We present a linear time algorithm that computes the number of eigenvalues of a unicyclic graph in a given real interval. It operates directly on the graph, so that the matrix is not needed explicitly. The algorithm is applied to study the multiplicities of eigenvalues of closed caterpillars, obtain the spectrum of balanced closed caterpillars and give sufficient conditions for these graphs to be non-integral. We also use our method to study the distribution of eigenvalues of unicyclic graphs formed by adding a fixed number of copies of a path to each node in a cycle. We show that they are not integral graphs.

We present a linear-time algorithm that computes in a given real interval the number of eigenvalues of any symmetric matrix whose underlying graph is unicyclic. The algorithm can be applied to vertex- and/or edge-weighted or unweighted unicyclic graphs. We apply the algorithm to obtain some general results on the spectrum of a generalized sun graph for certain matrix representations which include the Laplacian, normalized Laplacian and signless Laplacian matrices.

In this paper we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for the square of a vertex-unicyclic graph to be Hamiltonian. The conditions are simple and easily checked. Further, we show that the square of a vertex-unicyclic graph is Hamiltonian if and only if it is vertex-pancyclic.

In this paper, completely regular endomorphisms of unicyclic graphs are explored. Let G be a unicyclic graph and let c E n d ( G ) be the set of all completely regular endomorphisms of G. The necessary and sufficient conditions under which c E n d ( G ) forms a monoid are given. It is shown that c E n d ( G ) forms a submonoid of E n d ( G ) if and only if G is an odd cycle or G = G ( n , m ) for some odd n ≥ 3 and integer m ≥ 1 .

Let G = V G , E G be a molecular graph, where V G and E G are the sets of vertices (atoms) and edges (bonds). A topological index of a molecular graph is a numerical quantity which helps to predict the chemical/physical properties of the molecules. The Wiener, Wiener polarity, and the terminal Wiener indices are the distance-based topological indices. In this paper, we described a linear time algorithm (LTA) that computes the Wiener index for acyclic graphs and extended this algorithm for unicyclic graphs. The same algorithms are modified to compute the terminal Wiener index and the Wiener polarity index. All these algorithms compute the indices in time O n .

The Hosoya index of a graph is defined as the total number of its independent edge sets. This index is an important example of topological indices, a molecular-graph based structure descriptor that is of significant interest in combinatorial chemistry. The Hosoya index inspires the introduction of a matrix associated with a molecular acyclic graph called the Hosoya matrix. We propose a simple linear-time algorithm, which does not require pre-processing, to compute the Hosoya index of an arbitrary tree. A similar approach allows us to show that the Hosoya matrix can be computed in constant time per entry of the matrix.

We give a linear time algorithm to compute the number of eigenvalues of any perturbedLaplacian matrix of a tree in a given real interval. The algorithm can be applied to weightedor unweighted trees. Using our method we characterize the trees that have up to $5$ distincteigenvalues with respect to a family of perturbed Laplacian matrices that includes the adjacencyand normalized Laplacian matrices as special cases, among others.

For a simple graph G=(V,E) with no isolated vertices, a total Roman {3}-dominating function(TR3DF) on G is a function f:V(G)→{0,1,2,3} having the property that (i) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥3 if f(v)=0; (ii) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥2 if f(v)=1; and (iii) every vertex v with f(v)≠0 has a neighbor u with f(u)≠0 for every vertex v∈V(G). The weight of a TR3DF f is the sum f(V)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) and the minimum weight of a total Roman {3}-dominating function on G is called the total Roman {3}-domination number denoted by γt{R3}(G). In this paper, we show that the total Roman {3}-domination problem is NP-complete for planar graphs and chordal bipartite graphs. Finally, we present a linear-time algorithm to compute the value of γt{R3} for trees.
