Let G be a simple connected graph. The transmission of any vertex v of a graph G is defined as the sum of distances of a vertex v from all other vertices in a graph G. Then the distance signless Laplacian matrix of G is defined as D^{Q}(G)=D(G)+Tr(G), where D(G) denotes the distance matrix of graphs and Tr(G) is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions of G. For a given minimum dominating se...

For a connected graph G, we derive tight inequalities relating the smallest signless Laplacian eigenvalue to the largest normalised Laplacian eigenvalue. We investigate how vectors yielding small values of the Rayleigh quotient for the signless Laplacian matrix can be used to identify bipartite subgraphs. Our results are applied to some graphs with degree sequences approximately following a pow...

A signless Laplacian eigenvalue of a graph G is called a main signless Laplacian eigenvalue if it has an eigenvector the sum of whose entries is not equal to zero. In this paper, some necessary and sufficient conditions for a graph with one main signless Laplacian eigenvalue or two main signless Laplacian eigenvalues are given. And the trees and unicyclic graphs with exactly two main signless L...

The investigation of the spectral distances of graphs that started in [3] (I. Jovanović, Z. Stanić, Spectral distances of graphs, Linear Algebra Appl., 436 (2012) 1425–1435.) is continued by defining Laplacian and signless Laplacian spectral distances and considering their relations to the spectral distances based on the adjacency matrix of graph. Some separate results concerning the defined di...

Let η(G) denote the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of a connected graph G. In this paper, bounds for the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of connected graphs are given, and the extremal graph with the minimal distance signless Laplacian spectral radius among the graphs with given vertex connectivity and minimum degree is determined. Furthermore, the digraph that minimize...

Let G be a simple connected graph with pendant vertex set ∂V and nonpendant vertex set V0. The signless Laplacian matrix of G is denoted by Q(G). The signless Dirichlet eigenvalue is a real number λ such that there exists a function f ̸= 0 on V (G) such that Q(G)f(u) = λf(u) for u ∈ V0 and f(u) = 0 for u ∈ ∂V . The signless Dirichlet spectral radius λ(G) is the largest signless Dirichlet eigenva...

Let G be a weighted graph with Laplacian matrix L and signless Laplacian matrix Q. In this note, block representations for the group inverse of L and Q are given. The resistance distance in a graph can be obtained from the block representation of the group inverse of L.

In this paper, some inequality relations between the Laplacian/signless Laplacian H-eigenvalues and the clique/coclique numbers of uniform hypergraphs are presented. For a connected uniform hypergraph, some tight lower bounds on the largest Laplacian H+-eigenvalue and signless Laplacian H-eigenvalue related to the clique/coclique numbers are given. And some upper and lower bounds on the clique/...

A connected graph is called Q-controllable if its signless Laplacian eigenvalues are mutually distinct and main. Two graphs G and H are said to be Q-cospectral if they share the same signless Laplacian spectrum. In this paper, infinite families of Q-controllable graphs are constructed, by using the operator of rooted product introduced by Godsil and McKay. In the process, infinitely many non-is...
