In 2002, Nikiforov proved that for an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with clique number $\omega$ and edge number $m$, the spectral radius $\lambda(G)$ satisfies $\lambda (G) \leq \sqrt{2(1 - 1/\omega) m}$, which confirmed a conjecture implicitly…

Given a graph $G$, the adjacency matrix and degree diagonal matrix of $G$ are denoted by $A(G)$ and $D(G)$, respectively. In 2017, Nikiforov \cite{0007} proposed the $A_{\alpha}$-matrix: $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G),$ where…

We show that for any $\Delta \geq 3$, there is no bound computable from $(\varepsilon, r)$ on the size of a graph required to approximate a graph of maximum degree at most $\Delta$ up to $\varepsilon$ error in $r$-neighborhood statistics.…

Albertson defined the irregularity of a graph $G$ as $irr(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}|d_G(u)-d_G(v)|$. For a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, maximum degree $\Delta$, and $d=\left\lfloor \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta n-m}\right\rfloor$, we…

Distance covariance is a quantity to measure the dependence of two random vectors. We show that the original concept introduced and developed by Sz\'{e}kely, Rizzo and Bakirov can be embedded into a more general framework based on symmetric…

The Laplacian spread of a graph is the difference between the largest eigenvalue and the second-smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of the graph. We find that the class of strongly regular graphs attains the maximum of largest…

Let $\mathscr{G}_{n,\beta}$ be the set of graphs of order $n$ with given matching number $\beta$. Let $D(G)$ be the diagonal matrix of the degrees of the graph $G$ and $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of the graph $G$. The largest eigenvalue…

Let $G$ be a simple graph. The signless Laplacian spread of $G$ is defined as the maximum distance of pairs of its signless Laplacian eigenvalues. This paper establishes some new bounds, both lower and upper, for the signless Laplacian…
