In this paper, we initiate the study of the inverse eigenvalue problem for probe graphs. A probe graph is a graph whose vertices are partitioned into probe vertices and non-probe vertices such that the non-probe vertices form an independent…

Let $G_w$ be a weighted graph. The number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues in the spectrum of $G_w$ are called positive inertia index, negative inertia index and nullity of $G_w$, and denoted by $i_{+}(G_w)$, $i_{-}(G_w)$,…

Extending the work of Godsil and others, we investigate the notion of the inverse of a graph (specifically, of bipartite graphs with a unique perfect matching). We provide a concise necessary and sufficient condition for the invertibility…

Let $t$ be a positive integer, and let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ with $n\geq t+2$. A graph $G$ is said to be $\frac{1}{t}$-tough if $|S|\geq\frac{1}{t}c(G-S)$ for every subset $S$ of $V(G)$ with $c(G-S)\geq2$, where $c(G-S)$ is…

Given a graph G of order n and size m, let s(G)= sum|d(u)-2m/n|, where the sum is taken over all vertices u of G. We investigate upper and lower bounds on eigenvalues of G in terms of s(G).

The spectral properties of signed directed graphs, which may be naturally obtained by assigning a sign to each edge of a directed graph, have received substantially less attention than those of their undirected and/or unsigned counterparts.…

This paper examines the spectral characterizations of oriented graphs. Let $\Sigma$ be an $n$-vertex oriented graph with skew-adjacency matrix $S$. Previous research mainly focused on self-converse oriented graphs, proposing arithmetic…

A metrized graph is a compact singular 1-manifold endowed with a metric. A given metrized graph can be modelled by a family of weighted combinatorial graphs. If one chooses a sequence of models from this family such that the vertices become…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $w: V(G) \to \mathbb{R}$ be a weight function on the vertices of $G$. For every subset $X$ of $V(G)$, let $w(X)=\sum_{v \in X} w(v).$ A non-empty subset $S \subset V(G)$ is a weighted safe set of $(G,w)$ if, for…

To a given nonsingular triangular matrix A with entries from a ring, we associate a weighted bipartite graph G(A) and give a combinatorial description of the inverse of A by employing paths in G(A). Under a certain condition, nonsingular…

An eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph is said to be \emph{main} if the all-1 vector is not orthogonal to the associated eigenspace. In this work, we approach the main eigenvalues of some graphs. The graphs with exactly two main…

All graphs considered are simple and undirected. The Inverse Eigenvalue Problem of a Graph $G$ (IEP-G) aims to find all possible spectra for matrices whose $(i,j)-$entry, for $i\neq j$, is nonzero precisely when $i$ is adjacent to $j$. A…

Networks are often studied using the eigenvalues of their adjacency matrix, a powerful mathematical tool with a wide range of applications. Since in real systems the exact graph structure is not known, researchers resort to random graphs to…

In this note we elaborate on some notions of surface area for discrete graphs which are closely related to the inverse degree. These notions then naturally lead to associated connectivity measures of graphs and to the definition of a…

Directed graphs have long been used to gain understanding of the structure of semigroups, and recently the structure of directed graph semigroups has been investigated resulting in a characterization theorem and an analog of Fruct's…
