An Introduction to the Theory of Graph Spectra: Spectral techniques

Distance spectra of graphs: A survey

In 1971, Graham and Pollack established a relationship between the number of negative eigenvalues of the distance matrix and the addressing problem in data communication systems. They also proved that the determinant of the distance matrix of a tree is a function of the number of vertices only. Since then several mathematicians were interested in studying the spectral properties of the distance matrix of a connected graph. Computing the distance characteristic polynomial and its coefficients was the first research subject of interest. Thereafter, the eigenvalues attracted much more attention. In the present paper, we report on the results related to the distance matrix of a graph and its spectral properties.

An Introduction to the Theory of Graph Spectra: Introduction

Let G be a graph and denote by Q(G)=D(G)+A(G),L(G)=D(G)-A(G) the sum and the difference between the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees and the adjacency matrix of G,respectively. In this paper,some properties of the matrix Q(G)are studied. At the same time,anecessary and sufficient condition for the equality of the spectrum of Q(G) and L(G) is given.

Some properties of the spectrum of graphs

In this paper, we give spectral conditions to guarantee the existence of two edge disjoint cycles and two cycles of the same length. These two results can be seen as spectral analogues of Erdős and Posa's size condition and Erdős' classic problem on non existence of two cycles of the same length. By using double leading eigenvectors skill, we further give spectral condition to guarantee the existence of $k$ edge disjoint triangles.

Spectral radius, edge-disjoint cycles and cycles of the same length

A spectral condition for the existence of a pentagon in non-bipartite graphs

We determine the maximum and minimum sizes of digraphs with a given clique numbers as well as the digraphs that attain these extremal sizes. The maximum and minimum transmissions of connected digraphs with given clique numbers are also determined.
