Energy of a simple graph $G$, denoted by $\mathcal{E}(G)$, is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of $G$. Two graphs with the same order and energy are called equienergetic graphs. A graph $G$ with the property $G\cong…

Let G be a graph on n vertices. The Laplacian matrix of G, denoted by L(G), is defined as L(G) = D(G) - A(G), where A(G) is the adjacency matrix of G and D(G) is the diagonal matrix of the vertex degrees of G. A graph G is said to be…

A vertex $v \in V(G)$ is called $\lambda$-main if it belongs to a star set $X \subset V(G)$ of the eigenvalue $\lambda$ of a graph $G$ and this eigenvalue is main for the graph obtained from $G$ by deleting all the vertices in $X \setminus…

Let G be a graph of order $n$ with adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and diagonal matrix of degree $D(G)$. For every $\alpha \in [0,1]$, Nikiforov \cite{VN17} defined the matrix $A_\alpha(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1-\alpha)A(G)$. In this paper we present…

A vertex partition in which every part induces a 2-connected subgraph is called a 2-proper partition. This concept was introduced by Ferrara et al. in 2013, and Borozan et al. gave the best possible minimum degree condition for the…

All graphs considered are simple and undirected. The Inverse Eigenvalue Problem of a Graph $G$ (IEP-G) aims to find all possible spectra for matrices whose $(i,j)-$entry, for $i\neq j$, is nonzero precisely when $i$ is adjacent to $j$. A…

The QE constant of a finite connected graph $G$, denoted by $\mathrm{QEC}(G)$, is by definition the maximum of the quadratic function associated to the distance matrix on a certain sphere of codimension two. We prove that the QE constants…

For a graph $G$, its $k$-th power $G^k$ is constructed by placing an edge between two vertices if they are within distance $k$ of each other. The $k$-independence number $\alpha_k(G)$ is defined as the independence number of $G^k$. By using…

We investigate eigenvalues of the zero-divisor graph $\Gamma(R)$ of finite commutative rings $R$ and study the interplay between these eigenvalues, the ring-theoretic properties of $R$ and the graph-theoretic properties of $\Gamma(R)$. The…

A graph $G$ is said to be {\it $2$-distinguishable} if there is a labeling of the vertices with two labels so that only the trivial automorphism preserves the labels. The minimum size of a label class, over all 2-distinguishing labelings,…
