In literature, there are some results known about spectral determination of graphs with many edges. In [M.~C\'{a}mara and W.H.~Haemers. Spectral characterizations of almost complete graphs. {\em Discrete Appl. Math.}, 176:19--23, 2014.], C\'amara and Haemers studied complete graph with some edges deleted for spectral determination. In fact, they found that if the deleted edges form a matching, a complete graph $K_m$ provided $m \le n-2$, or a complete bipartite graph, then it is determined by its adjacency spectrum. In this paper, the graph $K_{n}\backslash K_{l,m}$ $(n>l+m)$ which is obtained from the complete graph $K_{n}$ by removing all the edges of a complete bipartite subgraph $K_{l,m}$ is studied. It is shown that the graph $K_{n}\backslash K_{1,m}$ with $m\ge4$ is determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum, and it is proved that the graph $K_{n}\backslash K_{l,m}$ is determined by its distance spectrum. The signless Laplacian spectral determination of the multicone graph $K_{n-2\alpha}\vee \alpha K_{2}$ was studied by Bu and Zhou in [C.~Bu and J.~Zhou. Signless Laplacian spectral characterization of the cones over some regular graphs. {\em Linear Algebra Appl.}, 436:3634--3641, 2012.] and Xu and He in [L. Xu and C. He. On the signless Laplacian spectral determination of the join of regular graphs. {\em Discrete Math. Algorithm. Appl.}, 6:1450050, 2014.] only for $n-2\alpha=1 ~\text{or}~ 2$. Here, this problem is completely solved for all positive integer $n-2\alpha$. The proposed approach is entirely different from those given by Bu and Zhou, and Xu and He.

Let G be an r-regular graph with order n, and G ∨ H be the graph obtained by joining each vertex of G to each vertex of H. In this paper, we prove that G ∨ K2is determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum for r = 1, n - 2. For r = n - 3, we show that G ∨ K2is determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum if and only if the complement of G has no triangles.

Coalescence as one of the operations on a pair of graphs is significant due to its simple form of chromatic polynomial. The adjacency matrix, Laplacian matrix, and signless Laplacian matrix are common matrices usually considered for discussion under spectral graph theory. In this paper, we compute adjacency, Laplacian, and signless Laplacian energy (Qenergy) of coalescence of pair of complete graphs. Also, as an application, we obtain the adjacency energy of subdivision graph and line graph of coalescence from itsQenergy.

For a graph [Formula: see text] and a subgraph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] an [Formula: see text]-decomposition of [Formula: see text] is a partition of the edge set of [Formula: see text] into subsets [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] such that each [Formula: see text] induces a graph isomorphic to [Formula: see text] It is proved that the necessary conditions are sufficient for the existence of an [Formula: see text]-decomposition of the graph [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is any simple connected unicyclic graph of order five, × denotes the tensor product of graphs and [Formula: see text] denotes the multiplicity of the edges. In fact, using the above characterization, a necessary and sufficient condition for the graph [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] to admit an [Formula: see text]-decomposition is obtained. Similar results for the complete graphs and complete multipartite graphs are proved in: [J.-C. Bermond et al. [Formula: see text]-decomposition of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] has four vertices or less, Discrete Math. 19 (1977) 113–120, J.-C. Bermond et al. Decomposition of complete graphs into isomorphic subgraphs with five verices, Ars Combin. 10 (1980) 211–254, M. H. Huang, Decomposing complete equipartite graphs into connected unicyclic graphs of size five, Util. Math. 97 (2015) 109–117].

Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph. Then the signless Laplacian matrix of $G$ is defined as $D_G + A_G$ in which $D_G$ and $A_G$ denote the degree matrix and the adjacency matrix of $G$, respectively. The graph $G$ is said to be determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum (DQS, for short), if any graph having the same signless Laplacian spectrum as $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. We show that $G\sqcup rK_2$ is determined by its signless Laplacian spectra under certain conditions, where $r$ and $K_2$ denote a natural number and the complete graph on two vertices, respectively. Applying these results, some DQS graphs with independent edges are obtained.

The distance signless Laplacian matrix of a simple connected graph [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the distance matrix of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the diagonal matrix whose main diagonal entries are the vertex transmissions in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we first determine the distance signless Laplacian spectrum of the graphs obtained by generalization of the join and lexicographic product graph operations (namely joined union) in terms of their adjacency spectrum and the eigenvalues of an auxiliary matrix, determined by the graph [Formula: see text]. As an application, we show that new pairs of auxiliary equienergetic graphs can be constructed by joined union of regular graphs.

In this paper, we introduce a new graph operation called subdivision vertex-edge join (denoted by G 1 S ▹ ( G 2 V ∪ G 3 E ) for short), and then the adjacency spectrum, the Laplacian spectrum and the signless Laplacian spectrum of G 1 S ▹ ( G 2 V ∪ G 3 E ) are respectively determined in terms of the corresponding spectra for a regular graph G 1 and two arbitrary graphs G 2 and G 3 . All the above can be viewed as the generalizations of the main results in [X. Liu, Z. Zhang, Bull. Malays. Math. Sci. Soc., 2017:1–17]. Furthermore, we also determine the normalized Laplacian spectrum of G 1 S ▹ ( G 2 V ∪ G 3 E ) whenever G i are regular graphs for each index i = 1 , 2 , 3 . As applications, we construct infinitely many pairs of A-cospectral mates, L-cospectral mates, Q-cospectral mates and L -cospectral mates. Finally, we give the number of spanning trees, the (degree-)Kirchhoff index and the Kemeny’s constant of G 1 S ▹ ( G 2 V ∪ G 3 E ) , respectively.

The signless Laplacian reciprocal distance matrix for a simple connected graph G is defined as RQ(G)=diag(RH(G))+RD(G). Here, RD(G) is the Harary matrix (also called reciprocal distance matrix) while diag(RH(G)) represents the diagonal matrix of the total reciprocal distance vertices. In the present work, some upper and lower bounds for the second-largest eigenvalue of the signless Laplacian reciprocal distance matrix of graphs in terms of various graph parameters are investigated. Besides, all graphs attaining these new bounds are characterized. Additionally, it is inferred that among all connected graphs with n vertices, the complete graph Kn and the graph Kn−e obtained from Kn by deleting an edge e have the maximum second-largest signless Laplacian reciprocal distance eigenvalue.
