Abstract
Let be a weighted graph. The \textit{inertia} of is the triple , where are the number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of including their multiplicities, respectively. , is called the \textit{positive, negative index of inertia} of , respectively. In this paper we present a lower bound for the positive, negative index of weighted unicyclic graphs of order with fixed girth and characterize all weighted unicyclic graphs attaining this lower bound. Moreover, we characterize the weighted unicyclic graphs of order with two positive, two negative and at least zero eigenvalues, respectively.
