A group-labeled graph is a graph whose vertices and edges have been assigned labels from some abelian group. The weight of a subgraph of a group-labeled graph is the sum of the labels of the vertices and edges in the subgraph. A group-labeled graph is said to be balanced if the weight of every cycle in the graph is zero. We give a characterization of balanced group-labeled graphs that generaliz...

Let G be a simple connected graph and {v_1,v_2,..., v_k} be the set of pendent (vertices of degree one) vertices of G. The reduced distance matrix of G is a square matrix whose (i,j)-entry is the topological distance between v_i and v_j of G. In this paper, we compute the spectrum of the reduced distance matrix of the generalized Bethe trees.
