a concept related to the spectrum of a graph is that of energy. the energy e(g) of a graph g is equal to the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of g . the laplacian energy of a graph g is equal to the sum of distances of the laplacian eigenvalues of g and the average degree d(g) of g. in this paper we introduce the concept of laplacian energy of fuzzy graphs. ...

This paper is concerned with the dynamics evolution of opinions in the presence of both cooperations and antagonisms. The class of Laplacian flows is addressed through signed digraphs subject to switching topologies. Further, a state transition matrix-based approach is developed for the analysis of opinion dynamics, regardless of any assumptions on connectivity, structural balance or digon sign...

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph. Denote by $D(G)$ the diagonal matrix $diag(d_1,cdots,d_n)$, where $d_i$ is the degree of vertex $i$  and  $A(G)$ the adjacency matrix of $G$. The  signless Laplacianmatrix of $G$ is $Q(G) = D(G) + A(G)$ and the $k-$th signless Laplacian spectral moment of  graph $G$ is defined as $T_k(G)=sum_{i=1}^{n}q_i^{k}$, $kgeqslant 0$, where $q_1$,$q_2$, $cdots$, $q_n$ ...

This is an expository survey of the uses of matrices in the theory of simple graphs with signed edges. A signed simple graph is a graph, without loops or parallel edges, in which every edge has been declared positive or negative. For many purposes the most significant thing about a signed graph is not the actual edge signs, but the sign of each circle (or ‘cycle’ or ’circuit’), which is the pro...

Let $S(G)$ be the Seidel matrix of a graph $G$ of order $n$ and let $D_S(G)=diag(n-1-2d_1, n-1-2d_2,ldots, n-1-2d_n)$ be the diagonal matrix with $d_i$ denoting the degree of a vertex $v_i$ in $G$. The Seidel Laplacian matrix of $G$ is defined as $SL(G)=D_S(G)-S(G)$ and the Seidel signless Laplacian matrix as $SL^+(G)=D_S(G)+S(G)$. The Seidel signless Laplacian energy $E_{SL^+...

For any simple connected undirected graph, it is well known that the Kirchhoff and multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff indices can be computed using the Laplacian matrix. We show that the same is true for the additive degree-Kirchhoff index and give a compact Matlab program that computes all three Kirchhoffian indices with the Laplacian matrix as the only input.

Many applied problems can be posed as a dynamical system defined on a network with attractive and repulsive interactions. Examples include synchronization of nonlinear oscillator networks; the behavior of groups, or cliques, in social networks; and the study of optimal convergence for consensus algorithm. It is important to determine the index of a matrix, i.e., the number of positive and negat...

let $g = (v, e)$ be a simple graph. denote by $d(g)$ the diagonal matrix $diag(d_1,cdots,d_n)$, where $d_i$ is the degree of vertex $i$  and  $a(g)$ the adjacency matrix of $g$. the  signless laplacianmatrix of $g$ is $q(g) = d(g) + a(g)$ and the $k-$th signless laplacian spectral moment of  graph $g$ is defined as $t_k(g)=sum_{i=1}^{n}q_i^{k}$, $kgeqslant 0$, where $q_1$,$q_2$, $cdots$, $q_n$ ...

Abstract. Proper vertex colorings of a graph are related to its boundary map, also called its signed vertex-edge incidence matrix. The vertex Laplacian of a graph, a natural extension of the boundary map, leads us to introduce nowhere-harmonic colorings and analogues of the chromatic polynomial and Stanley’s theorem relating negative evaluations of the chromatic polynomial to acyclic orientatio...
