Abstract
In mathematics‎, ‎chemistry‌‎, ‎and nanoscience a graph model is considered for each molecule‎, ‎so that the vertices are the atoms of the molecule and the edges are the bonds between the atoms‎. ‎Graph topological indices are numerical parameters dependent on the graph‎, ‎which are unique numbers and are fixed with respect to the isomorphism of the graphs‎. ‎Many topological indices in Mathematical Chemistry are in terms of degrees of vertices‎. ‎In this article‎, ‎we study the relationship between some values of these topological indices and the golden ratio.
