Fix $m \in \mathbb N$. A new generalization of the $H$-join operation of a family of graphs $\{G_1, G_2, \dots, G_k\}$ constrained by indexing maps $I_1,I_2,\dots,I_k$ is introduced as $H_m$-join of graphs, where the maps $I_i:V(G_i)$ to…

We consider the following feasibility problem: given an integer $n \geq 1$ and an integer $m$ such that $0 \leq m \leq \binom{n}{2}$, does there exist a line graph $L = L(G)$ with exactly $n$ vertices and $m$ edges ? We say that a pair…

The independence complex of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the simplicial complex $I(G)$ on vertex set $V$ whose simplices are the independent sets in $G$. We present new lower bounds on the eigenvalues of the $k$-dimensional Laplacian $L_k(I(G))$ in…
