چکیده

Let G be an undirected graph on n vertices and let S(G) be the set of all real symmetric n × n matrices whose nonzero off-diagonal entries occur in exactly the positions corresponding to the edges of G. The inverse inertia problem for G asks which inertias can be attained by a matrix in S(G). We give a complete answer to this question for trees in terms of a new family of graph parameters, the maximal disconnection numbers of a graph. We also give a formula for the inertia set of a graph with a cut vertex in terms of inertia sets of proper subgraphs. Finally, we give an example of a graph that is not inertia-balanced, and investigate restrictions on the inertia set of any graph.

Ela the Inverse Eigenvalue and Inertia Problems for Minimum Rank Two Graphs∗

Abstract. Let G be an undirected graph on n vertices and let S(G) be the set of all real symmetric n×n matrices whose nonzero off-diagonal entries occur in exactly the positions corresponding to the edges of G. Let mr(G) denote the minimum rank of all matrices in S(G), and mr+(G) the minimum rank of all positive semidefinite matrices in S(G). All graphs G with mr(G) = 2 and mr+(G) = k are chara...

Ela Inertia Sets for Graphs on Six or Fewer Vertices

Let G be an undirected graph on n vertices and let S(G) be the set of all real symmetric n×n matrices whose nonzero off-diagonal entries occur in exactly the positions corresponding to the edges of G. The inverse inertia problem for G asks which inertias can be attained by a matrix in S(G), a question which was previously answered when G is a tree. In this paper, a number of new techniques are ...

A graphical difference between the inverse and regular semigroups

In this paper we investigate the Green‎ ‎graphs for the regular and inverse semigroups by considering the‎ ‎Green classes of them‎. ‎And by using the properties of these‎ ‎semigroups‎, ‎we prove that all of the five Green graphs for the‎ ‎inverse semigroups are isomorphic complete graphs‎, ‎while this‎ ‎doesn't hold for the regular semigroups‎. ‎In other words‎, ‎we prove‎ ‎that in a regular se...

Particle Swarm Optimization with Smart Inertia Factor for Combined Heat and Power Economic Dispatch

In this paper particle swarm optimization with smart inertia factor (PSO-SIF) algorithm is proposed to solve combined heat and power economic dispatch (CHPED) problem. The CHPED problem is one of the most important problems in power systems and is a challenging non-convex and non-linear optimization problem. The aim of solving CHPED problem is to determine optimal heat and power of generating u...

Some remarks on the sum of the inverse values of the normalized signless Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs

Let G=(V,E), $V={v_1,v_2,ldots,v_n}$, be a simple connected graph with $%n$ vertices, $m$ edges and a sequence of vertex degrees $d_1geqd_2geqcdotsgeq d_n>0$, $d_i=d(v_i)$. Let ${A}=(a_{ij})_{ntimes n}$ and ${%D}=mathrm{diag }(d_1,d_2,ldots , d_n)$ be the adjacency and the diagonaldegree matrix of $G$, respectively. Denote by ${mathcal{L}^+}(G)={D}^{-1/2}(D+A) {D}^{-1/2}$ the normalized signles...
