The min-rank of a digraph was shown by Bar-Yossef et al. (2006) to represent the length of an optimal scalar linear solution of the corresponding instance of the Index Coding with Side Information (ICSI) problem. In this work, the graphs…

We give a bound on the spectral radius of subgraphs of regular graphs with given order and diameter. We give a lower bound on the smallest eigenvalue of a nonbipartite regular graph of given order and diameter.

A graph is said to be $H$-free if it does not contain a subgraph isomorphic to $H$. The fish graph, denoted by $H(4, 3)$, is a $6-$vertex graph obtained from a cycle of length $4$ and a triangle by sharing a common vertex. Earlier it is…

Let SPEX$_\mathcal{P}(n,F)$ and SPEX$_\mathcal{OP}(n,F)$ denote the sets of graphs with the maximum spectral radius over all $n$-vertex $F$-free planar and outerplanar graphs, respectively. Define $tP_l$ as a linear forest of $t$…

Determining the maximum number of edges under degree and matching number constraints have been solved for general graphs by Chv\'{a}tal and Hanson (1976), and by Balachandran and Khare (2009). It follows from the structure of those extremal…

In this paper we determine the unique graph with minimum distance spectral radius among all connected graphs of fixed order and given edge connectivity.

Given a graph $H$, the extremal number $\mathrm{ex}(n,H)$ is the largest number of edges in an $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices. We make progress on a number of conjectures about the extremal number of bipartite graphs. First, writing…

Let $\mathcal T (n, k)$ be the set of the $k$-uniform supertrees with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, where $k\geq 3$, $n\geq 5$ and $m=\frac{n-1}{k-1}$. % Let $m$ be the number of the edges of the supertrees in $\mathcal T (n, k)$, where…

In this paper we show how the $\alpha$-spectral radius changes under the edge grafting operations on connected $k$-uniform hypergraphs. We characterize the extremal hypertree for $\alpha$-spectral radius among $k$-uniform non-caterpillar…

It is well-known that eigenvalues of graphs can be used to describe structural properties and parameters of graphs. A theorem of Nosal states that if $G$ is a triangle-free graph with $m$ edges, then $\lambda (G)\le \sqrt{m}$, equality…

We give variants of the Krein bound and the absolute bound for graphs with a spectrum similar to that of a strongly regular graph. In particular, we investigate what we call approximately strongly regular graphs. We apply our results to…

We analyze graphs attaining the extreme values of various spectral indices in the class of all simple connected graphs, as well as in the class of graphs which are not complete multipartite graphs. We also present results on density of…

For a $hypergraph$ $\mathcal{G}=(V, E)$ with a nonempty vertex set $V=V(\mathcal{G})$ and an edge set $E=E(\mathcal{G})$, its $adjacency$ $matrix$ $\mathcal {A}_{\mathcal{G}}=[(\mathcal {A}_{\mathcal{G}})_{ij}]$ is defined as $(\mathcal…

A graph is sad to be $H$-free if it does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. Let $H(k,3)$ be the graph formed by taking a cycle of length $k$ and a triangle on a common vertex. Li, Lu and Peng [Discrete Math. 346 (2023) 113680] proved that if…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\lambda(G)$ be the spectral radius of $G$. A previous result due to Nikiforov [Linear Algebra Appl., 2009] in spectral graph theory asserted that every graph $G$ on $m\geq 10$ edges contains a 4-cycle if…

For a graph $H$, the {\em extremal number} $ex(n,H)$ is the maximum number of edges in a graph of order $n$ not containing a subgraph isomorphic to $H$. Let $\delta(H)>0$ and $\Delta(H)$ denote the minimum degree and maximum degree of $H$,…

The Brualdi-Solheid problem asks which graph achieves the extremal (maximum or minimum) spectral radius for a given class of graphs. This paper addresses the Brualdi-Solheid problem for \( \mathcal{G}_{n,\beta} \), the family of graphs with…

Given a family of graphs $\mathcal{H}$, the extremal number $\textrm{ex}(n, \mathcal{H})$ is the largest $m$ for which there exists a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges containing no graph from the family $\mathcal{H}$ as a subgraph. We…

This survey concerns regular graphs that are extremal with respect to the number of independent sets, and more generally, graph homomorphisms. More precisely, in the family of of $d$-regular graphs, which graph $G$ maximizes/minimizes the…
