COMMENTS
|
The first Zagreb index of a simple connected graph is the sum of the squared degrees of its vertices. Alternately, it is the sum of the degree sums d(i)+ d(j) over all edges ij of the graph.
The M-polynomial of the Aztec diamond AZ(n) is M(AZ(n);x,y) = 8*x^2*y^3 + 8*(n-1)*x^2*y^4 + 4*x^3*y^4 + 4*(n^2 - 1)*x^4*y^4. - Emeric Deutsch, May 10 2018

FORMULA
|
a(n) = 32*n^2 + 48*n - 12.
G.f.: 4*x*(17+2*x-3*x^2)/(1-x)^3. - Vincenzo Librandi, Sep 24 2017
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(1) = 68; indeed, the Aztec diamond AZ(1) has 4 vertices of degree 2, 4 vertices of degree 3, and 1 vertex of degree 4 (see p. 1409 of the Imran et al. reference); consequently, a(1) = 4*2^2 + 4*3^2 + 1*4^2 = 16 + 36 + 16 = 68.
