For $\alpha \in [0,1]$, the $A_{\alpha}$-matrix of a graph $G$ is defined by $A_{\alpha}(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1- \alpha) A(G)$, where $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ denote the adjacency matrix and the diagonal degree matrix of $G$, respectively. In this…

We show that the twisted Grassmann graphs introduced by Van Dam and Koolen are obtained by Godsil-McKay switching applied to the Grassmann graphs. The partition for the switching is constructed by a polarity of a hyperplane.

We study the following classes of beyond-planar graphs: 1-planar, IC-planar, and NIC-planar graphs. These are the graphs that admit a 1-planar, IC-planar, and NIC-planar drawing, respectively. A drawing of a graph is 1-planar if every edge…

We give a method to construct cospectral graphs for the normalized Laplacian by a local modification in some graphs with special structure. Namely, under some simple assumptions, we can replace a small bipartite graph with a cospectral mate…

The paper is concerned with the number of open gaps in spectra of periodic quantum graphs. The well-known conjecture by Bethe and Sommerfeld (1933) says that the number of open spectral gaps for a system periodic in more than one direction…

A class of random graphs is introduced and studied. The graphs are constructed in an algorithmic way from five motifs which were found in [Milo R., Shen-Orr S., Itzkovitz S., Kashtan N., Chklovskii D., Alon U., Science, 2002, 298, 824-827].…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with adjacency matrix $A$, and $W=[e,Ae,\ldots,A^{n-1}e]$ be the walk matrix of $G$, where $e$ is the all-one vector. In Wang [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 122 (2017): 438-451], the author showed that any graph…
