Topological indices are graph invariants computed by the distance or degree of vertices of the molecular graph. In chemical graph theory, topological indices have been successfully used in describing the structures and predicting certain physicochemical properties of chemical compounds. In this paper, we propose a definition of generalized bridge molecular graphs that can model more kinds of long chain polymerization products than the bridge molecular graphs, and provide some results of the edge versions of atom-bond connectivity ( A B C e ) and geometric arithmetic ( G A e ) indices for some generalized bridge molecular graphs, which have regular, periodic and symmetrical structures. The results of this paper offer promising prospects in the applications for chemical and material engineering, especially in chemical industry research.
