On Connectivity Indices of an Infinite Family of Popam Dendrimers
The m-order connectivity index
m
χ(G) of a graph G is

im+1, where d
i1
d
i2 ,..., d
im+1 runs over all paths of length m in G and d
i denotes the degree of vertex v
i. Also ms

+1 is its m-sum connectivity index. A dendrimer is an artificially
manufactured or synthesized molecule built up from branched units called monomers. In this paper, the 2-, 3- and 4-order connectivity indices of an infinite family of popam dendrimer are computed.
