On the Laplacian and Signless Laplacian Characteristic Polynomials of a Digraph

Seidel Signless Laplacian Energy of Graphs

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^+...

H-eigenvalues of Laplacian and Signless Laplacian Tensors

We propose a simple and natural definition for the Laplacian and the signless Laplacian tensors of a uniform hypergraph. We study their H-eigenvalues, i.e., H-eigenvalues with nonnegative H-eigenvectors, and H-eigenvalues, i.e., H-eigenvalues with positive H-eigenvectors. We show that each of the Laplacian tensor, the signless Laplacian tensor, and the adjacency tensor has at most one H-eigenva...

On the log-concavity of Laplacian characteristic polynomials of graphs

Let G be a graph and L(G) be the Laplacian matrix of G. In this article, we first point out that the sequence of the moduli of Laplacian coefficients of G is log-concave and hence unimodal. Using this fact, we provide an upper bound for the partial sums of the Laplacian eigenvalues of G, based on coefficients of its Laplacian characteristic polynomial. We then obtain some lower bounds on the al...

On the Laplacian characteristic polynomials of mixed graphs

Let G be a mixed graph and L(G) be the Laplacian matrix of G. In this paper, the coefficients of the Laplacian characteristic polynomial of G are studied. The first derivative of the characteristic polynomial of L(G) is explicitly expressed by means of Laplacian characteristic polynomials of its edge deleted subgraphs. As a consequence, it is shown that the Laplacian characteristic polynomial o...
