文摘The Merrifield-Simmons index of a graph is defined as the total number of the independent sets of the graph and the Ho- soya index of a graph is defined as the total number of the match- ings of the graph. In this paper, the definition of a class of po- lygonal chains is given, ordering of the polygonal chains with respect to Merrifield-Simmons index and Hosoya index are ob- tained, and their extremal graphs with respect to these two topo- logical indices are determined.
