چکیده

Definition 1. OG is the set of real symmetric V_V matrices with entries ai, j such that ai, j<0 if [i, j] # E and ai, j=0 if i{ j and [i, j] E. An operator A # OG has a non-degenerate first eigenvalue *1 (groundstate) if G is connected (Perron and Frobenius). The invariant +(G) is defined using multiplicities of the second eigenvalue *2 for some real symmetric matrix A # OG . Moreover, +(G) is related to the genus of G : +(G) 3 if and only if G is planar and more generally +(G) 4 genus(G)+3. Recently, Lova sz and Schrijver [20] proved that linklessly Article No. TB981834

Small graphs with exactly two non-negative eigenvalues

Let $G$ be a graph with eigenvalues $lambda_1(G)geqcdotsgeqlambda_n(G)$. In this paper we find all simple graphs $G$ such that $G$ has at most twelve vertices and $G$ has exactly two non-negative eigenvalues. In other words we find all graphs $G$ on $n$ vertices such that $nleq12$ and $lambda_1(G)geq0$, $lambda_2(G)geq0$ and $lambda_3(G)0$, $lambda_2(G)>0$ and $lambda_3(G)

Ela Spectra of Weighted Rooted Graphs Having Prescribed Subgraphs at Some Levels

Let B be a weighted generalized Bethe tree of k levels (k > 1) in which nj is the number of vertices at the level k− j+1 (1 ≤ j ≤ k). Let ∆ ⊆ {1, 2, . . . , k − 1} and F= {Gj : j ∈ ∆}, where Gj is a prescribed weighted graph on each set of children of B at the level k−j+1. In this paper, the eigenvalues of a block symmetric tridiagonal matrix of order n1 +n2 + · · ·+nk are characterized as the ...

On the eigenvalues of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs

A graph $Gamma$ is said to be vertex-transitive or edge‎- ‎transitive‎ ‎if the automorphism group of $Gamma$ acts transitively on $V(Gamma)$ or $E(Gamma)$‎, ‎respectively‎. ‎Let $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ be a Cayley graph on $G$ relative to $S$‎. ‎Then, $Gamma$ is said to be normal edge-transitive‎, ‎if $N_{Aut(Gamma)}(G)$ acts transitively on edges‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎the eigenvalues of normal edge-tra...

On the distance eigenvalues of Cayley graphs

In this paper, we determine the distance matrix and its characteristic polynomial of a Cayley graph over a group G in terms of irreducible representations of G. We give exact formulas for n-prisms, hexagonal torus network and cubic Cayley graphs over abelian groups. We construct an innite family of distance integral Cayley graphs. Also we prove that a nite abelian group G admits a connected...
