Let $W(D_n)$ denote the walk matrix of the Dynkin graph $D_n$. We prove that the Smith normal form of $W(D_n)$ is $$\textup{diag}[\underbrace{1,1,\ldots,1}_{\frac{n}{2}-1},\underbrace{2,2,\ldots,2}_{\frac{n}{2}-1},0,0]$$ when $n\equiv…

In this paper, we give the rank of the walk matrix of the Dynkin graph $A_n$, and prove that its Smith normal form is $$\diag(\underbrace{1,\ldots,1}_{\lceil\frac{n}{2}\rceil},0,\ldots,0).$$

In this paper, we give an explicit formula for the rank of the $Q$-walk matrix of the Dynkin graph $A_n$. Moreover, we prove that its Smith normal form is $$ \mathrm{diag}\left( \underset{r=\lceil \frac{n}{2}…

Spectral characterization of graphs is an important topic in spectral graph theory, which has received a lot of attention from researchers in recent years. It is generally very hard to show a given graph to be determined by its spectrum.…

In this paper, we provide an explicit formula for the rank of the walk matrix of the extended Dynkin graph $\tilde{D}_n$.

The walk matrix of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with adjacency matrix $A$, denoted by $W(G)$, is $[e,Ae,\ldots,A^{n-1}e]$, where $e$ is the all-ones vector. Let $G\circ P_m$ be the rooted product of $G$ and a rooted path $P_m$ (taking an…

A permutation $\boldsymbol w$ gives rise to a graph $G_{\boldsymbol w}$; the vertices of $G_{\boldsymbol w}$ are the letters in the permutation and the edges of $G_{\boldsymbol w}$ are the inversions of $\boldsymbol w$. We find that the…

A fundamental and challenging problem in spectral graph theory is to characterize which graphs are uniquely determined by their spectra. In Wang [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 122 (2017): 438-451], the author proved that an $n$-vertex graph…

Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph with adjacency matrix $A$, and $W=[e,Ae,\ldots,A^{n-1}e]$ be the walk matrix of $G$, where $e$ is the all-one vector. In Wang [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B, 122 (2017): 438-451], the author showed that any graph…

Let ${\cal G}=(G,w)$ be a weighted simple finite connected graph, that is, let $G$ be a simple finite connected graph endowed with a function $w$ from the set of the edges of $G$ to the set of real numbers. For any subgraph $G'$ of $G$, we…

Consider $n$ points distributed uniformly in $[0,1]^d$. Form a graph by connecting two points if their mutual distance is no greater than $r(n)$. This gives a random geometric graph, $\gnrn$, which is connected for appropriate $r(n)$. We…

We give a criterion for a Dynkin diagram, equivalently a generalized Cartan matrix, to be symmetrizable. This criterion is easily checked on the Dynkin diagram. We obtain a simple proof that the maximal rank of a Dynkin diagram of compact…

Let G be a graph with set of vertices 1,...,n and adjacency matrix A of size nxn. Let d(i,j)=d, we say that f_d:N->N is a d-function on G if for every pair of vertices i,j and k>=d, we have a_ij^(k)=f_d(k). If this function f_d exists on G…

In this article, we study a simple random walk on a decorated Galton-Watson tree, obtained from a Galton-Watson tree by replacing each vertex of degree $n$ with an independent copy of a graph $G_n$ and gluing the inserted graphs along the…

We investigate the Drazin invertibility of adjacency matrices associated with a class of oriented graphs known as oriented Dutch windmill graphs. By analyzing walks of prescribed lengths and exploiting the structure of the minimal…

For an $n$-vertex graph $G$, the walk matrix of $G$, denoted by $W(G)$, is the matrix $[e,A(G)e,\ldots,(A(G))^{n-1}e]$, where $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$ and $e$ is the all-ones vector. For two integers $m$ and $\ell$ with $1\le…

Consider d uniformly random permutation matrices on n labels. Consider the sum of these matrices along with their transposes. The total can be interpreted as the adjacency matrix of a random regular graph of degree 2d on n vertices. We…

A Steinhaus matrix is a binary square matrix of size $n$ which is symmetric, with diagonal of zeros, and whose upper-triangular coefficients satisfy $a_{i,j}=a_{i-1,j-1}+a_{i-1,j}$ for all $2\leq i<j\leq n$. Steinhaus matrices are…

Let $W_n$ denote the wheel graph having $n$-vertices. If $i$ and $j$ are any two vertices of $W_n$, define \[d_{ij}:= \begin{cases} 0 & \mbox{if}~i=j \\ 1 & \mbox{if}~i~ \mbox{and} ~j~ \mbox{are adjacent} \\ 2 & \mbox{else}. \end{cases}\]…

Let $d$ be a fixed large integer. For any $n$ larger than $d$, let $A_n$ be the adjacency matrix of the random directed $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, with the uniform distribution. We show that $A_n$ has rank at least $n-1$ with…
