We study properties of eigenvalues of a matrix associated with a randomly chosen partial automorphism of a regular rooted tree. We show that asymptotically, as the numbers of levels goes to infinity, the fraction of non-zero eigenvalues…

A drawing of a given (abstract) tree that is a minimum spanning tree of the vertex set is considered aesthetically pleasing. However, such a drawing can only exist if the tree has maximum degree at most 6. What can be said for trees of…

For a simple graph on $n$ vertices, any of its signless Laplacian eigenvalues is in the interval $[0, 2n-2]$. In this paper, we give relationships between the number of signless Laplacian eigenvalues in specific intervals in $[0, 2n-2]$ and…

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ with girth $g$. For $k=1,\dots,\min\{g-1, n-g\}$, let $n(G,k)$ be the number of Laplacian eigenvalues (counting multiplicities) of $G$ that fall inside the interval $[n-g-k+4,n]$. We prove that if…

On a finite connected metric graph, we establish upper bounds for the eigenvalues of the Laplacian. These bounds depend on the length, the Betti number, and the number of pendant vertices. For trees, these estimates are sharp. We also…
