The enhanced power graph, $\mathcal{E}(G)$, of a group $G$ has vertex set $G$ and two elements are adjacent if they generate a cyclic subgroup. In the case of finite groups, we identify some striking and unexpected properties of these…

The resolvent energy of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is defined as $ER=\sum_{i=1}^n (n-\lambda_i)^{-1}$, where $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,\ldots,\lambda_n$ are the eigenvalues of $G$. In a recent work [Gutman et al., {\it MATCH Commun. Math. Comput.…

A "signed graph" is a graph $\Gamma$ where the edges are assigned sign labels, either "$+$" or "$-$". The sign of a cycle is the product of the signs of its edges. Let $\mathrm{SpecC}(\Gamma)$ denote the list of lengths of cycles in…

A signed graph is a graph in which every edge carries a $+$ or a $-$ sign. In this paper, we determine the signed graphs with maximum spectral radius among all unbalanced signed graphs with fixed order that contain neither negative…

In his survey "Beyond graph energy: Norms of graphs and matrices" (2016), Nikiforov proposed two problems concerning characterizing the graphs that attain equality in a lower bound and in a upper bound for the energy of a graph,…

A method is presented to obtain {\it ab initio} upper and lower bounds to surface energies of stress-driven discommensurate surface structures, possibly non-periodic or exhibiting very large unit cells. The instability of the stressed,…

The total graph of $G$, $\mathcal T(G)$ is the graph whose set of vertices is the union of the sets of vertices and edges of $G$, where two vertices are adjacent if and only if they stand for either incident or adjacent elements in $G$. Let…

A weak notion of elastic energy for (not necessarily regular) rectifiable curves in any space dimension is proposed. Our $p$-energy is defined through a relaxation process, where a suitable $p$-rotation of inscribed polygonals is adopted.…

A signed graph $\Sigma$ is a pair $(G,\sigma)$, where $G=(V,E)$ is the underlying graph in which each edge is assigned $+1$ or $-1$ by the signature function $\sigma:E\rightarrow\{-1,+1\}$. In this paper, we extend the extensively applied…

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…

We present a diagrammatic approach to construct self-energy approximations within many-body perturbation theory with positive spectral properties. The method cures the problem of negative spectral functions which arises from a…

We establish a lower bound for the energy of a complex unit gain graph in terms of the matching number of its underlying graph, and characterize all the complex unit gain graphs whose energy reaches this bound.

We define and study two structures associated to permutation groups: Dirichlet characters on permutation groups, and the "cycle form," a bilinear form on the group algebras of permutation groups. We use Dirichlet characters and the cycle…

In this paper, we study the energy of semigraphs and obtain some bounds, and show that one of the bounds is tight. We also study the spectra of the adjacency matrix of a special type of rooted 3-uniform semigraph and enumerate those…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with eigenvalues $\lambda_1 \geq \cdots \geq\lambda_n$. Let \[s^+(G)=\sum_{\lambda_i>0} \lambda_i^2, \qquad s^-(G)=\sum_{\lambda_i<0} \lambda_i^2.\] The smaller value, $s(G)=\min\{s^+(G), s^-(G)\}$ is called…

For a given simple graph \( G \), the \( p \)-energy of \( G \), denoted by \( \mathcal{E}_p(G) \), is defined as the sum of the \( p \)-th power of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Let \( S_n \) denote the…

Gutman and Wagner proposed the concept of matching energy (ME) and pointed out that the chemical applications of ME go back to the 1970s. Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$ and $\mu_1,\mu_2,\ldots,\mu_n$ be the roots of its matching…

The energy $E(G)$ of a graph $G$ is defined as the sum of the absolute values of its eigenvalues. A graph $G$ of order $n$ is said to be hypoenergetic if $E(G)<n$. Majstorovi\'{c} et al. conjectured that complete bipartite graph $K_{2,3}$…

We generalise to signed graphs a classical result of Tutte [Canad. J. Math. 8 (1956), 13--28] stating that every integer flow can be expressed as a sum of characteristic flows of circuits. In our generalisation, the r\^ole of circuits is…

A colouring of a digraph as defined by Erdos and Neumann-Lara in 1980 is a vertex-colouring such that no monochromatic directed cycles exist. The minimal number of colours required for such a colouring of a loopless digraph is defined to be…
