A complex unit gain graph is a simple graph in which each orientation of an edge is given a complex number with modulus 1 and its inverse is assigned to the opposite orientation of the edge. In this article, first we establish bounds for…

Let $G$ be a connected graph and let $T$ be a spanning tree of $G$. A partial orientation $\sigma$ of $G$ respect to $T$ is an orientation of the edges of $G$ except those edges of $T$, the resulting graph associated with which is denoted…

We show various upper bounds for the order of a digraph (or a mixed graph) whose Hermitian adjacency matrix has an eigenspace of prescribed codimension. In particular, this generalizes the so-called absolute bound for (simple) graphs first…

In 2000, Enomoto and Ota conjectured that if a graph $G$ satisfies $\sigma_{2}(G) \geq n + k - 1$, then for any set of $k$ vertices $v_{1}, \dots, v_{k}$ and for any positive integers $n_{1}, \dots, n_{k}$ with $\sum n_{i} = |G|$, there…

Let $\Gamma$ denote an undirected, connected, regular graph with vertex set $X$, adjacency matrix $A$, and ${d+1}$ distinct eigenvalues. Let ${\mathcal A}={\mathcal A}(\Gamma)$ denote the subalgebra of Mat$_X({\mathbb C})$ generated by $A$.…

The oriented chromatic polynomial of a oriented graph outputs the number of oriented $k$-colourings for any input $k$. We fully classify those oriented graphs for which the oriented graph has the same chromatic polynomial as the underlying…

The arc graph $\delta(G)$ of a digraph $G$ is the digraph with the set of arcs of $G$ as vertex-set, where the arcs of $\delta(G)$ join consecutive arcs of $G$. In 1981, Poljak and R\"{o}dl characterised the chromatic number of $\delta(G)$…

The adjacency-diametrical matrix (AD matrix) of a connected graph $G$ with diameter $d$, denoted by $AD(G)$, is the matrix indexed by the vertices of $G$ in which the $(i,j)$-entry of $AD(G)$ is $1$ if $d_G(v_i,v_j)=1$, is $d$ if…

This paper examines the spectral characterizations of oriented graphs. Let $\Sigma$ be an $n$-vertex oriented graph with skew-adjacency matrix $S$. Previous research mainly focused on self-converse oriented graphs, proposing arithmetic…

We review the properties of eigenvectors for the graph Laplacian matrix, aiming at predicting a specific eigenvalue/vector from the geometry of the graph. After considering classical graphs for which the spectrum is known, we focus on…

Operators are induced on fermion and zeon algebras by the action of adjacency matrices and combinatorial Laplacians on the vector spaces spanned by the graph's vertices. Properties of the algebras automatically give information about the…

In the current work we are concerned with sequences of graphs having a grid geometry, with a uniform local structure in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 1$. When $\Omega=[0,1]$, such graphs include the standard Toeplitz…

Let $H$ and $G$ be graphs such that $H$ has at least 3 vertices and is connected. The $H$-line graph of $G$, denoted by $HL(G)$, is that graph whose vertices are the edges of $G$ and where two vertices of $HL(G)$ are adjacent if they are…

We show that if a graph $G$ has average degree $\bar d \geq 4$, then the Ihara zeta function of $G$ is edge-reconstructible. We prove some general spectral properties of the edge adjacency operator $T$: it is symmetric for an indefinite…

We develop the theory of linear evolution equations associated with the adjacency matrix of a graph, focusing in particular on infinite graphs of two kinds: uniformly locally finite graphs as well as locally finite line graphs. We discuss…

The Hoffman program with respect to any real or complex square matrix $M$ associated to a graph $G$ stems from A. J. Hoffman's pioneering work on the limit points for the spectral radius of adjacency matrices of graphs less than…

Let $f:S^2\to S^2$ be an orientation-preserving branched covering map of degree $d\geq 2$, and let $\Sigma$ be an oriented Jordan curve passing through the critical values of $f$. Then $\Gamma:=f^{-1}(\Sigma)$ is an oriented graph on the…

For an oriented graph $G$, the oriented discrepancy problem concerns the existence of a spanning subgraph of $G$ with a large imbalance between its forward and backward edge orientations. Freschi and Lo proved the Dirac-type Hamilton cycle…

Let $G$ be a simple connected graph. We use $n(G)$, $p(G)$, and $\eta(G)$ to denote the number of negative eigenvalues, positive eigenvalues, and zero eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ of $G$, respectively. In this paper, we prove…
