A propeller graph is obtained from an $\infty$-graph by attaching a path to the vertex of degree four, where an $\infty$-graph consists of two cycles with precisely one common vertex. In this paper, we prove that all propeller graphs are…

A graph is determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum if there is no other non-isomorphic graph sharing the same signless Laplacian spectrum. Let $C_l$, $P_l$, $K_l$ and $K_{s,l-s}$ be the cycle, the path, the complete graph and the…

A graph $G$ is said to be determined by the spectrum of its Laplacian matrix (DLS) if every graph with the same spectrum is isomorphic to $G$. van Dam and Haemers (2003) conjectured that almost all graphs have this property, but that is…

A graph $G$ is said to be \emph{determined by its spectrum} if any graph having the same spectrum as $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. Let $K_n \setminus P_{\ell}$ be the graph obtained from $K_n$ by removing edges of $P_\ell$, where $P_\ell$ is a…

This paper studies the Laplacian spectral characterization of some graph products. We consider a class of connected graphs: $\mathscr{G}={G : |EG|\leq|VG|+1}$, and characterize all graphs $G\in\mathscr{G}$ such that the products $G\times…
