Abstract

The degree distance was introduced by Dobrynin, Kochetova and
Gutman as a weighted version of the Wiener index. In this paper,
we investigate the degree distance and Gutman index of complete,
and strong product graphs by using the adjacency and
distance matrices of a graph.

Keywords

Degree distance, Adjacency matrix, Distance matrix, Complete product, Strong product
