Let q (G) denote the spectral radius of the signless Laplacian matrix of a graph G, also known as the Q-index of G. The aim of this note is to study a general extremal problem: How large can q (G) be when G belongs to an abstract graph property? Even knowing very little about the graph property, this paper shows that useful conclusions about the asymptotics of q (G) can be made, which turn out ...

A graph G is said to be determined by its Q-spectrum if with respect to the signless Laplacian matrix Q , any graph having the same spectrum as G is isomorphic to G. The lollipop graph, denoted by Hn,p, is obtained by appending a cycle Cp to a pendant vertex of a path Pn−p. In this paper, it is proved that all lollipop graphs are determined by their Q -spectra. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights r...

SLEE has various applications in a large variety of problems. The signless Laplacian Estrada index hypergraph H is defined as SLEE(H)=∑i=1neλi(Q), where λ1(Q),λ2(Q),…,λn(Q) are the eigenvalues matrix H. In this paper, we characterize unique r-uniform unicyclic hypergraphs with maximum and minimum SLEE.
