Abstract

The first and second Zagreb eccentricity indices of graph G are defined as: E1(G)=∑vi∈V(G)εG(vi)2, E2(G)=∑vivj∈E(G)εG(vi)εG(vj) where εGi) denotes the eccentricity of vertex υi in G. The eccentric complexity Cec(G) of G is the number of different eccentricities of vertices in G. In this paper we present some results on the comparison between E1(G)n and E2(G)m for any connected graphs G of order n with m edges, including general graphs and the graphs with given Cec. Moreover, a Nordhaus-Gaddum type result Cec(G) + Cec(Ḡ) is determined with extremal graphs at which the upper and lower bounds are attained respectively.
