文摘The first Zagreb index M1 （G） is equal to the sum of squares of the degrees of the vertices, and the second Zagreb index M2 （G） is equal to the sum of the products of the degrees of pairs of adjacent vertices of the underlying molecular graph G. In this paper, we obtain lower and upper bounds on the first Zagreb index MI（G） of G in terms of the number of vertices （n）, number of edges （m）, maximum vertex degree （△）, and minimum vertex degree （δ）. Using this result, we find lower and upper bounds on M2（G）. Also, we present lower and upper bounds on M2（G） ＋ M2（G） in terms of n, m, △, and δ, where denotes the complement of G. Moreover, we determine the bounds on first Zagreb coindex MI（G） and second Zagreb coindex M2（G）. Finally, we give a relation between the first Zagreb index and the second Zagreb index of graph G.
