文摘The Wiener index W(G)of a graph G is a distance-based topological index defined as the sum of distances between all pairs of vertices in G.It is shown that forλ=2 there is an infinite family of planar bipartite chemical graphs G of girth 4 with the cyclomatic numberλ,but their line graphs are not chemical graphs,and forλ≥2 there are two infinite families of planar nonbipartite graphs G of girth 3 with the cyclomatic numberλ;the three classes of graphs have the property W(G)=W(L(G)),where L(G)is the line graph of G.
