Abstract
There are several papers that determine one or a few chosen degree-based topological indices for hexagonal nanotubes. We present formulas, which can be used to compute any degree-based topological index for those nanotubes. Then we give exact values of the best-known degree-based indices for hexagonal nanotubes.
