Let D be a digraph with n vertices and arcs. The Laplacian the signless matrices of are, respectively, defined as L(D)=Deg+(D)−A(D) Q(D)=Deg+(D)+A(D), where A(D) represents adjacency matrix Deg+(D) diagonal whose elements are out-degrees in D. We derive combinatorial representation regarding first few coefficients (signless) characteristic polynomial provide concrete directed motifs to highligh...

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...

Suppose π = (d1, d2, . . . , dn) and π = (d1, d ′ 2 , . . . , dn) are two positive nonincreasing degree sequences, write π ⊳ π if and only if π 6= π, ∑n i=1 di = ∑n i=1 d ′ i, and ∑j i=1 di ≤ ∑j i=1 di for all j = 1, 2, . . . , n. Let ρ(G) and μ(G) be the spectral radius and signless Laplacian spectral radius of G, respectively. Also let G and G be the extremal graphs with the maximal (signless...

For a simple graph G, let e(G) denote the number of edges and Sk(G) denote the sum of the k largest eigenvalues of the signless Laplacian matrix of G. We conjecture that for any graph G with n vertices, Sk(G) ≤ e(G) + k+1 2 for k = 1, . . . , n. We prove the conjecture for k = 2 for any graph, and for all k for regular graphs. The conjecture is an analogous to a conjecture by A.E. Brouwer with ...

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.

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...

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...
