Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V(G) = \{v_1 ,v_2 ,\cdots ,v_n\}$. The Harary matrix $RD(G)$ of $G$, which is initially called the reciprocal distance matrix, is an $n \times n$ matrix whose $(i,j)$-entry is equal to…

A complex unit hypergraph is a hypergraph where each vertex-edge incidence is given a complex unit label. We define the adjacency, incidence, Kirchoff Laplacian and normalized Laplacian of a complex unit hypergraph and study each of them.…

A signed graph is one that features two types of edges: positive and negative. Balanced signed graphs are those in which all cycles contain an even number of positive edges. In the adjacency matrix of a signed graph, entries can be $0$,…

The \emph{generalized reciprocal distance matrix} of a graph $\mathscr{G}$, denoted by $RD_\alpha(\mathscr{G})$, is defined as $RD_\alpha(\mathscr{G})=\alpha\,RT_r(\mathscr{G})+(1-\alpha)\,RD(\mathscr{G}), \, \alpha\in[0,1],$ where…

The distance matrix of a graph $G$ is the matrix containing the pairwise distances between vertices. The distance eigenvalues of $G$ are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix and they form the distance spectrum of $G$. We determine the…

We introduce a switching operation, inspired by the Godsil-McKay switching, in order to obtain pairs of $G$-cospectral gain graphs, that are gain graphs cospectral with respect to every representation of the gain group $G$. For instance,…

A connected and nonempty graph A is defined as generalized t-edge distance-balanced, while for each edge f={\alpha}\{beta} the number of edges nearer to {\alpha} than \{beta} are equal to t-times of edges nearer to \{beta} than to {\alpha},…

Frank Harary introduced the concepts of sum and integral sum graphs. A graph $G$ is a \textit{sum graph} if the vertices of $G$ can be labeled with distinct positive integers so that $e = uv$ is an edge of $G$ if and only if the sum of the…
