Abstract

Hypergraph theory has been found many applications in chemistry. As an important descriptor of molecular structures, the Wiener index of a graph also has many applications. The Wiener index of a connected hypergraph is defined as the summation of distances between all pairs of vertices. If each edge contains exactly k vertices, then a hypergraph G is called k-uniform. A hypertree is a connected hypergraph with no cycles. For k-uniform hypertree, H. Guo, B. Zhou et al. have determined the first, second and third maximum and minimum Wiener indices of uniform hypertrees. And give the unique structure of the k-uniform hypertree corresponding to the Wiener index, Moreover, in this paper, We first find out the relationship between the first few Wiener indices, then according to the structure of the graph, determine the unique k-uniform hypertree with the fifth maximum Wiener index. Through the determination of the fifth Wienr index k-uniform hypertree, the structure of the NTH Wiener index k-uniform hypertree can be found.
