Nested split and double nested graphs (commonly named nested graphs) are considered. General statements regarding the signless Laplacian spectra are proven, and the nested graphs whose second largest signless Laplacian eigenvalue is bounded by a fixed integral constant are studied. Some sufficient conditions are provided and a procedure for classifying such graphs in particular cases is provide...

The main aim of this study is to characterize new classes of multicone graphs which are determined by their signless Laplacian spectra. A multicone graph is defined to be the join of a clique and a regular graph. Let C and K w denote the Clebsch graph and a complete graph on w vertices, respectively. In this paper, we show that the multicone graphs K w ▽C are determined by their signless ...

Let U(n, k) be the set of non-bipartite unicyclic graphs with n vertices and k pendant vertices, where n ≥ 4. In this paper, the unique graph with the minimal least eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian among all graphs in U(n, k) is determined. Furthermore, it is proved that the minimal least eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian is an increasing function in k. Let Un denote the set of non-bipar...

In this note we address the problem of graph isomorphism by means of eigenvalue spectra of different matrix representations: the neighborhood matrix M̂ , its corresponding signless Laplacian QM̂ , and the set of higher order adjacency matrices M`s. We find that, in relation to graphs with at most 10 vertices, QM̂ leads to better results than the signless Laplacian Q; besides, when combined with M̂ ...

Let $D$ be a diameter and $d_G(v_i, v_j)$ be the distance between the vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ of a connected graph $G$. The complementary distance signless Laplacian matrix of a graph $G$ is $CDL^+(G)=[c_{ij}]$ in which $c_{ij}=1+D-d_G(v_i, v_j)$ if $ineq j$ and $c_{ii}=sum_{j=1}^{n}(1+D-d_G(v_i, v_j))$. The complementary transmission $CT_G(v)$ of a vertex $v$ is defined as $CT_G(v)=sum_{u in ...

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...
