摘要

Recently, discrete and variable Adriatic indices have been introduced and it has been shown that the sum alpha -exdeg index is good predictor (when variable parameter is equal to 0.37) of the octanol-water partition coefficient for octane isomers. Here, we study mathematical properties of this descriptor. Namely, we analyze extremal graphs of this descriptor in the following classes: the class of all connected graphs, the class of all trees, the class of all unicyclic graphs, the class of all chemical graphs, the class of all chemical trees, the class of all chemical unicyclic graphs, the class of all graphs with given maximal degree, the class of all graphs with given minimal degree, the class of all trees with given number of pendant vertices, and the class of all connected graphs with given number of pendant vertices. Also, many open problems about variable Adriatic indices are proposed. (doi: 10.5562/cca1667)
