The signless Laplacian separator of a graph is defined as the difference between the largest eigenvalue and the second largest eigenvalue of the associated signless Laplacian matrix. In this paper, we determine the maximum signless Laplacian separators of unicyclic, bicyclic and tricyclic graphs with given order.

In this paper graphs with the largest Laplacian eigenvalue at most 4 are characterized. Using this we show that the graphs with the largest Laplacian eigenvalue less than 4 are determined by their Laplacian spectra. Moreover, we prove that ones with no isolated vertex are determined by their adjacency spectra.

Among the eigenvalue problems of the Laplacian, the biharmonic operator eigenvalue problems are interesting projects because these problems root in physics and geometric analysis. The buckling problem is one of the most important problems in physics, and many studies have been done by the researchers about the solution and the estimate of its eigenvalue. In this paper, first, we obtain the evol...

‎let $g$ be a graph without an isolated vertex‎, ‎the normalized laplacian matrix $tilde{mathcal{l}}(g)$‎‎is defined as $tilde{mathcal{l}}(g)=mathcal{d}^{-frac{1}{2}}mathcal{l}(g) mathcal{d}^{-frac{1}{2}}$‎, where ‎$‎mathcal{‎d}‎$ ‎is a‎ diagonal matrix whose entries are degree of ‎vertices ‎‎of ‎$‎g‎$‎‎. ‎the eigenvalues of‎‎$tilde{mathcal{l}}(g)$ are ‎called ‎ ‎ as ‎the ‎normalized laplacian ...

In this paper, we show that the largest signless Laplacian H-eigenvalue of a connected k-uniform hypergraph G, where k ≥ 3, reaches its upper bound 2∆(G), where ∆(G) is the largest degree of G, if and only if G is regular. Thus the largest Laplacian H-eigenvalue of G, reaches the same upper bound, if and only if G is regular and oddbipartite. We show that an s-cycle G, as a k-uniform hypergraph...

We consider the normalized Laplacian matrix for signed graphs and derive interlacing results for its spectrum. In particular, we investigate the effects of several basic graph operations, such as edge removal and addition and vertex contraction, on the Laplacian eigenvalues. We also study vertex replication, whereby a vertex in the graph is duplicated together with its neighboring relations. Th...

In this paper, we established a connection between the Laplacian eigenvalues of a signed graph and those of a mixed graph, gave a new upper bound for the largest Laplacian eigenvalue of a signed graph and characterized the extremal graph whose largest Laplacian eigenvalue achieved the upper bound. In addition, an example showed that the upper bound is the best in known upper bounds for some cases.

Let L(G) be the Laplacian matrix of G. In this paper, we characterize all of the connected graphs with second largest Laplacian eigenvalue no more than l; where l . = 3.2470 is the largest root of the equation μ3 − 5μ2 + 6μ − 1 = 0. Moreover, this result is used to characterize all connected graphs with second largest Laplacian eigenvalue no more than three. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights rese...

We consider weighted graphs, where the edge weights are positive definite matrices. The Laplacian of the graph is defined in the usual way. We obtain an upper bound on the largest eigenvalue of the Laplacian and characterize graphs for which the bound is attained. The classical bound of Anderson and Morley, for the largest eigenvalue of the Laplacian of an unweighted graph follows as a special ...

The aim of the book is to provide an analysis of the boundary element method for the numerical solution of Laplacian eigenvalue problems. The representation of Laplacian eigenvalue problems in the form of boundary integral equations leads to nonlinear eigenvalue problems for related boundary integral operators. The solution of boundary element discretizations of such eigenvalue problems require...
