On the sum of k largest eigenvalues of graphs and symmetric matrices
نویسنده
چکیده
Let k be a positive integer and let G be a graph of order n ≥ k. It is proved that the sum of k largest eigenvalues of G is at most 1 2 ( √ k+1)n. This bound is shown to be best possible in the sense that for every k there exist graphs whose sum is 12 ( √ k + 12 )n− o(k−2/5)n. A generalization to arbitrary symmetric matrices is given.

Some remarks on the sum of the inverse values of the normalized signless Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs
Let G=(V,E), $V={v_1,v_2,ldots,v_n}$, be a simple connected graph with $%n$ vertices, $m$ edges and a sequence of vertex degrees $d_1geqd_2geqcdotsgeq d_n>0$, $d_i=d(v_i)$. Let ${A}=(a_{ij})_{ntimes n}$ and ${%D}=mathrm{diag }(d_1,d_2,ldots , d_n)$ be the adjacency and the diagonaldegree matrix of $G$, respectively. Denote by ${mathcal{L}^+}(G)={D}^{-1/2}(D+A) {D}^{-1/2}$ the normalized signles...
متن کاملOn the sum of two largest eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix
D. Gernert conjectured that the sum of two largest eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of any simple graph is at most the number of vertices of the graph. This can be proved, in particular, for all regular graphs. Gernert’s conjecture was recently disproved by one of the authors [4], who also provided a nontrivial upper bound for the sum of two largest eigenvalues. In this paper we improve the ...
متن کاملCOMPUTING THE EIGENVALUES OF CAYLEY GRAPHS OF ORDER p2q
A graph is called symmetric if its full automorphism group acts transitively on the set of arcs. The Cayley graph $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ on group $G$ is said to be normal symmetric if $N_A(R(G))=R(G)rtimes Aut(G,S)$ acts transitively on the set of arcs of $Gamma$. In this paper, we classify all connected tetravalent normal symmetric Cayley graphs of order $p^2q$ where $p>q$ are prime numbers.
متن کاملThe Signless Laplacian Estrada Index of Unicyclic Graphs
For a simple graph $G$, the signless Laplacian Estrada index is defined as $SLEE(G)=sum^{n}_{i=1}e^{q^{}_i}$, where $q^{}_1, q^{}_2, dots, q^{}_n$ are the eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of $G$. In this paper, we first characterize the unicyclic graphs with the first two largest and smallest $SLEE$'s and then determine the unique unicyclic graph with maximum $SLEE$ a...
متن کاملOn the sum of signless Laplacian eigenvalues of a graph
For a simple graph G, let e(G) denote the number of edges and Sk(G) denote the sum of the k largest eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of G. We conjecture that for any graph G with n vertices, Sk(G) ≤ e(G) + k+1 2 for k = 1, . . . , n. We prove the conjecture for k = 2 for any graph, and for all k for regular graphs. The conjecture is an analogous to a conjecture by A.E. Brouwer with ...
