Given a graph , if there is no nonisomorphic graph such that and have the same signless Laplacian spectra, then we say that is -DS. In this paper we show that every fan graph is -DS, where and .
In this paper, we have investigated some properties of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of a bicyclic graph with boundary condition. These results can be used to characterize the extremal bicyclic graphs with the smallest first Dirichlet eigenvalue among all the bicyclic graphs with a given graphic bicyclic degree sequence with minor conditions. Moreover, the extremal bicyclic graphs with the smallest first Dirichlet eigenvalue among all the bicycle graphs with fixed interior vertices of degree...
Let G be a graph with n vertices and ν(G) be the matching number of G. The inertia of a graph G, In(G) = (n₊,n₋,n₀) is an integer triple specifying the numbers of positive, negative and zero eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix A(G), respectively. Let η(G) = n₀ denote the nullity of G (the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero of G). It is well known that if G is a tree, then η(G) = n - 2ν(G). Guo et al. [Ji-Ming Guo, Weigen Yan and Yeong-Nan Yeh. On the nullity and the matching number of unicyclic...
The Laplacian spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of the associated Laplacian matrix. In this paper, we improve Shi's upper bound for the Laplacian spectral radius of irregular graphs and present some new bounds for the Laplacian spectral radius of some classes of graphs.
The problem of distinguishing, in terms of graph topology, digraphs with real and partially non-real Laplacian spectra is important for applications. Motivated by the question posed in [R. Agaev, P. Chebotarev, Which digraphs with rings structure are essentially cyclic?, Adv. in Appl. Math. 45 (2010), 232-251], in this paper we completely list the Laplacian eigenvalues of some digraphs obtained from the wheel digraph by deleting some arcs.
The Laplacian spread of a graph is defined as the difference between the largest and second smallest eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. In this paper, bounds are obtained for the Laplacian spread of graphs. By the Laplacian spread, several upper bounds of the Nordhaus-Gaddum type of Laplacian eigenvalues are improved. Some operations on Laplacian spread are presented. Connected -cyclic graphs with vertices and Laplacian spread are discussed.
A graph in a certain graph class is called minimizing if the least eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix attains the minimum among all graphs in that class. Bell et al. have identified a subclass within the connected graphs of order n and size m in which minimizing graphs belong (the complements of such graphs are either disconnected or contain a clique of size n/2 ). In this paper we discuss the minimizing graphs of a special class of graphs of order n whose complements are connected and contains...
Lower and upper bounds are obtained for the clique number and the independence number , in terms of the eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of a graph .
The maximum multiplicity of an eigenvalue in a matrix whose graph is a tree, M1, was understood fully (froma combinatorial perspective) by C.R. Johnson, A. Leal-Duarte (Linear Algebra and Multilinear Algebra 46 (1999) 139-144). Among the possible multiplicity lists for the eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices whose graph is a tree, we focus upon M2, the maximum value of the sum of the two largest multiplicities when the largest multiplicity is M1. Upper and lower bounds are given for M2. Using a combinatorial...
