Average Disorder Number


The average disorder number of a simple connected graph on n vertices is defined as the average length of a walk along the edges of the graph taken over all ordering of its vertices from 1 to n (Fried 2022).

The average disorder number A(G) is related to the Wiener index W(G) of a graph G with vertex count |G| by

 A(G)=(2W(G))/(|G|)

(Fried 2022).
