INTRODUCTION A molecular graph, also known as a chemical graph, is a graph in which the atoms are represented by the vertices, while the bonds are represented by the Topological indices are numeric quantities obtained from a molecular graph that correlate the molecular graphAos physico-chemical characteristics and have been shown to be beneficial in isomer discrimination. QSAR and QSPR analysis. Only simple, finite, connected graphs with V (G) as vertex set and E(G) as edge set are considered throughout this study. The degree dG . of a vertex a is the number of vertices adjacent to a. A cactus graph is a connected graph in which no edge lies in more than one Every cactus graph cycle is chordless, and every cactus graph block is either an edge or a cycle. A cactus graph is said to be triangular if all of its blocks are A triangular cactus graph is described as a chain triangular cactus if all of its triangles have at most two cut-vertices and each cut-vertice is shared by precisely two triangles. A square cactus graph is a type of cactus graph and all of its blocks are square. A square cactus graph is said to be a chain square cactus if all of its squares have at most two cut-vertices and each cut-vertice is shared by precisely two squares.
