We study the dependence of the quantum graph Hamiltonian, its resolvent, and its spectrum on the vertex conditions and graph edge lengths. In particular, several results on the interlacing (bracketing) of the spectra of graphs with…

We obtain new bounds for the Laplacian spectral radius of a signed graph. Most of these new bounds have a dependence on edge sign, unlike previously known bounds, which only depend on the underlying structure of the graph. We then use some…

Let $B$ and $R$ be two simple graphs with vertex set $V$, and let $G(B,R)$ be the simple graph with vertex set $V$, in which two vertices are adjacent if they are adjacent in at least one of $B$ and $R$. For $X \subseteq V$, we denote by…

Let $G(n,k)$ be the class of clique trees on $n$ vertices and zero forcing number $k$, where $\left \lfloor \frac{n}{2} \right \rfloor + 1 \le k \le n-1$ and each block is a clique of size at least $3$. In this article, we proved the…

In this paper we investigate the hypergraphs whose spectral radii attain the maximum among all uniform hypergraphs with given number of edges. In particular we characterize the hypergraph(s) with maximum spectral radius over all unicyclic…

Consider a group $\mathbb{G}$ and construct its power graph, whose vertex set consists of the elements of $\mathbb{G}$. Two distinct vertices (elements) are adjacent in the graph if and only if one element can be expressed as an integral…

We determine the unique hypergraphs with maximum spectral radius among all connected $k$-uniform ($k\geq 3$) unicyclic hypergraphs with matching number at least $z$, and among all connected $k$-uniform ($k\geq 3$) unicyclic hypergraphs with…

We exhibit infinitely many examples of edge-regular graphs that have regular cliques and that are not strongly regular. This answers a question of Neumaier from 1981.

The spectral density of random graphs with topological constraints is analysed using the replica method. We consider graph ensembles featuring generalised degree-degree correlations, as well as those with a community structure. In each case…

We completely determine the spectrum of an $I$-graph, that is, the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. We apply our result to prove known characterizations of connectedness and bipartiteness in $I$-graphs by using an spectral approach.…

It is well-known that the spectral radius of a connected uniform hypergraph is an eigenvalue of the hypergraph. However, its algebraic multiplicity remains unknown. In this paper, we use the Poisson Formula and matching polynomials to…

We generalize the concept of token graphs to obtain supertoken graphs. In the latter case, there can be more than one token in a vertex. We formally define supertoken graphs and establish their basic properties. Moreover, we provide some…

Let $\mathcal{G}_{n, \beta^*}$ $(\mathcal{G}^*_{n,\beta^*})$ be the set of all (connected) graphs of order $n$ with fractional matching number $\beta^*$. In this paper, the graphs with maximal spectral radius in $\mathcal{G}_{n,\beta^*}$…

In this paper we establish some spectral conditions for a graph to be Hamilton-connected in terms of the spectral radius of the adjacency matrix or the signless Laplacian of the graph or its complement. For the existence of Hamiltonian…

This paper proposes a new algorithm for solving maximal cliques for simple undirected graphs using the theory of prime numbers. A novel approach using prime numbers is used to find cliques and ends with a discussion of the algorithm.

The ordinary generating function of the number of complete subgraphs (cliques) of $G$, denoted by $C(G,x)$, is called the The clique polynomial of the graph $G$. In this paper, we first introduce some \emph{clique} incidence matrices…

Let G be a graph of given order and mu(G) be the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. We give conditions on mu(G) that imply Hamiltonicity of G and of its complement.

Clique-width is a well-studied graph parameter. For graphs of bounded clique-width, many problems that are NP-hard in general can be polynomial-time solvable. The fact motivates several studies to investigate whether the clique-width of…

We consider several graphs classes defined in terms of conditions on cliques and stable sets, including CIS, split, equistable, and other related classes. We pursue a systematic study of the relations between them. As part of this study, we…

In this article we present the idea of clique ceiling numbers of the vertices of a given graph that has a universal vertex. We follow up with a polynomial-time algorithm to compute an upper bound for the clique number of such a graph using…
