Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices with spectral radius $\lambda$ (this is the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$). We show that if $G$ does not contain the complete bipartite graph $K_{t ,s}$ as a subgraph, where $2\le t \le s$, then $$\lambda \le \Big((s-1)^{1/t }+o(1)\Big)n^{1-1/t }$$ for fixed $t$ and $s$ while $n\to\infty$. Asymptotically, this bound matches the Kővári-Turán-Sós upper bound on the average degree of $G$ (the Zarankiewicz problem).

AbstractWe offer a new method for proving that the maxima eigenvalue of the normalized graph Laplacian of a graph with n vertices is at least $$\frac{n+1}{n-1}$$ n + 1 n - 1 provided the graph is not complete and that equality is attained if and only if the complement graph is a single edge or a complete bipartite graph with both parts of size $$\frac{n-1}{2}$$ n - 1 2 . With the same method, we also prove a new lower bound to the largest eigenvalue in terms of the minimum vertex degree, provided this is at most $$\frac{n-1}{2}$$ n - 1 2 .

The spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of the graph. Let $T^*(n,\Delta ,l)$ be the tree which minimizes the spectral radius of all trees of order $n$ with exactly $l$ vertices of maximum degree $\Delta $. In this paper, $T^*(n,\Delta ,l)$ is determined for $\Delta =3$, and for $l\le 3$ and $n$ large enough. It is proven that for sufficiently large $n$, $T^*(n,3,l)$ is a caterpillar with (almost) uniformly distributed legs, $T^*(n,\Delta ,2)$ is a dumbbell, and $T^*(n,\Delta ,3)$ is a tree consisting of three distinct stars of order $\Delta $ connected by three disjoint paths of (almost) equal length from their centers to a common vertex. The unique tree with the largest spectral radius among all such trees is also determined. These extend earlier results of Lov\' asz and Pelik\'an, Simi\' c and To\u si\' c, Wu, Yuan and Xiao, and Xu, Lin and Shu.

Let $G$ be an irregular graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. We show that $$ \Delta-\lambda_1>{1\over nD}, $$ where $\lambda_1$ is the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$. We also study the effect of adding or removing few edges on the spectral radius of a regular graph.

Abstract A tree is a connected acyclic graph. A tree is called a starlike if exactly one of its vertices has degree greater than two. Let λι be the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a starlike tree. In this work, we obtain a lower bound for the spectral radius of a starlike tree. This bound only depends of the maximum degree of the vertices.

For a real number [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-matrix of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined to be [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are the adjacency matrix and degree diagonal matrix of [Formula: see text], respectively. The [Formula: see text]-spectral radius of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the largest eigenvalue of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we consider the upper bound of the [Formula: see text]-spectral radius [Formula: see text], also we give some upper bounds for the second largest eigenvalue of [Formula: see text]-matrix.

The distance spectral radius of a connected graph is the largest eigenvalue of its distance matrix. For integers [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], we prove that among the connected graphs on [Formula: see text] vertices of given maximum degree [Formula: see text] with at least one cycle, the graph [Formula: see text] uniquely maximizes the distance spectral radius, where [Formula: see text] is the graph obtained from the disjoint star on [Formula: see text] vertices and path on [Formula: see text] vertices by adding two edges, one connecting the star center with a path end, and the other being a chord of the star.

Let G be a graph, for any real 0≤α≤1, Nikiforov defines the matrix Aα(G) as Aα(G)=αD(G)+(1−α)A(G), where A(G) and D(G) are the adjacency matrix and diagonal matrix of degrees of the vertices of G. This paper presents some extremal results about the spectral radius ρα(G) of the matrix Aα(G). In particular, we give a lower bound on the spectral radius ρα(G) in terms of order and independence number. In addition, we obtain an upper bound for the spectral radius ρα(G) in terms of order and minimal degree. Furthermore, for n>l>0 and 1≤p≤⌊n−l2⌋, let Gp≅Kl∨(Kp∪Kn−p−l) be the graph obtained from the graphs Kl and Kp∪Kn−p−l and edges connecting each vertex of Kl with every vertex of Kp∪Kn−p−l. We prove that ρα(Gp+1)<ρα(Gp) for 1≤p≤⌊n−l2⌋−1.

We study the perturbation bound for the spectral radius of an mth-order n-dimensional nonnegative tensor A. The main contribution of this paper is to show that when A is perturbed to a nonnegative tensor A~ by ΔA, the absolute difference between the spectral radii of A and A~ is bounded by the largest magnitude of the ratio of the ith component of ΔAxm-1 and the ith component xm-1, where x is an eigenvector associated with the largest eigenvalue of A in magnitude and its entries are positive. We further derive the bound in terms of the entries of A only when x is not known in advance. Based on the perturbation analysis, we make use of the NQZ algorithm to estimate the spectral radius of a nonnegative tensor in general. On the other hand, we study the backward error matrix ΔA and obtain its smallest error bound for its perturbed largest eigenvalue and associated eigenvector of an irreducible nonnegative tensor. Based on the backward error analysis, we can estimate the stability of computation of the largest eigenvalue of an irreducible nonnegative tensor by the NQZ algorithm. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical results of our perturbation analysis.
