As proposed by Hosoya (1971), the Hosoya index (also called -index) of a graph is defined by
(1) |
|||
(2) |
where is the number of vertices of the graph,
is the
th coefficient of the matching polynomial,
is the
th coefficient of the matching-generating polynomial, and
is the absolute value of
. In others words, it is just the number of independent edge sets (i.e., matchings) in a graph.
An alternate definition for the Hosoya index defined by Devillers and Balaban (1999, p. 105) is given by
(3) |
where denotes the floor function. This definition is identical to
except for graphs with odd vertex count, in which case it is 0 (making it not terribly useful).
Unless otherwise stated, hydrogen atoms are usually ignored in the computation of such indices as organic chemists usually do when they write a benzene ring as a hexagon (Devillers and Balaban 1999, p. 25).
The following table summarizes values of the Hosoya index for various special classes of graphs.
