On the First Eigenvalue of Bipartite Graphs

چکیده
In this paper we study the maximum value of the largest eigenvalue for simple bipartite graphs, where the number of edges is given and the number of vertices on each side of the bipartition is given. We state a conjectured solution, which is an analog of the Brualdi-Hoffman conjecture for general graphs, and prove the conjecture in some special cases.

The p-median and p-center Problems on Bipartite Graphs
Let $G$ be a bipartite graph. In this paper we consider the two kind of location problems namely $p$-center and $p$-median problems on bipartite graphs. The $p$-center and $p$-median problems asks to find a subset of vertices of cardinality $p$, so that respectively the maximum and sum of the distances from this set to all other vertices in $G$ is minimized. For each case we present some proper...
متن کاملBipartite graphs with small third Laplacian eigenvalue
In this paper, all connected bipartite graphs are characterized whose third largest Laplacian eigenvalue is less than three. Moreover, the result is used to characterize all connected bipartite graphs with exactly two Laplacian eigenvalues not less than three, and all connected line graphs of bipartite graphs with the third eigenvalue of their adjacency matrices less than one. c © 2003 Elsevier...
متن کاملThe least eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian of non-bipartite unicyclic graphs with k pendant vertices
Let U(n, k) be the set of non-bipartite unicyclic graphs with n vertices and k pendant vertices, where n ≥ 4. In this paper, the unique graph with the minimal least eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian among all graphs in U(n, k) is determined. Furthermore, it is proved that the minimal least eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian is an increasing function in k. Let Un denote the set of non-bipar...

متن کاملGraphs for which the least eigenvalue is minimal, II
We continue our investigation of graphsG for which the least eigenvalue λ(G) is minimal among the connected graphs of prescribed order and size. We provide structural details of the bipartite graphs that arise, and study the behaviour of λ(G) as the size increases while the order remains constant. The non-bipartite graphs that arise were investigated in a previous paper [F.K. Bell, D. Cvetković...
