Abstract:
By using the partition function of a graph new topological
indices, the bond index, B, and the connective index, C, are
defined for analyzing the statisco-mechanical aspect of the
Hosoya index, Z (here denoted by H). By comparing these
three indices, B, C, and H for small graphs representing the
carbon atom skeletons of hydrocarbon molecules, the physical
meaning of H was found to be clarified by C.
