Abstract
Research on the topological indices based on end-vertex degrees of edges has been intensively rising recently. Randić index, one of the best-known topological indices in chemical graph theory, is belonging to this class of indices. In this paper, we introduce a novel topological index based on the end-vertex degrees of edges and its basic features are presented here. We named it as geometrical-arithmetic index (GA).
