Abstract
The topological Zagreb index M1 introduces an ordering on the set of alkanes. Recently, modified Zagreb indices λM1 have been proposed, and it is noted that they differently order alkanes. In this paper, the level of consistency between these orders is analyzed. A new partial order >- as the intersection of all partial orders λM1 (where m is at least 2) is introduced and its properties are analyzed.
