We consider the eigenvalue problem for the case where the input matrix is symmetric and its entries perturb in some given intervals. We present a characterization of some of the exact boundary points, which allows us to introduce an inner…

We consider the signless $p$-Laplacian of a graph, a generalisation of the usual signless Laplacian (the case $p=2$). We show a Perron-Frobenius property and basic inequalites for the largest eigenvalue and provide upper and lower bounds…

In this article, we establish some bounds involving the largest two distance Pareto eigenvalues of a connected graph. Also we characterize all possible values for smallest six distance Pareto eigenvalues of a connected graph.

We derive bounds on the size of an independent set based on eigenvalues. This generalizes a result due to Delsarte and Hoffman. We use this to obtain new bounds on the independence number of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graphs. We investigate…

Jiang, Tidor, Yao, Zhang, and Zhao recently showed that connected bounded degree graphs have sublinear second eigenvalue multiplicity (always referring to the adjacency matrix). This result was a key step in the solution to the problem of…

On a compact metric graph, we consider the spectrum of the Laplacian defined with a mix of standard and Dirichlet vertex conditions. A Cheeger-type lower bound on the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ is established, with a constant that depends…

Sharp bounds on the least eigenvalue of an arbitrary graph are presented. Necessary and sufficient (just sufficient) conditions for the lower (upper) bound to be attained are deduced using edge clique partitions. As an application, we prove…

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a graph. We define matrices $M(G; \alpha, \beta)$as $\alpha D + \beta A$, where $\alpha$, $\beta$ are real numbers such that $(\alpha, \beta) \neq (0, 0)$ and $D$ and $A$ are the diagonal matrix and adjacency matrix of…

We offer a new method for proving that the maximal eigenvalue of the normalized graph Laplacian of a graph with $n$ vertices is at least $\frac{n+1}{n-1}$ provided the graph is not complete and that equality is attained if and only if the…

For every real $0\leq \alpha \leq 1$, Nikiforov defined the $A_{\alpha}$-matrix of a graph $G$ as $A_{\alpha}(G)=\alpha D(G)+(1-\alpha)A(G)$, where $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ are the adjacency matrix and the degree diagonal matrix of a graph $G$,…
