Minimal Harary index of unicyclic graphs with diameter at most 4. (English) Zbl 1508.05031

Summary: The Harary index of a graph \(G\) is defined as \(H (G) = \sum_{\{ u,v \} \subseteq V (G)} \frac{1}{ d_G (u,v)} \), where \(d_G(u,v)\) is the distance between the vertices \(u\) and \(v\). In this paper, we respectively determine the minimal Harary index among all unicyclic graphs with diameter 3 and all unicyclic graphs with diameter 4.
