Abstract

The concept of the Sombor indices of a graph was introduced by Gutman. A vertex-edge variant of the Sombor index of graphs is called the KG-Sombor index.  Recently, the Sombor and  KG-Sombor indices of Kragujevac trees were studied, and the extremal Kragujevac trees with respect to these indices were empirically  determined.   Here we give analytical proof of the results.
