Disjoint unions of complete graphs characterized by their Laplacian spectrum

Ela Disjoint Unions of Complete Graphs Characterized by Their Laplacian Spectrum∗

A disjoint union of complete graphs is in general not determined by its Laplacian spectrum. It is shown in this paper that if one only considers the family of graphs without isolated vertex, then a disjoint union of complete graphs is determined by its Laplacian spectrum within this family. Moreover, it is shown that the disjoint union of two complete graphs with a and b vertices, a b > 5 3 and...

A class of unicyclic graphs determined by their Laplacian spectrum

Let Gr,p be a graph obtained from a path by adjoining a cycle Cr of length r to one end and the central vertex of a star Sp on p vertices to the other end. In this paper, it is proven that unicyclic graph Gr,p with r even is determined by its Laplacian spectrum except for n = p+4.

Normalized laplacian spectrum of two new types of join graphs

‎Let $G$ be a graph without an isolated vertex‎, ‎the normalized Laplacian matrix $tilde{mathcal{L}}(G)$‎ ‎is defined as $tilde{mathcal{L}}(G)=mathcal{D}^{-frac{1}{2}}mathcal{L}(G)mathcal{D}^{-frac{1}{2}}$‎, where ‎$mathcal{D}$ ‎is a‎ diagonal matrix whose entries are degree of ‎vertices ‎‎of ‎$‎G‎$‎‎. ‎The eigenvalues of‎ $tilde{mathcal{L}}(G)$ are ‎called as ‎the ‎normalized Laplacian eigenva...

The Laplacian Spectrum of Graphs †

The paper is essentially a survey of known results about the spectrum of the Laplacian matrix of graphs with special emphasis on the second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue λ2 and its relation to numerous graph invariants, including connectivity, expanding properties, isoperimetric number, maximum cut, independence number, genus, diameter, mean distance, and bandwidth-type parameters of a graph. S...
