Abstract Let G = ( V , E ) be a simple graph of order n and size m, with vertex set V ( G ) = { v 1 , v 2 , … , v n } , without isolated vertices and sequence of vertex degrees Δ = d 1 ≥ d 2 ≥ ⋯ ≥ d n = δ > 0 , d i = d G ( v i ) . If the vertices v i and v j are adjacent, we denote it as v i v j ∈ E ( G ) or i ∼ j . With TI we denote a topological index that can be represented as T I = T I ( G ) = ∑ i ∼ j F ( d i , d j ) , where F is an appropriately chosen function with the property F ( x , y ) = F ( y , x ) . A general extended adjacency matrix A = ( a i j ) of G is defined as a i j = F ( d i , d j ) if the vertices v i and v j are adjacent, and a i j = 0 otherwise. Denote by f i , i = 1 , 2 , … , n the eigenvalues of A. The “energy” of the general extended adjacency matrix is defined as E T I = E T I ( G ) = ∑ i = 1 n | f i | . Lower and upper bounds on E T I are obtained. By means of the present approach a plethora of earlier established results can be obtained as special cases.
