We study the equivalence between bipartiteness and symmetry of spectra of mixed graphs, for $\theta$-Hermitian adjacency matrices defined by an angle $\theta \in (0, \pi]$. We show that this equivalence holds when, for example, an angle…
Graph is an abstract representation commonly used to model networked systems and structure. In problems across various fields, including computer vision and pattern recognition, and neuroscience, graphs are often brought into comparison (a…
A realization of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a map $v\colon V\to\Bbb R^d$ that assigns to each vertex a point in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We study graph realizations from the perspective of representation theory (expressing certain…
We consider symmetric powers of a graph. In particular, we show that the spectra of the symmetric square of strongly regular graphs with the same parameters are equal. We also provide some bounds on the spectra of the symmetric squares of…
Complex unit gain graphs may exhibit various kinds of symmetry. In this work, we explore structural symmetry, spectral symmetry and sign-symmetry in such graphs, and their respective relations to one-another. Our main result is a…
The Hermitian adjacency matrices of digraphs based on the sixth root of unity were introduced in [B. Mohar, A new kind of Hermitian matrices for digraphs, Linear Alg. Appl. (2020)]. They appear to be the most natural choice for the spectral…
The paper gives a thorough introduction to spectra of digraphs via its Hermitian adjacency matrix. This matrix is indexed by the vertices of the digraph, and the entry corresponding to an arc from $x$ to $y$ is equal to the complex unity…
It is well known that a graph $G$ has a symmetric spectrum if and only if it is bipartite, a signed graph $\Gamma=(G,\sigma)$ has a symmetric spectrum if $G$ is bipartite. However, there exists a spectrally symmetric signed graph…
An invariant for cospectral graphs is a property shared by all cospectral graphs. In this paper, we establish three novel arithmetic invariants for cospectral graphs, revealing deep connections between spectral properties and combinatorial…
Here, the structural symmetries of a hypergraph are represented through equivalence relations on the vertex set of the hypergraph. A matrix associated with the hypergraph may not reflect a specific structural symmetry. In the context of a…
Graphs can be associated with a matrix according to some rule and we can find the spectrum of a graph with respect to that matrix. Two graphs are cospectral if they have the same spectrum. Constructions of cospectral graphs help us…
A conference matrix of order $n$ is an $n\times n$ matrix $C$ with diagonal entries $0$ and off-diagonal entries $\pm 1$ satisfying $CC^\top=(n-1)I$. If $C$ is symmetric, then $C$ has a symmetric spectrum $\Sigma$ (that is,…
A 1989 result of Duarte asserts that for a given tree T on n vertices, a fixed vertex i, and two sets of distinct real numbers L, M of sizes n and n-1, respectively, such that M strictly interlaces L, there is a real symmetric matrix A such…
Godsil (1985) defined a graph to be invertible if it has a non-singular adjacency matrix whose inverse is diagonally similar to a nonnegative integral matrix; the graph defined by the last matrix is then the inverse of the original graph.…
We construct infinitely many signed graphs having symmetric spectrum, by using the NEPS and rooted product of signed graphs. We also present a method for constructing large cospectral signed graphs. Although the obtained family contains…
We study the symmetry properties of the spectra of normalized Laplacians on signed graphs. We find a new machinery that generates symmetric spectra for signed graphs, which includes bipartiteness of unsigned graphs as a special case.…
We investigate connections between the symmetries (automorphisms) of a graph and its spectral properties. Whenever a graph has a symmetry, i.e. a nontrivial automorphism $\phi$, it is possible to use $\phi$ to decompose any matrix…
Using the method of spectral decimation and a modified version of Kirchhoffs Matrix-Tree Theorem, a closed form solution to the number of spanning trees on approximating graphs to a fully symmetric self-similar structure on a finitely…
Let $G$ be a graph with adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and degree matrix $D(G)$, and let $L_\mu(G):=A(G)-\mu D(G)$. Two graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ are called \emph{degree-similar} if there exists an invertible matrix $M$ such that $M^{-1} A(G_1) M…
Several researchers have recently explored various graph parameters that can or cannot be characterized by the spectrum of a matrix associated with a graph. In this paper we show that several NP-hard zero forcing numbers are not…
