Let S(n, c) = K1∨(cK2∪(n−2c−1)K1), where n ≥ 2c+1 and c ≥ 0. In this paper, S(n, c) and its complement are shown to be determined by their Laplacian spectra, respectively. Moreover, we also prove that S(n, c) and its complement are determined by their signless Laplacian spectra, respectively.

The spectrum of the Laplacian, signless Laplacian and adjacency matrices of the family of the weighted graphs R{H}, obtained from a connected weighted graph R on r vertices and r copies of a modified Bethe tree H by identifying the root of the i-th copy of H with the i-th vertex of R, is determined.

Let S(n, c) = K1∨(cK2∪(n−2c−1)K1), where n ≥ 2c+1 and c ≥ 0. In this paper, S(n, c) and its complement are shown to be determined by their Laplacian spectra, respectively. Moreover, we also prove that S(n, c) and its complement are determined by their signless Laplacian spectra, respectively.

Several inequalities on vertex degrees, eigenvalues, Laplacian eigen-values, and signless Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs are presented in this note. Some of them are generalizations of the inequalities in [2]. We consider only finite undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. Notation and terminology not defined here follow that in [1]. We use [n] to denote the set of { 1, 2, ..., n}. ...

In this paper, we study the signless Laplacian spectral radius of unicyclic graphs with prescribed number of pendant vertices or independence number. We also characterize the extremal graphs completely.

The signless Laplacian Q and edge-Laplacian S of a given graph may or not be invertible. Moore-Penrose inverses are studied. In particular, using the incidence matrix, we find combinatorial formulas for trees. Also, present odd unicyclic graphs.

Let B(n, g) be the class of bicyclic graphs on n vertices with girth g. In this paper, the graphs in B(n, g) with the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius are characterized.

In this paper, we investigate how the smallest signless Laplacian eigenvalue of a graph behaves when the graph is perturbed by deleting a vertex, subdividing edges or moving edges.
