چکیده
We present an algorithm for constructing the characteristic polynomial of a threshold graph’s adjacency matrix. The algorithm is based on a diagonalization procedure that is easy to describe. It can be implemented using O(n) space and with running time O(n).

Relationship between Coefficients of Characteristic Polynomial and Matching Polynomial of Regular Graphs and its Applications
ABSTRACT. Suppose G is a graph, A(G) its adjacency matrix and f(G, x)=x^n+a_(n-1)x^(n-1)+... is the characteristic polynomial of G. The matching polynomial of G is defined as M(G, x) = x^n-m(G,1)x^(n-2) + ... where m(G,k) is the number of k-matchings in G. In this paper, we determine the relationship between 2k-th coefficient of characteristic polynomial, a_(2k), and k-th coefficient of matchin...

Let G be a graph. The first Zagreb polynomial M1(G, x) and the third Zagreb polynomial M3(G, x) of the graph G are defined as: ( ) ( , ) [ ] e uv E G G x x d(u) + d(v) M1 , ( , ) euvE(G) G x x|d(u) - d(v)| M3 . In this paper, we compute the first and third Zagreb polynomials of Cartesian product of two graphs and a type of dendrimers.
متن کاملEfficient Computation of the Characteristic Polynomial of a Threshold Graph
Abstract. An efficient algorithm is presented to compute the characteristic polynomial of a threshold graph. Threshold graphs were introduced by Chvátal and Hammer, as well as by Henderson and Zalcstein in 1977. A threshold graph is obtained from a one vertex graph by repeatedly adding either an isolated vertex or a dominating vertex, which is a vertex adjacent to all the other vertices. Thresh...
متن کاملTenacity and some other Parameters of Interval Graphs can be computed in polynomial time
In general, computation of graph vulnerability parameters is NP-complete. In past, some algorithms were introduced to prove that computation of toughness, scattering number, integrity and weighted integrity parameters of interval graphs are polynomial. In this paper, two different vulnerability parameters of graphs, tenacity and rupture degree are defined. In general, computing the tenacity o...
متن کاملMore Equienergetic Signed Graphs
The energy of signed graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Two signed graphs are said to be equienergetic if they have same energy. In the literature the construction of equienergetic signed graphs are reported. In this paper we obtain the characteristic polynomial and energy of the join of two signed graphs and thereby we give another construction ...
