Degree-weighted Wiener index of a graph

Abstract

From geometric point of view, we introduced the Sombor-Wiener index of a graph and studied the basic properties of the new index. It was shown that the Sombor-Wiener index was useful in predicting the acentric factor of octane isomers. In addition, we proposed a degree-weighted Wiener index to generalize the Schultz index, the Gutman index, and the Sombor-Wiener index. Meanwhile, we gave the calculation formula of degree-weighted Wiener index for generalized Bethe trees.
