Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices, independence number $\alpha(G)$, Lov\'asz theta function $\vartheta(G)$, and Shannon capacity $\Theta(G)$. We define $n_{\ge0}(G)$ to be the minimum number of non-negative eigenvalues taken over all…

The $p$-spectral radius of a graph $G\ $of order $n$ is defined for any real number $p\geq1$ as \[ \lambda^{\left( p\right) }\left( G\right) =\max\left\{ 2\sum_{\{i,j\}\in E\left( G\right) \ }x_{i}x_{j}:x_{1},\ldots,x_{n}\in\mathbb{R}\text{…

The concept of Randic index has been extended recently for a digraph. We prove that $2R(G)\leq \mathcal{E}(G)\leq 2\sqrt{\Delta(G)} R(G)$, where $G$ is a digraph, and $R(G)$ denotes the Randic index, $\mathcal{E}(G)$ denotes the Nikiforov…

The signless Laplacian matrix of a graph $G$ is given by $Q(G)=D(G)+A(G)$, where $D(G)$ is a diagonal matrix of vertex degrees and $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix. The largest eigenvalue of $Q(G)$ is called the signless Laplacian spectral…

Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph with vertex set $V(G)=\{v_1, v_2, \ldots, v_n\}$ and edge set $E(G)$. The Sombor matrix $\mathcal{S}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined so that its $(i,j)$-entry is equal to $\sqrt{d_i^2+d_j^2}$ if the…

For an $n \times n$ matrix $A$, let $q(A)$ be the number of distinct eigenvalues of $A$. If $G$ is a connected graph on $n$ vertices, let $\mathcal{S}(G)$ be the set of all real symmetric $n \times n$ matrices $A=[a_{ij}]$ such that for…

Let $G$ be a graph with a vertex weight $\omega$ and the vertices $v_1,\ldots,v_n$. The Laplacian matrix of $G$ with respect to $\omega$ is defined as $L_\omega(G)=\mathrm{diag}(\omega(v_1),\cdots,\omega(v_n))-A(G)$, where $A(G)$ is the…

For a graph $G$ on $v(G)$ vertices let $m_k(G)$ denote the number of matchings of size $k$, and consider the partition function $M_{G}(\lambda)=\sum_{k=0}^nm_k(G)\lambda^k$. In this paper we show that if $G$ is a $d$--regular graph and…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph on $n$ vertices, and let $\lambda_1(L(G))\ge \cdots\ge \lambda_{n-1}(L(G))\ge \lambda_n(L(G))=0$ be the eigenvalues of its Laplacian matrix $L(G)$. Brouwer conjectured that for every $1\le k\le n$, $\sum_{i=1}^k…

A simple topological graph $G$ is a graph drawn in the plane so that any pair of edges have at most one point in common, which is either an endpoint or a proper crossing. $G$ is called saturated if no further edge can be added without…

The power graph of an arbitrary group $G$ is a simple graph with all elements of $G$ as its vertices and two vertices are adjacent if one is a positive power of another. In this paper, we generalize this concept to a graph whose vertices…

Given a group $G$, the enhanced power graph of $G$ denoted by $\mathcal{G}_e(G)$, is the graph with vertex set $G$ and two distinct vertices $x, y$ are edge connected in $\mathcal{G}_e(G)$ if there exists $z\in G $ such that $x=z^m$ and $…

For a connected graph $G$, its resistance distance matrix is denoted by $R(G)$. A graph is called resistance regular if all the row (or column) sums of $R(G)$ are equal. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a simple connected…

The energy of a graph is defined as the sum of the absolute values of all eigenvalues of the graph. Akbari et al. \cite{S. Akbari} proved that for a complete multipartite graph $K_{t_1 ,\ldots,t_k}$, if $t_i\geq 2 \ (i=1,\ldots,k)$, then…

Edge-girth-regular graphs (abbreviated as $egr$ graphs) are a class of highly regular graphs. More specifically, for integers $v$, $k$, $g$ and $\lambda$ an $egr(v,k,g,\lambda)$ graph is a $k$-regular graph with girth $g$ on $v$ vertices…

For a Hermitian matrix $A$ of order $n$ with eigenvalues $\lambda_1(A)\ge \cdots\ge \lambda_n(A)$, define \[ \mathcal{E}_p^+(A)=\sum_{\lambda_i > 0} \lambda_i^p(A), \quad \mathcal{E}_p^-(A)=\sum_{\lambda_i<0} |\lambda_i(A)|^p,\] to be the…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of graphs. We say a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{F}$-saturated if $G$ does not contain any member in $\mathcal{F}$ and for any $e\in E(\overline{G})$, $G+e$ creates a copy of some member in $…

We consider undirected simple finite graphs. The sets of vertices and edges of a graph $G$ are denoted by $V(G)$ and $E(G)$, respectively. For a graph $G$, we denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\eta(G)$ the least degree of a vertex of $G$ and the…

A matching in a graph $G$ is a set of independent edges in $G$. A perfect matching in a graph $G$ is a matching which saturates all the vertices of $G$. A fractional perfect matching in a graph $G$ is a function $h:E(G)\rightarrow [0,1]$…

The generalized power of a simple graph $G$, denoted by $G^{k,s}$, is obtained from $G$ by blowing up each vertex into an $s$-set and each edge into a $k$-set, where $1 \le s \le \frac{k}{2}$. When $s < \frac{k}{2}$, $G^{k,s}$ is always…
