Abstract

The total eccentricity index of a connected graph is defined as sum of the eccentricities of all its vertices. We denote the set of all connected graphs on n vertices with k pendant vertices by \mathfrakHn,k and denote the set of all connected graphs on n vertices with s cut vertices by \mathfrakCn,s. In this paper, we give the sharp lower and upper bounds on the total eccentricity index over \mathfrakHn,k and the sharp lower bound for the same over \mathfrakCn,s. We also provide the sharp upper bounds on the total eccentricity index over \mathfrakCn,s when s=0,1,n-3,n-2 and propose a problem regarding the upper bound over \mathfrakCn,s for 2≤ s≤ n-4.
