In this note we give a new upper bound for the Laplacian eigenvalues of an unweighted graph. Let $G$ be a simple graph on $n$ vertices. Let $d_{m}(G)$ and $\lambda_{m+1}(G)$ be the $m$-th smallest degree of $G$ and the $m+1$-th smallest…

Let $G$ be a connected uniform hypergraphs with maximum degree $\Delta$, spectral radius $\lambda$ and minimum H-eigenvalue $\mu$. In this paper, we give some lower bounds for $\Delta-\lambda$, which extend the result of [S.M. Cioab\u{a},…

We study the nodal count of the so-called bi-dendral graphs and show that it exhibits an anomaly: the nodal surplus is never equal to 0 or $\beta$, the first Betti number of the graph. According to the nodal-magnetic theorem, this means…

The Hermitian eigenvalue problem asks for the possible eigenvalues of a sum of Hermitian matrices given the eigenvalues of the summands. This is a problem about the Lie algebra of the maximal compact subgroup of $G=\operatorname{SL}(n)$ .…

A well known upper bound for the spectral radius of a graph, due to Hong, is that $\mu_1^2 \le 2m - n + 1$. It is conjectured that for connected graphs $n - 1 \le s^+ \le 2m - n + 1$, where $s^+$ denotes the sum of the squares of the…

For a graph G, M(G) denotes the maximum multiplicity occurring of an eigenvalue of a symmetric matrix whose zero-nonzero pattern is given by edges of G. We introduce two combinatorial graph parameters T^-(G) and T^+(G) that give a lower and…

Some recent results on graph eigenvalues are improved. In particular, among all graphs of given order with no cliques of order $(r+1)$ the $r$-partite Turan graph has maximal spectral radius.
