Abstract
For a connected graph of order , the harmonic index of is the sum of weights
over all edges of , where and are the degrees of the vertices and in , respectively. We prove that
and this bound is sharp for all and , where is the -chromatic number of . This generalizes the previous lower bounds on . Moreover, we also determine the tree with minimum harmonic index among trees in , where is the set of trees of order with a given segment sequence .
