defined in (5) and (6), with the indices provided in (2), (3) and (4). Our second aim is to compute those valency based topological indices which can be determined by using the established relationships. Accordingly, we determine four Banhatti indices together with Zagreb (first, second and hyper) and forgotten indices for a few dendrimer structures with their exact values.

Banhatti polynomials and some relationships

Similar to other topological polynomials such as M-polynomial, Zagreb polynomials, forgotten polynomial, Hosoya polynomials and many more, we define K Banhatti polynomials as follows:

  • First and second K Banhatti polynomials with variable x, respectively, are:

(7)B1(M,x)=aϵx(va+vϵ)andB2(M,x)=aϵx(va×vϵ).
  • First and second K hyper Banhatti polynomials with variable x, respectively, are:

(8)HB1(M,x)=aϵxva+vϵ2 and HB2(M,x)=aϵxva×vϵ2.

Clearly, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the corresponding Banhatti indices. Now, for a molecular graph 𝓜, the relationships of Banhatti indices with Zagreb and forgotten indices are established as follows:

(9)3Z1(M)=B1(M)+4S(M)

According to the formula of the first K Banhatti index from (5), we have

B1M=ϵ=abBMva+vϵ+vb+vϵ=abBMva+vb+2va+vb2=abBM3va+vb4=3Z1M4SM by using (2)

Hence, we get the required relation.

(10)FM=B2M+2Z1MZ2M

According to the formula of second K Banhatti index from (5), we have

(11)B2(M)=ϵ=abB(M)[(va×vϵ)+(va×vϵ)]=abB(M)[va×(va+vb2)+vb×(va+vb2)]B2(M)=abB(M)[va2+vb2+2(va×vb)2(va+vb)]
(12)B2(M)=F(M)+2Z2(M)2Z1(M) by using (2)&(4)

Hence, we get the required relation.

(13)HZM=B2M+2Z1M

From Equation (11), we have

B2M=abBMva+vb22va+vb=HZM2Z1Mbyusing(2)&(3)

Hence, we get the required relation.

(14)2(Z1(M)+Z2(M))=5B2(M)HB1(M)+8S(M)

According to the formula of the first K hyper Banhatti index from (6), we have

HB1(M)=ϵ=abB(M)[(va+vϵ)2+(vb+vϵ)2]=abB(M)[(va+(va+vb2))2+(vb+(va+vb2))2]=abB(M)[va2+vb2+8(va×vb)12(va+vb)+8]
(15)HB1M=5FM+8Z2M12Z1M+8SMbyusing2&4

By performing the operation “Equation (15)−5×Equation (12)”, we get the required relation.

Dendrimers

Dendrimers are molecular structures which are built symmetrically by attaching to a central core the layers of macromolecules branches with successive increments. In 1978, Buhleier at al. constructed the first dendrimers structure using the approach of synthesis divergence [9]. It has been found in the literature that dendrimers play a significant role in the fields of chemistry, biology and nanosciences [11]. Due to wide range of expediency, dendrimers attracted many researchers to investigate remarkable foundations upon them. In the context of topological indices, researchers dealt with dendrimers in the following ways (listed few): Szeged topological indices were determined by Ashrafi et al. [6]; atom-bond connectivity index was computed by Alikhani et al. [1]; M-polynomial and related indices were investigated by Munir et al. [23]; computation of forgotten polynomial and index was due to the work done by Bashir et al. [8]; and some novel valency based indices were computed by Kang et al. [15]. Attracted by these remarkable works done for dendrimers, we consider eight dendrimers, from a huge family of various types of dendrimers, in the context of valency based topological polynomials and indices defined in sections 1 and 2. The intention to consider only these eight dendrimers is their structural symmetry and simplicity. Moreover, generations growth in these dendrimers is easily understandable to partition the atom-bonds into different parts according to their valency types, which is a necessary part to compute the underline topological indices.

Poly(propyl) ether imine dendrimer

Our first molecular graph 𝓜1 is the poly (propyl) ether imine (PETIM) dendrimer of generation Gη with η ≥ 1 growth stage. 𝓜1 consists of 4 branches and one central core. The central core contains 7 atoms of valency 2, 2 atoms of valency 3 and 8 atom-bonds as shown in Figure 1. In one branch of 𝓜1, there are 8+2·8+22·8+. . .+2η−2·8+ 2η−1·4 = 12·2η−1−8 atoms, among them 2η−1 atoms are of valency 1; 20+21+22+. . .+2η−1+2η = 2·2η−1 atoms are of valency 3; and the remaining 12·2η−1−8−2η−1−2η−1+1 = 7 · 2η−1 − 7 atoms are of valency 2. Therefore, in 𝓜1, there are total 24 · 2η − 23 atoms; among them 2 · 2η atoms are of valency 1; 20 · 2η − 21 atoms are of valency 2; and 2·2η−2 atoms are of valency 3. The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜1 is 24 · 2η − 24, by formula (1). According to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are three types 1 ∼ 2, 2 ∼ 2 and 2 ∼ 3 of atom-bonds in 𝓜1. Equivalently, the atom-bonds set of 𝓜1 is partitioned as B(𝓜1) = B1∼2B2∼2B2∼3, where

B1∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜1) | νa = 1, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 1} with

|B1∼2| = 2 · 2η,

B2∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜1) | νa = 2, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B2∼2| = 16 · 2η − 18,

B2∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜1) | νa = 2, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B2∼3| = 6 · 2η − 6.

Using this partition in the formula of the first K Banhatti polynomial from (7), we have:

B1(M1,x)=(ϵ=abB1~2+ϵ=abB2~2+ϵ=abB2~3)x(va+vϵ)=22ηx5+(162η18)x8+(62η6)x11.

Analogously, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the other three Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

B2(M1,x)=22ηx3+(162η18)x8+(62η6)x15,HB1(M1,x)=22ηx13+(162η18)x32+(62η6)x61,HB2(M1,x)=22ηx5+(162η18)x32+(62η6)x117.

With respect to x, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the following K Banhatti indices of 𝓜1.

TIM1=2042η210,whenTIisB1,2242η234,whenTIisB2,9042η942,whenTIisHB1,12242η1278,whenTIisHB2.

Using relationships (9), (10), (13) and (14), we get the following Zagreb and forgotten indices of 𝓜1.

TI(M1)={1002η102,whenTIisZ1,1042η108,whenTIisZ2,4242η438,whenTIisHZ,2162η222,whenTIisF.

The value for the forgotten index F is similar with its value found by Bashir et al. in [8].

Poly ethylene amido amine dendrimer

Our second molecular graph 𝓜2 is the poly ethylene amido amine (PETAA) dendrimer of generation Gη with η ≥ 1 growth stage. 𝓜2 consists of 4 branches and one central core. The central core contains 2 atoms of valency 1, 8 atoms of valency 2, 4 atoms of valency 3, and 13 atom-bonds as depicted in Figure 2. In one branch of 𝓜2, there are 8+2·8+22 ·8+. . .+2η−1 ·8+2η ·3 = 11·2η −8 atoms, among them 20 + 21 + 22 + . . . + 2η−1 + 2η = 2 · 2η − 1 are leaves (atoms with valency 1); 5+2·5+22·5+. . .+2η−1·5+ 2η+1 = 7·2η − 5 atoms are of valency 2; and the remaining 11 · 2η − 8 − 2 · 2η + 1 − 7 · 2m + 5 = 2 · 2η − 2 atoms are of valency 3. Thus 𝓜2 has total 44 · 2η − 18 atoms, among them 8 · 2η − 2 atoms are of valency 1; 28 · 2η − 12 atoms are of valency 2; and 8 · 2η − 4 atoms are of valency 3.

The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜2 is 44 · 2η − 19, by formula (1).With respect to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are four types 1 ∼ 2, 1 ∼ 3, 2 ∼ 2 and 2 ∼ 3 of atom-bonds in 𝓜2. Equivalently, the atom-bonds set of 𝓜2 is partitioned as B(𝓜2) = B1∼2B1∼3B2∼2B2∼3, where

B1∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜2) | νa = 1, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 1} with

|B1∼2| = 4 · 2η,

B1∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜2) | νa = 1, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B1∼3| = 4 · 2η − 2,

B2∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜2) | νa = 2, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B2∼2| = 16 · 2η − 7,

B2∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜2) | νa = 2, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B2∼3| = 20 · 2η − 10.

Using this partition in the formula of the first K Banhatti polynomial from (7), we have:

B1(M2,x)=(ϵ=abB1~2+ϵ=abB1~3+ϵ=abB2~2+ϵ=abB2~3)x(va+vϵ)=42ηx5+(202η9)x8+(202η10)x11.

Equivalently, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the other three Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

B2M2,x=42ηx3+202η9x8+202η10x15,HB1M2,x=42ηx13+42η2x34+162η7x32+202η10x61,HB2M2,x=42ηx5+42η2x40+162η7x32+202η10x117.

With respect to x, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the following K Banhatti indices of 𝓜2.

TI(M2)={4002η182,whenTIisB1,4722η222,whenTIisB2,19202η902,whenTIisHB1,30322η1474,whenTIisHB2.

Using relationships (9), (10), (13) and (14), we have the following Zagreb and forgotten indices of 𝓜2.

TI(M2)={1922η86,whenTIisZ1,2042η94,whenTIisZ2,8562η394,whenTIisHZ,4482η206,whenTIisF.

Porphyrin dendrimer

Our third molecular graph 𝓜3 is the porphyrin dendrimer (DκPκ) of generation Gκ with κ = 2η growth stage for η ≥ 2. The structure of 𝓜3 consists of 4 branches and one central core. The central core contains 4 atoms of valency 2, 2 atoms of valency 3, and 5 atom-bonds as shown in Figure 3. In one branch of 𝓜3, there are 4 + 2 · 4 + 22 · 4 + . . . + 2η−3 · 4 + 2η−2 · 92 = 96 · 2η−2 − 4 atoms, among them 26 · 2η−2 atoms are of valency 1; 3 + 2 · 3 + 22 · 3 + . . . + 2η−3 · 3 + 2η−2 · 31 = 34 · 2η−2 − 3 atoms are of valency 2; 8 · 2η−2 atoms are of valency 4; and the remaining 96·2η−2−4−26·2η−2−34·2η−2 +3−8·2η−2 = 28·2η−2−1 atoms are of valency 3. So 𝓜3 keeps total 96·2η−10 atoms, among them 26·2η atoms are of valency 1; 34·2η−8 atoms are of valency 2; 28·2η −2 atoms are of valency 3; and the remaining 8 · 2η atoms are of valency 4.

The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜3 is 105 · 2η − 11, by formula (1). According to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are six types 1 ∼ 3, 1 ∼ 4, 2 ∼ 2, 2 ∼ 3, 3 ∼ 3, and 3 ∼ 4 of atom-bonds in 𝓜3. Equivalently, the partition of atom-bonds set of 𝓜3 is B(𝓜3) = B1∼3B1∼4B2∼2B2∼3B3∼3B3∼4, where

B1∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 1, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B1∼3| = 2 · 2η,

B1∼4 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 1, νb = 4 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B1∼4| = 24 · 2η,

B2∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 2, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B2∼2| = 10 · 2η − 5,

B2∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 2, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B2∼3| = 48 · 2η − 6,

B3∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 3, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 4} with

|B3∼3| = 13 · 2η,

B3∼4 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜3) | νa = 3, νb = 4 ∧ νϵ = 5} with

|B3∼4| = 8 · 2η.

Using this partition in the formula of the first K Banhatti polynomial from (7), we have:

B1(M3,x)=(ϵ=abB1~3+ϵ=abB1~4+ϵ=abB2~2+ϵ=abB2~3+ϵ=abB3~3+ϵ=abB3~4)x(va+vϵ)
=(122η5)x8+(722η6)x11+132ηx14+82ηx17.

Similarly, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the other three Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

B2M3,x=122η5x8+722η6x15+132ηx24+82ηx35,HB1M3,x=102η5x32+22ηx34+482η6x61+82ηx65+132ηx98+82ηx145,HB2M3,x=102η5x32+2.2ηx40+482n6x117+242ηx153+132ηx288+82ηx625.

With respect to x, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the following K Banhatti indices of 𝓜3.

TI(M3)={12062η106,whenTIisB1,17682η130,whenTIisB2,74702η526,whenTIisHB1,192182η862,whenTIisHB2.

Using relationships (9), (10), (13) and (14), Zagreb and forgotten indices of 𝓜3 are:

TI(M3)={5422η50,whenTIisZ1,6432η56,whenTIisZ2,28522η230,whenTIisHZ,15662η118,whenTIisF.

The value for the forgotten index is similar with its value determined by Bashir et al. in [8].

Zinc porphyrin dendrimer

Our fourth molecular graph 𝓜4 is the zinc porphyrin dendrimer (DPZm) of generation Gη with η ≥ 1 growth stage. 𝓜4 consists of 4 branches and one central core. The central core contains 24 atoms of valencies 2 and 3, 1 atom of valency 4, and 60 atom-bonds as displayed in Figure 4. In one branch of 𝓜4, we have 14 + 2 · 14 + 22 · 14 + . . . + 2η−1 · 14 = 14(2η − 1) atoms, among them 9 + 2 · 9 + 22 · 9 + . . . + 2η−1 · 9 + 2η−1 · 11 = 20 · 2η−1 − 9 atoms are of valency 2, and the remaining 14(2η − 1) − 20 · 2η−1 + 9 = 4 · 2η − 5 atoms are of valency 3. Therefore, there are total 56 · 2η − 7 atoms in 𝓜4, among them 40 · 2η − 12 atoms are of valency 2, 16 · 2η + 4 atoms are of valency 3, and one atom is of valency 4. The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜4 is 64 · 2η − 4, by formula (1). According to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are four types 2 ∼ 2, 2 ∼ 3, 3 ∼ 3, and 3 ∼ 4 of atom-bonds in 𝓜4. Accordingly, the atom-bonds set of 𝓜4 is partitioned as B(𝓜4) = B2∼2B2∼3B3∼3B3∼4, where

B2∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜4) | νa = 2, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B2∼2| = 16 · 2η − 4,

B2∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜4) | νa = 2, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B2∼3| = 40 · 2η − 16,

B3∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜4) | νa = 3, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 4} with

|B3∼3| = 8 · 2η + 12,

B3∼4 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜4) | νa = 3, νb = 4 ∧ νϵ = 5} with

|B3∼4| = 4.

Using this partition in the formula of the first K Banhatti polynomial from (7), we have:

B1M4,x=ϵ=abB2~2+ϵ=abB2~3+ϵ=abB3~3+ϵ=abB3~4xva+vϵ=162η4x8+402η16x11+82η+12x12+4x17.

On the same way, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the other Banhatti polynomials align (7) and (8), it can be found that

B2M4,x=162η4x8+402η16x15+82η+12x18+4x35,HB1M4,x=162η4x32+402η16x61+82η+12x72+4x145,
HB2M4,x=162η4x32+402η16x117+82η+12x162+4x625.

With respect to x, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the following K Banhatti indices of 𝓜4.

Porphyrin cored dendrimers

Porphyrin cored dendrimers are of four types. Accordingly, we consider four subsections.

Porphyrin cored dendrimers-I

Fifth molecular graph 𝓜51 considered in this paper is the porphyrin cored dendrimer-I (PCD-I) of generation Gη with η ≥ 1 growth stage. 𝓜51 consists of two similar branches and one central core. The central core contains 10 atoms of valency 2, 14 atoms of valency 3, 1 atom of valency 4, and 34 atom-bonds as shown in Figure 5. In one branch of 𝓜51, there are 20+21+22+. . .+2η = 2η+1−1 atoms, among them 2η atoms are of valency 1, and 20+21+22+. . .+2η−1 = 2η−1 atoms are of valency 3. Therefore, in 𝓜51, there are total 4·2η +23 atoms, among them 2·2η atoms are of valency 1, 2×2η + 12 atoms are of valency 3, 10 atoms are of valency 2, and one atom is of valency 4.

Porphyrin cored dendrimer-I

The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜51 is 4 · 2η + 30, by formula (1). According to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are five types 1 ∼ 3, 2 ∼ 2, 2 ∼ 3, 3 ∼ 3, and 3 ∼ 4 of atom-bonds in 𝓜51. Equivalently, the atom-bonds set of 𝓜51 is partitioned as B(𝓜51) = B1∼3B2∼2B2∼3B3∼3B3∼4, where

B1∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜51) | νa = 1, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B1∼3| = 2 · 2η,

B2∼2 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜51) | νa = 2, νb = 2 ∧ νϵ = 2} with

|B2∼2| = 4,

B2∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜51) | νa = 2, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 3} with

|B2∼3| = 12,

B3∼3 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜51) | νa = 3, νb = 3 ∧ νϵ = 4} with

|B3∼3| = 2 · 2η + 10,

B3∼4 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜51) | νa = 3, νb = 4 ∧ νϵ = 5} with

|B3∼4| = 4.

Using this partition in the formula of the first K Banhatti polynomial from (7), we have:

B1M51,x=ϵ=abB1~3+ϵ=abB2~2+ϵ=abB2~3+ϵ=abB3~3+ϵ=abB3~4xva+vϵ=22η+4x8+12x11+22η+10x14+4x17.

Analogously, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the other three Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

B2M51,x=22ηx8+4x8+12x15+22η+10x24+4x35,HB1M51,x=22ηx34+8x16+12x61+22η+10x98+4x145,HB2M51,x=22ηx40+8x16+12x117
+(22η+10)x288+4x625.

With respect to x, by taking the first derivative of these polynomials at x = 1, we get the following K Banhatti indices of 𝓜51.

TI(M51)={442η+372,whenTIisB1,642η+430,whenTIisB2,2642η+2420,whenTIisHB1,6562η+6912,whenTIisHB2.

Porphyrin cored dendrimer-II

Our sixth molecular graph 𝓜52 is the porphyrin cored dendrimer-II (PCD-II) of generation Gη with η ≥ 1 growth stage.M52 consists of four similar branches and one central core. The central core contains 8 atoms of valency 2, 16 atoms of valency 3, 1 atom of valency 4, and 36 atom-bonds as shown in Figure 6. In one branch of 𝓜52, there are 20 +21 +22 + . . .+2η = 2η+1 −1 atoms, among them 2η atoms are of valency 1, and 20+21+22 +. . .+2η−1 = 2η −1 atoms are of valency 3. Therefore, in 𝓜52, there are total 8 · 2η + 21 atoms, among them 4 · 2η atoms are of valency 1, 4×2η +12 atoms are of valency 3, 8 atoms are of valency 2, and one atom is of valency 4.

The number of atom-bonds in 𝓜52 is 8 · 2η + 28, by formula (1). According to the valencies of atoms incident with each atom-bond, there are five types 1 ∼ 3, 2 ∼ 2, 2 ∼ 3, 3 ∼ 3, and 3 ∼ 4 of atom-bonds in 𝓜52. Equivalently, the atom-bonds set of 𝓜52 is partitioned as B(𝓜52) = B1∼3B2∼2B2∼3B3∼3B3∼4, where

B3∼4 = {ϵ = abB(𝓜52) | νa = 3, νb = 4 ∧ νϵ = 5} with

|B3∼4| = 4.

Analogously as in the case of porphyrin cored dendrimer-I, 𝓜51, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the

Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

B1M52,x=42η+4x8+8x11+42η+12x14+4x17B2M52,x=42ηx8+4x8+8x15+42η+12x24+4x35,HB1M52,x=42ηx34+8x16+8x61+42η+12x98+4x145,HB2M52,x=42ηx40+8x16+8x117+42η+12x288+4x625.

Therefore, in 𝓜53, there are total 16·2η +17 atoms, among them 8·2η atoms are of valency 1, 8×2η +12 atoms are of valency 3, 4 atoms are of valency 2, and one atom is of valency 4.

Analogously as in the case of porphyrin cored dendrimer-I, 𝓜51, using the atom-bonds partition in formulae of the Banhatti polynomials from (7) and (8), it can be found that

In one branch of 𝓜54, there are 20+21+22+. . .+ 2η = 2η+1 − 1 atoms, among them 2η atoms are of valency 1, and 20+21+22+. . .+2η−1 = 2η−1 atoms are of valency 3. Therefore, in 𝓜54, there are total 24·2η+13 atoms, among them 12 · 2η atoms are of valency 1, 12 × 2η + 12 atoms are of valency 3, and one atom is of valency 4.

Geometric comparison and conclusion

Topological indices are tools which are extensively useful for chemical analysis of molecular compounds. The results due to topological indices have remarkable significance in chemistry, engineering, bioscience and nanoscience applications. We considered numerous imperative molecular structures and computed their valency based topological indices by defining and computing four Banhatti polynomials. The obtained results are useful in forecasting several molecular properties of chemical compounds such as π−electron energy, medical configuration, boiling point and many more.

Using the technique of atom-bonds set partition of dendrimers in accordance with valencies and Banhatti polynomials, we investigated exact values for the first and second K Banhatti, K hyper Banhatti and Zagreb indices together with hyper Zagreb and forgotten indices. We separately plot values of each topological index obtained for eight dendrimers in Figure 916 to compare them geometrically. In each of these plots,

  1. thin solid curve is for poly (propyle) ethre imine (PETIM) dendrimer,

  2. short dotted curve is for poly ethylene amido amine (PETAA) dendrimer,

  3. short dashed curve is for porphyrin dendrimer (DκPκ),

  4. dash dotted curve is for zinc porphyrin dendrimer (DPZη),

  5. long dashed curve is for porphyrin cored dendrimer-I (PCD-I),

  6. space dashed curve is for porphyrin cored dendrimer-II (PCD-II),

  7. space dotted curve is for porphyrin cored dendrimer-III (PCD-III),

  8. thick solid curve is for porphyrin cored dendrimer-IV (PCD-IV).

Each plot depicts that the behavior of indices for every dendrimer is same for η < 10. When η is increasing, then DκPκ has greatest value of each index, whereas PCD-I has least value of each index. The dendrimer DPZη has second greatest value of each index except of hyper Zagreb index, and for this index it preserves third least value as shown in the plot of Figure 15. It can also be observed that some of the dendrimers have almost coinciding and very nearest values of several indices, for instance:

  • Plots in Figures 10, 11 and 14 show that PETIMand PCD-III have very nearest values of second K Banhatti, first K hyper Banhatti and second Zagreb indices;

  • The plot in Figure 12 depicts that PETAA and PCD-III have very closest values of second K hyper Banhatti index, while this index receives almost coinciding values for PETIM and PCD-II;

  • The plot in Figure 13 provides that the first Zagreb index behaved same for PETIM and PCD-I till η < 15, and onward it gained very nearest values;

  • Plots in Figures 15 and 16 show that the values of both the hyper Zagreb and forgotten indices coincide for PETIM and PCD-III.
