abstract = {Consider a tree graph  G with edge set  E(G). The notation  dG(x) represents the degree of vertex  x in  G. Let  f be a symmetric real-valued function defined on the Cartesian square of the set of all distinct elements of the degree sequence of  G. A graphical edge-weight-function index for the graph  G, denoted by  If(G), is defined as  If(G)=∑st∈E(G)f(dG(s),dG(t)). This paper establishes the best possible bounds for  If(G) in terms of the order of  G and parameter  p, subject to specific conditions on  f. Here,  p can be one of the following three graph parameters: (ⅰ) matching number, (ⅱ) the count of pendent vertices, and (ⅲ) maximum degree. We also characterize all tree graphs that achieve these bounds. The constraints considered for  f are satisfied by several well-known indices. We specifically illustrate our findings by applying them to the recently introduced Euler-Sombor index.}
