Abstract

The energy of a vertex viv_i in a graph GG is defined as EG(vi)=Aii\mathcal{E}_G(v_i) = |A|_{ii}, where AA is the adjacency matrix of GG, AA^* denotes the conjugate transpose of AA, and A=(AA)1/2|A| = (AA^*)^{1/2}. The total energy of the graph, E(G)\mathcal{E}(G), is then the sum of the energies of all vertices: E(G)=EG(v1)+EG(v2)++EG(vn)\mathcal{E}(G) = \mathcal{E}_G(v_1) + \mathcal{E}_G(v_2) + \dots + \mathcal{E}_G(v_n). In this paper, we compute the vertex energy for several well-known regular graphs, including the Frucht graph, Desargues graph, Tutte-Coxeter graph, Heawood graph, Shrikhande graph, and Petersen graph.
