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...

We determine the graph with the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius among all unicyclic graphs with fixed matching number.

The graph with the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius among all bicyclic graphs with perfect matchings is determined.

Let U(n, g) and B(n, g) be the set of unicyclic graphs and bicyclic graphs on n vertices with girth g, respectively. Let B1(n, g) be the subclass of B(n, g) consisting of all bicyclic graphs with two edge-disjoint cycles and B2(n, g) = B(n, g)\B1(n, g). This paper determines the unique graph with the maximal signless Laplacian spectral radius among all graphs in U(n, g) and B(n, g), respectivel...

A connected graph is called a c-cyclic graph if it contains n vertices and n + c − 1 edges. Let C(n, k, c) denote the class of connected c-cyclic graphs with n vertices and k pendant vertices. Recently, the unique extremal graph, which has greatest (respectively, signless) Laplacian spectral radius, in C(n, k, c) has been determined for 0 ≤ c ≤ 3, k ≥ 1 and n ≥ 2c + k + 1. In this paper, the un...

In this paper we define extended corona and extended neighborhood corona of two graphs G1 and G2, which are denoted by G1 • G2 and G1 ∗ G2 respectively. We compute their adjacency spectrum, Laplacian spectrum and signless Laplacian spectrum. As applications, we give methods to construct infinite families of integral graphs, Laplacian integral graphs and expander graphs from known ones.
