A universal adjacency matrix U of a graph G is a linear combination of the 0–1 adjacency matrix A, the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees D, the identity matrix I and the matrix J each of whose entries is 1. A main eigenvalue of U is an eigenvalue having an eigenvector that is not orthogonal to the all–ones vector. It is shown that the number of distinct main eigenvalues of U associated with a simple graph G is at most the number of orbits of any automorphism of G. The definition of a U–controllable graph is given using control–theoretic techniques and several necessary and sufficient conditions for a graph to be U–controllable are determined. It is then demonstrated that U–controllable graphs are asymmetric and that the converse is false, showing that there exist both regular and non–regular asymmetric graphs that are not U–controllable for any universal adjacency matrix U. To aid in the discovery of these counterexamples, a gamma–Laplacian matrix L(gamma) is used, which is a simplified form of U. It is proved that any U-controllable graph is a L(gamma)–controllable graph for some parameter gamma.

Let G be a simple graph of order n . The matrix ℒ G = D G − A G is called the Laplacian matrix of G , where D G and A G denote the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees and the adjacency matrix of G , respectively. Let l 1 G , l n − 1 G be the largest eigenvalue, the second smallest eigenvalue of ℒ G respectively, and λ 1 G be the largest eigenvalue of A G . In this paper, we will present sharp upper and lower bounds for l 1 G and l n − 1 G . Moreover, we investigate the relation between l 1 G and λ 1 G .

Let G be a graph on n vertices. The Laplacian matrix of G, denoted by L(G), is defined as L(G) = D(G) −A(G), where A(G) is the adjacency matrix of G and D(G) is the diagonal matrix of the vertex degrees of G. A graph G is said to be L-integral if all eigenvalues of the matrix L(G) are integers. In this paper, we characterize all Lintegral non-bipartite graphs among all connected graphs with at most two vertices of degree larger than or equal to three.

In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions for the matrix equation to have a positive definite solution are derived, where , is an identity matrix, are nonsingular real matrices, and is an odd positive integer. These conditions are used to propose some properties on the matrices , . Moreover, relations between the solution and the matrices are derived.

Abstract The distance matrix 𝒟(G) of a connected graph G is the matrix containing the pairwise distances between vertices. The transmission of a vertex vi in G is the sum of the distances from vi to all other vertices and T(G) is the diagonal matrix of transmissions of the vertices of the graph. The normalized distance Laplacian, 𝒟𝒧(G) = I−T(G)−1/2 𝒟(G)T(G)−1/2, is introduced. This is analogous to the normalized Laplacian matrix, 𝒧(G) = I − D(G)−1/2 A(G)D(G)−1/2, where D(G) is the diagonal matrix of degrees of the vertices of the graph and A(G) is the adjacency matrix. Bounds on the spectral radius of 𝒟 𝒧 and connections with the normalized Laplacian matrix are presented. Twin vertices are used to determine eigenvalues of the normalized distance Laplacian. The distance generalized characteristic polynomial is defined and its properties established. Finally, 𝒟𝒧-cospectrality and lack thereof are determined for all graphs on 10 and fewer vertices, providing evidence that the normalized distance Laplacian has fewer cospectral pairs than other matrices.

Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a square matrix to te the matrix of distances of a circulant code. These conditions are used to obtain some inequalities for cyclic difference sets, and a necessary condition for the existence of circulant weighing matrices.

1. Introduction. Recently Kaplansky suggested the definition of a suitable Jordan analogue of B*-algebras, which we call J B*-algebras (see (10) and (11)). In this article, we give a characterization of those complex unital Banach Jordan algebras which are J B*-algebras in an equivalent norm. This is done by generalizing results of Bonsall ((3) and (4)) to give necessary and sufficient conditions on a real unital Banach Jordan algebra under which it is the self-adjoint part of a J B*-algebra in an equivalent norm. As a corollary we also obtain a characterization of the cones in a Banach Jordan algebra which are the set of positive elements of a J B*-algebra.

AbstractWe construct a non-commutative analogue of the algebra of differential forms on the space of endomorphisms of a vector space, given a non-commutative algebra of functions and differential forms on the vector space. The construction yields a differential bialgebra which is a skew product of an algebra of functions and an algebra of differential forms with constant coefficients. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for such an algebra to exist, show that it is uniquely determined by the differential algebra on the vector space, and show that it is a non-commutative superpolynomial algebra in the matrix elements and their differentials (i.e. that it has the same dimensions of homogeneous components as in the classical case).
