This paper gives tight upper bound on the largest eigenvalue q (G) of the signless Laplacian of graphs with no paths of given order. Thus, let Sn,k be the join of a complete graph of order k and an independent set of order n− k, and let S n,k be the graph obtained by adding an edge to Sn,k. The main result of the paper is the following theorem: Let k ≥ 1, n ≥ 7k, and let G be a graph of order n...

Abstract. Let G be a k-degenerate graph of order n. It is well-known that G has no more edges than Sn,k, the join of a complete graph of order k and an independent set of order n−k. In this note, it is shown that Sn,k is extremal for some spectral parameters of G as well. More precisely, letting μ (H) and q (H) denote the largest eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix and the signless Laplacian of...

Abstract Graphs can be associated with a matrix according to some rule and we find the spectrum of graph respect that matrix. Two graphs are cospectral if they have same spectrum. Constructions help us establish patterns about structural information not preserved by We generalize construction for previously given distance Laplacian larger family graphs. In addition, show appropriate assumptions...

Given a graph and a vector defined on the graph, a quadratic form is defined on the graph depending on its edges. In order to minimize the quadratic form on trees or unicyclic graphs associated with signless Laplacian, the notion of basic edge set of a graph is introduced, and the behavior of the least eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenvectors is investigated. Using these results a characte...
