A cograph is a simple graph which contains no path on 4 vertices as an induced subgraph. The vicinal preorder on the vertex set of a graph is defined in terms of inclusions among the neighborhoods of vertices. The minimum number of chains…

A cograph is a simple graph that contains no induced path on four vertices. In this paper, we consider $\mathcal{C}$-graphs, which are a specific class of cographs, defined as $$\overline{\overline{\overline{K_{\alpha_{1}}}\cup…

A graph is called a chain graph if it is bipartite and the neighborhoods of the vertices in each color class form a chain with respect to inclusion. Alazemi, Andeli\'c and Simi\'c conjectured that no chain graph shares a non-zero…

Characterized are all simple undirected graphs $G$ such that any real symmetric matrix that has graph $G$ has no eigenvalues of multiplicity more than 2. All such graphs are partial 2-trees (and this follows from a result for rather general…

A graph is called integral if all the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix are integers. In this paper, we show a cograph that has a balanced cotree $T_{G}(a_{1},\ldots,a_{r-1},0|0,\ldots,0,a_{r})$ is integral computing its spectrum. As an…

A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is called hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We denote by $\mathcal{G}^\mathrm{apex}$ the class of graphs $G$ that contain a vertex $v$ such that $G-v$ is in $\mathcal{G}$. We prove…

Two emerging topics in graph theory are the study of cospectral vertices of a graph, and the study of isospectral reductions of graphs. In this paper, we prove a fundamental relationship between these two areas, which is that two vertices…

Motivated by the linear time algorithm that locates the eigenvalues of a cograph G [10], we investigate the multiplicity of eigenvalue for \lambda \neq -1,0. For cographs with balanced cotrees we determine explicitly the highest value for…

An eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph is said to be \emph{main} if the all-1 vector is not orthogonal to the associated eigenspace. In this work, we approach the main eigenvalues of some graphs. The graphs with exactly two main…

Let $n$ be any positive integer, the friendship graph $F_n$ consist of $n$ edge-disjoint triangles that all of them meeting in one vertex. A graph $G$ is called cospectral with a graph $H$ if their adjacency matrices have the same…

Let $\mathcal{G}(4,2)$ be the set of connected regular graphs with four distinct eigenvalues in which exactly two eigenvalues are simple, $\mathcal{G}(4,2,-1)$ (resp. $\mathcal{G}(4,2,0)$) the set of graphs belonging to $\mathcal{G}(4,2)$…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the set of simple graphs (or multigraphs) $G$ such that for each $G \in \mathcal{G}$ there exists at least two non-empty disjoint proper subsets $V_{1},V_{2}\subseteq V(G)$ satisfying $V(G)\setminus(V_{1} \cup…

Assumed to be undirected, simple, and connected are all of the graphs in this study, and adjacency matrix $A$ serves as the associated matrix. In this paper we show that it is possible to relate a creation sequence for a type of cographs…

The minimum number of distinct eigenvalues, taken over all real symmetric matrices compatible with a given graph $G$, is denoted by $q(G)$. Using other parameters related to $G$, bounds for $q(G)$ are proven and then applied to deduce…

Recently the collection $\cal G$ of all signed graphs for which the adjacency matrix has all but at most two eigenvalues equal to $\pm 1$ has been determined. Here we investigate $\cal G$ for cospectral pairs, and for signed graphs…

Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph is $(H_1,\,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. For a positive integer $t$, $P_t$ is the chordless path on $t$ vertices. A paraglider is the graph that…

A graph is a cograph if it does not contain a 4-vertex path as an induced subgraph. An $(s, k)$-polar partition of a graph $G$ is a partition $(A, B)$ of its vertex set such that $A$ induces a complete multipartite graph with at most $s$…

Let $K_4^+$ be the 5-vertex graph obtained from $K_4$, the complete graph on four vertices, by subdividing one edge precisely once (i.e. by replacing one edge by a path on three vertices). We prove that if the chromatic number of some graph…

A graph is a cograph if it is $P_4$-free. A $k$-polar partition of a graph $G$ is a partition of the set of vertices of $G$ into parts $A$ and $B$ such that the subgraph induced by $A$ is a complete multipartite graph with at most $k$…

We prove that for every tree $T$ which is not an edge, for almost every graph $G$ which does not contain $T$ as an induced subgraph, $V(G)$ has a partition into $\alpha(T)-1$ parts certifying this fact. Each part induces a graph which is…
