Characterizations of the family of all generalized line graphs-finite and infinite- and classification of the family of all graphs whose least eigenvalues ≥ -2

چکیده
The infimum of the least eigenvalues of all finite induced subgraphs of an infinite graph is defined to be its least eigenvalue. In [P.J. Cameron, J.M. Goethals, J.J. Seidel and E.E. Shult, Line graphs, root systems, and elliptic geometry, J. Algebra 43 (1976) 305–327], the class of all finite graphs whose least eigenvalues > −2 has been classified: (1) If a (finite) graph is connected and its least eigenvalue is at least −2, then either it is a generalized line graph or it is represented by the root system E8. In [A. Torgas̆ev, A note on infinite generalized line graphs, in: Proceedings of the Fourth Yugoslav Seminar on Graph Theory, Novi Sad, 1983 (Univ. Novi Sad, 1984) 291– 297], it has been found that (2) any countably infinite connected graph with least eigenvalue > −2 is a generalized line graph. In this article, the family of all generalized line graphs—countable and uncountable—is described algebraically and characterized structurally and an extension of (1) which subsumes (2) is derived.

The spectrum of the hyper-star graphs and their line graphs
Let n 1 be an integer. The hypercube Qn is the graph whose vertex set isf0;1gn, where two n-tuples are adjacent if they differ in precisely one coordinate. This graph has many applications in Computer sciences and other area of sciences. Inthe graph Qn, the layer Lk is the set of vertices with exactly k 1’s, namely, vertices ofweight k, 1 k n. The hyper-star graph B(n;k) is...
متن کاملEnergy of Graphs, Matroids and Fibonacci Numbers
The energy E(G) of a graph G is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of G. In this article we consider the problem whether generalized Fibonacci constants $varphi_n$ $(ngeq 2)$ can be the energy of graphs. We show that $varphi_n$ cannot be the energy of graphs. Also we prove that all natural powers of $varphi_{2n}$ cannot be the energy of a matroid.
متن کاملOn the eigenvalues of Cayley graphs on generalized dihedral groups
Let $Gamma$ be a graph with adjacency eigenvalues $lambda_1leqlambda_2leqldotsleqlambda_n$. Then the energy of $Gamma$, a concept defined in 1978 by Gutman, is defined as $mathcal{E}(G)=sum_{i=1}^n|lambda_i|$. Also the Estrada index of $Gamma$, which is defined in 2000 by Ernesto Estrada, is defined as $EE(Gamma)=sum_{i=1}^ne^{lambda_i}$. In this paper, we compute the eigen...
متن کاملD-Spectrum and D-Energy of Complements of Iterated Line Graphs of Regular Graphs
The D-eigenvalues {µ1,…,µp} of a graph G are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix D and form its D-spectrum. The D-energy, ED(G) of G is given by ED (G) =∑i=1p |µi|. Two non cospectral graphs with respect to D are said to be D-equi energetic if they have the same D-energy. In this paper we show that if G is an r-regular graph on p vertices with 2r ≤ p - 1, then the complements of iterated lin...
متن کاملOn the distance eigenvalues of Cayley graphs
In this paper, we determine the distance matrix and its characteristic polynomial of a Cayley graph over a group G in terms of irreducible representations of G. We give exact formulas for n-prisms, hexagonal torus network and cubic Cayley graphs over abelian groups. We construct an innite family of distance integral Cayley graphs. Also we prove that a nite abelian group G admits a connected...
