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…

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…

For a simple graph $G=(V,E)$ with eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $\lambda_{1}\geq\lambda_{2}\geq\cdots\geq\lambda_{n}$, the energy of the graph is defined by $E(G)=\sum_{j=1}^{n}|\lambda_{j}|$. Myriads of papers have been published in…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with adjacency matrix $A(G)$. The \textit{energy} of graph $G$, denoted by $\mathcal{E}(G)$, is defined as the sum of absolute value of eigenvalues of $A(G)$. It was conjectured that if $A(G)$ is…

The energy of a graph was introduced by {\sc Gutman} in 1978 as the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. We study the energy of integral circulant graphs, also called gcd graphs, which can be characterized…

Given a graph $M,$ path eigenvalues are eigenvalues of its path matrix. The path energy of a simple graph $M$ is equal to the sum of the absolute values of the path eigenvalues of the graph $M$ (Shikare et. al, 2018). We have discovered new…
