Sharp upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of a nonnegative irreducible matrix and its applications

In this paper, we obtain the sharp upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of a nonnegative irreducible matrix. We also apply these bounds to various matrices associated with a graph or a digraph, obtain some new results or known results about various spectral radii, including the adjacency spectral radius, the signless Laplacian spectral radius, the distance spectral radius, the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of a graph or a digraph.     

Sharp bounds on distance spectral radius of graphs

Let D(G) denote the distance matrix of a connected graph G. The largest eigenvalue of D(G) is called the distance spectral radius of a graph G, denoted by ?(G). In this article, we give sharp upper and lower bounds for the distance spectral radius and characterize those graphs for which these bounds are best possible.     

Distance signless Laplacian spectral radius and Hamiltonian properties of graphs

In this paper, we establish a sufficient condition on distance signless Laplacian spectral radius for a bipartite graph to be Hamiltonian. We also give two sufficient conditions on distance signless Laplacian spectral radius for a graph to be Hamilton-connected and traceable from every vertex, respectively. Furthermore, we obtain a sufficient condition for a graph to be Hamiltonian in terms of the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of the complement of a graph G.     

On sharp bounds for spectral radius of nonnegative matrices

We give sharp upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of a nonnegative matrix with positive row sums using average 3-row sums, compare these bounds with the existing bounds using the average 2-row sums by examples, and apply them to the adjacency matrix and the signless Laplacian matrix of a digraph or a graph.     

Some results on Laplacian spectral radius of graphs with cut vertices

In this paper, we give some results on Laplacian spectral radius of graphs with cut vertices, and as their applications, we also determine the unique graph with the largest Laplacian spectral radius among all unicyclic graphs with n vertices and diameter d, 3?d?n−3.     

The signless Laplacian spectral radius of bicyclic graphs with prescribed degree sequences

In this paper, we characterize all extremal connected bicyclic graphs with the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius in the set of all connected bicyclic graphs with prescribed degree sequences. Moreover, the signless Laplacian majorization theorem is proved to be true for connected bicyclic graphs. As corollaries, all extremal connected bicyclic graphs having the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius are obtained in the set of all connected bicyclic graphs of order n (resp. all connected bicyclic graphs with a specified number of pendant vertices, and all connected bicyclic graphs with given maximum degree).     

Connectivity and minimal distance spectral radius of graphs

In this article, we study how the distance spectral radius behaves when the graph is perturbed by grafting edges. As applications, we also determine the graph with k cut vertices (respectively, k cut edges) with the minimal distance spectral radius.     

A sharp upper bound for the spectral radius of a nonnegative matrix and applications

We obtain a sharp upper bound for the spectral radius of a nonnegative matrix. This result is used to present upper bounds for the adjacency spectral radius, the Laplacian spectral radius, the signless Laplacian spectral radius, the distance spectral radius, the distance Laplacian spectral radius, the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of an undirected graph or a digraph. These results are new or generalize some known results.     

The signless Laplacian spectral radius of graphs with given degree sequences

In this paper, we investigate the properties of the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius in the set of all simple connected graphs with a given degree sequence. These results are used to characterize the unicyclic graphs that have the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius for a given unicyclic graphic degree sequence. Moreover, all extremal unicyclic graphs having the largest signless Laplacian spectral radius are obtained in the sets of all unicyclic graphs of order n with a specified number of leaves or maximum degree or independence number or matching number.

Improved upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of digraphs

Let G be a digraph with n vertices and m arcs without loops and multiarcs. The spectral radius ρ(G) of G is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. In this paper, sharp upper and lower bounds on ρ(G) are given. We show that some known bounds can be obtained from our bounds.     

An improved upper bound for the Laplacian spectral radius of graphs

Let G be a simple graph with n vertices, m edges. Let Δ and δ be the maximum and minimum degree of G, respectively. If each edge of G belongs to t triangles (t≥1), then we present a new upper bound for the Laplacian spectral radius of G as follows:

Moreover, we give an example to illustrate that our result is, in some cases, the best.     

Quotient of spectral radius, (signless) Laplacian spectral radius and clique number of graphs

In this paper, the upper and lower bounds for the quotient of spectral radius (Laplacian spectral radius, signless Laplacian spectral radius) and the clique number together with the corresponding extremal graphs in the class of connected graphs with n vertices and clique number ω(2 ≤ ω ≤ n) are determined. As a consequence of our results, two conjectures given in Aouchiche (2006) and Hansen (2010) are proved.     

The Laplacian spectral radius of graphs

The Laplacian spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of the associated Laplacian matrix. In this paper, we improve Shi’s upper bound for the Laplacian spectral radius of irregular graphs and present some new bounds for the Laplacian spectral radius of some classes of graphs.

On an upper bound of the spectral radius of graphs

We give some upper bounds for the spectral radius of bipartite graph and graph, which improve the result in Hong’s Paper [Y. Hong, J.-L. Shu, K. Fang, A sharp upper bound of the spectral radius of graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 81 (2001) 177-183].     

Effects on the normalized Laplacian spectral radius of non-bipartite graphs under perturbation and their applications

The normalized Laplacian eigenvalues of a network play an important role in its structural and dynamical aspects associated with the network. In this paper, we consider how the normalized Laplacian spectral radius of a non-bipartite graph behaves by several graph operations. As an example of the application, the smallest normalized Laplacian spectral radius of non-bipartite unicyclic graphs with fixed order is determined.     

Some results on the ordering of the Laplacian spectral radii of unicyclic graphs

A unicyclic graph is a graph whose number of edges is equal to the number of vertices. Guo Shu-Guang [S.G. Guo, The largest Laplacian spectral radius of unicyclic graph, Appl. Math. J. Chinese Univ. Ser. A. 16 (2) (2001) 131–135] determined the first four largest Laplacian spectral radii together with the corresponding graphs among all unicyclic graphs on n vertices. In this paper, we extend this ordering by determining the fifth to the ninth largest Laplacian spectral radii together with the corresponding graphs among all unicyclic graphs on n vertices.
