For a digraph D and three parameters x, y, z in {0,1,+,-} we define the digraph D^(x,y,z) and call it the (x,y,z)-transformation of D. We show that for every r-regular digraph D the adjacency characteristic polynomial A(t, D^(x,y,z)) of…

It is known that a distance-regular graph with valency $k$ at least three admits at most two Q-polynomial structures. % In this note we show that all distance-regular graphs with diameter four and valency at least three admitting two…

In this paper, all graphs whose adjacency matrix has at most two eigenvalues (multiplicities included) different from $2$ and $-1$ are determined. These graphs conclude a class of generalized friendship graphs $F_{t,r,k}, $ which is the…

Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The {\em domination polynomial} of $G$ is the polynomial ${D(G, x)=\sum_{i=0}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. Let $n$ be any positive integer…

Mutual visibility in graphs provides a framework for analysing how vertices can observe one another along shortest paths free of internal obstructions. The visibility polynomial, which enumerates mutual-visibility sets of all orders, has…

In this paper, we analyse spectral properties of Seidel matrix (denoted by $S$) of connected threshold graphs. We compute the characteristic polynomial and determinant of Seidel matrix of threshold graphs. We derive formulas for the…

The graphs with all equal negative or positive eigenvalues are special kind in the spectral graph theory. In this article, several iterated line graphs $\mathcal{L}^k(G)$ with all equal negative eigenvalues $-2$ are characterized for $k\ge…

Random intersection graphs are characterized by three parameters: $n$, $m$ and $p$, where $n$ is the number of vertices, $m$ is the number of objects, and $p$ is the probability that a given object is associated with a given vertex. Two…

In digital signal processing, shift-invariant filters can be represented as a polynomial expansion of a shift operation,that is, the Z-transform representation. When extended to graph signal processing (GSP), this would mean that a…

We introduce the concept of Almost-Companion Matrix (ACM) by relaxing the non-derogatory property of the standard Companion Matrix (CM). That is, we define an ACM as a matrix whose characteristic polynomial coincides with a given monic and…

In this paper we introduce a family of planar, modular and self-similar graphs which have small-world and scale-free properties. The main parameters of this family are comparable to those of networks associated to complex systems, and…

In this paper, the association scheme defined on the flags of a finite generalized quadrangle is considered. All possible fusions of this scheme are listed, and a full description for those of classes 2 and 3 is given. Furthermore, it is…

Aaronson and Ambainis (2009) and Chailloux (2018) showed that fully symmetric (partial) functions do not admit exponential quantum query speedups. This raises a natural question: how symmetric must a function be before it cannot exhibit a…

We define and study the statistical models in exponential family form whose sufficient statistics are the degree distributions and the bi-degree distributions of undirected labelled simple graphs. Graphs that are constrained by the joint…

In this paper, we give a method to construct non-symmetric association schemes of class $3$ from non-symmetric association schemes of class $2$. This construction is a non-symmetric analogue of the construction of Taylor graphs as an…

Graphs can be associated with a matrix according to some rule and we can find the spectrum of a graph with respect to that matrix. Two graphs are cospectral if they have the same spectrum. Constructions of cospectral graphs help us…

We show that the coefficients of the representing polynomial of any monotone Boolean function are the values of the M\"obius function of an atomistic lattice related to this function. Using this we determine the representing polynomial of…

It is a well-known fact that a graph of diameter $d$ has at least $d+1$ eigenvalues. Let us call a graph \emph{$d$-extremal} if it has diameter $d$ and exactly $d+1$ eigenvalues. Such graphs have been intensively studied by various authors.…

Let $G$ be a graph with order $n$ and adjacency matrix $\mathbf{A}(G)$. The adjacency polynomial of $G$ is defined as $\phi(G;\lambda) =det(\lambda\mathbf{I}-\mathbf{A}(G))=\sum_{i=0}^n\mathbf{a_i}(G)\lambda^{n-i}$. Hereafter,…

As a vital link between group theory and graph theory, Cayley graphs provide a geometric framework for encoding algebraic structures. This study explores the properties of Cayley graphs derived from cyclic groups whose order is the square…
