The Laplacian spread of a graph is defined to be the difference between the largest eigenvalue and the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. In this paper, we investigate Laplacian spread of graphs, and prove that there exist exactly five types of tricyclic graphs with maximum Laplacian spread among all tricyclic graphs of fixed order.

recently, we have used the symmetric bracket of vector fields, and developed the notion of the symmetric derivation. using this machinery, we have defined the concept of symmetric curvature. this concept is natural and is related to the notions divergence and laplacian of vector fields. this concept is also related to the derivations on the algebra of symmetric forms which has been discus...

The graph Laplacian plays key roles in information processing of relational data, and has analogies with the Laplacian in differential geometry. In this paper, we generalize the analogy between graph Laplacian and differential geometry to the hypergraph setting, and propose a novel hypergraph pLaplacian. Unlike the existing two-node graph Laplacians, this generalization makes it possible to ana...

In this paper, we investigate the Laplacian, i.e., the normalized Laplacian tensor of a k-uniform hypergraph. We show that the real parts of all the eigenvalues of the Laplacian are in the interval [0, 2], and the real part is zero (respectively two) if and only if the eigenvalue is zero (respectively two). All the H+-eigenvalues of the Laplacian and all the smallest H+-eigenvalues of its sub-t...

In this paper, we introduce a new class of nonlocal p-Laplacian operators that interpolate between non-local Laplacian and infinity Laplacian. These operators are discrete analogous of the game p-laplacian operators on Euclidean spaces, and involve discrete morphological gradient on graphs. We study the Dirichlet problem associated with the new p-Laplacian equation and prove existence and uniqu...

The Laplacian and normalized Laplacian energy of G are given by expressions EL(G) = ∑n i=1 |μi − d|, EL(G) = ∑n i=1 |λi − 1|, respectively, where μi and λi are the eigenvalues of Laplacian matrix L and normalized Laplacian matrix L of G. An interesting problem in spectral graph theory is to find graphs {L,L}−noncospectral with the same E{L,L}(G). In this paper, we present graphs of order n, whi...

in the present study we search potential of pt-decorated graphene (ptg) as a new nanostructure adsorbent for nitrous oxide (n2o) using density functional theory (dft). after fully relaxation of different possible orientations of n2o-ptg complex, we distinguished two optimized configurations for this system; 1- terminal n-side of gas is oriented towards pt so that the molecule axis is perpendicu...

a multicone graph is defined to be join of a clique and a regular graph. a graph $ g $ is  cospectral with  graph $ h $ if their adjacency matrices have the same eigenvalues. a graph $ g $ is  said to be  determined by its spectrum or ds for short, if for any graph $ h $ with $ spec(g)=spec(h)$, we conclude that $ g $ is isomorphic to $ h $. in this paper, we present new classes of  multicone g...
