Abstract

A topological index for a molecular graph G is a numeric quantity invariant under automorphisms of G. A dendrimer is an artificially manufactured or synthesized molecule built up from branched units called monomers. In this article an infinite class of dendrimer nanostars is investigated under three topological indices containing PI, Szeged and edge Szeged.
