摘要
The harmonic index H(G) of a graph G is EuvEE(G) d(u)+d(v), where d(v) is the degree of 2 v E V(G). We show that H(L(T)) > n4 for any tree T of order n > 3, which confirm the validity of a conjecture proposed by Zhang and Wu. In addition, the same lower bound holds for a unicyclic graph G of order n. Two relevant conjectures are proposed as well.(c) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
