Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$. The resistance matrix of $G$ is defined as $R_G=(r_{ij}(G))_{n\times n}$, where $r_{ij}(G)$ is the resistance distance between two vertices $i$ and $j$ in $G$. Eigenvalues of $R_G$ are called R-eigenvalues of $G$. If all row sums of $R_G$ are equal, then $G$ is called resistance-regular. For any connected graph $G$, we show that $R_G$ determines the structure of $G$ up to isomorphism. Moreover, the structure of $G$ or the number of spanning trees of $G$ is determined by partial entries of $R_G$ under certain conditions. We give some characterizations of resistance-regular graphs and graphs with few distinct R-eigenvalues. For a connected regular graph $G$ with diameter at least $2$, we show that $G$ is strongly regular if and only if there exist $c_1,c_2$ such that $r_{ij}(G)=c_1$ for any adjacent vertices $i,j\in V(G)$, and $r_{ij}(G)=c_2$ for any non-adjacent vertices $i,j\in V(G)$.

Let $d\geq 3$ be a fixed integer.   We give an asympotic formula for the expected number of spanning trees in a uniformly random $d$-regular graph with $n$ vertices. (The asymptotics are as $n\to\infty$, restricted to even $n$ if $d$ is odd.) We also obtain the asymptotic distribution of the number of spanning trees in a uniformly random cubic graph, and conjecture that the corresponding result holds for arbitrary (fixed) $d$. Numerical evidence is presented which supports our conjecture.

In this paper, we give the relation between the spectrum of strongly regular graph and its clique-inserted graph. The Laplacian spectrum and the signless Laplacian spectrum of clique-inserted graph of strongly regular graph are calculated. We also give formulae expressing the energy, Kirchoff index, and the number of spanning trees of clique-inserted graph of a strongly regular graph. And, clique-inserted graph of the triangular graph T t , which is a strongly regular graph, is enumerated.

A graph Γ with diameter d is strongly distance-regular if Γ is distance-regular and its distance-d graph Γd is strongly regular. Some known examples of such graphs are the connected strongly regular graphs, with distance-d graph Γd = Γ (the complement of Γ), and the antipodal distance-regular graphs. Here we study some spectral conditions for a (regular or distance-regular) graph to be strongly distance-regular. In particular, for the case d = 3 the following characterization is proved. A regular (connected) graph Γ, with distinct eigenvalues λ0 > λ1 > λ2 > λ3, is strongly distance-regular if and only if λ2 = −1, and Γ3 is k-regular with degree k satisfying an expression which depends only on the order and the different eigenvalues of Γ.

Given a connected regular graph $G$, let $l(G)$ be its line graph, $s(G)$ its subdivision graph, $r(G)$ the graph obtained from $G$ by adding a new vertex corresponding to each edge of $G$ and joining each new vertex to the end vertices of the corresponding edge and $q(G)$ the graph obtained from $G$ by inserting a new vertex into every edge of $G$ and new edges joining the pairs of new vertices which lie on adjacent edges of $G$. A formula for the normalised Laplacian characteristic polynomial of $l(G)$ (respectively $s(G),r(G)$ and $q(G)$) in terms of the normalised Laplacian characteristic polynomial of $G$ and the number of vertices and edges of $G$ is developed and used to give a sharp lower bound for the degree-Kirchhoff index and a formula for the number of spanning trees of $l(G)$ (respectively $s(G),r(G)$ and $q(G)$).

AbstractA near 1-factor of a graph of order 2n ≧ 4 is a subgraph isomorphic to (n − 2) K2 ∪ P3 ∪ K1. Wallis determined, for each r ≥ 3, the order of a smallest r-regular graph of even order without a 1-factor; while for each r ≧ 3, Chartrand, Goldsmith and Schuster determined the order of a smallest r-regular, (r − 2)-edge-connected graph of even order without a 1-factor. These results are extended to graphs without near 1-factors. It is known that every connected, cubic graph with less than six bridges has a near 1-factor. The order of a smallest connected, cubic graph with exactly six bridges and no near 1-factor is determined.

Merging the first and third classes in a connected graph is the operation of adding edges between all vertices at distance 3 in the original graph while keeping the original edges. We determine when merging the first and third classes in a bipartite distance-regular graph produces a distance-regular graph.

Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a $k$-connected graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Let $D(G)$ be the distance matrix of $G$. Suppose $\lambda_1(D)\geq \cdots \geq \lambda_n(D)$ are the $D$-eigenvalues of $G$. The transmission of $v_i \in V(G)$, denoted by $Tr_G(v_i)$ is defined to be the sum of distances from $v_i$ to all other vertices of $G$, i.e., the row sum $D_{i}(G)$ of $D(G)$ indexed by vertex $v_i$ and suppose that $D_1(G)\geq \cdots \geq D_n(G)$. The $Wiener~ index$ of $G$ denoted by $W(G)$ is given by $W(G)=\frac{1}{2}\sum_{i=1}^{n}D_i(G)$. Let $Tr(G)$ be the $n\times n$ diagonal matrix with its $(i,i)$-entry equal to $TrG(v_i)$. The distance signless Laplacian matrix of $G$ is defined as $D^Q(G)=Tr(G)+D(G)$ and its spectral radius is denoted by $\rho_1(D^Q(G))$ or $\rho_1$. A connected graph $G$ is said to be $t$-transmission-regular if $Tr_G(v_i) =t$ for every vertex $v_i\in V(G)$, otherwise, non-transmission-regular. In this paper, we respectively estimate $D_1(G)-\lambda_1(G)$ and $2D_1(G)-\rho_1(G)$ for a $k$-connected non-transmission-regular graph in different ways and compare these obtained results. And we conjecture that $D_1(G)-\lambda_1(G)>\frac{1}{n+1}$. Moreover, we show that the conjecture is valid for trees.

For any 2-distance set in the n-dimensional binary Hamming space , let be the graph with as the vertex set and with two vertices adjacent if and only if the distance between them is the smaller of the two nonzero distances in . The binary spherical representation number of a graph , or bsr(), is the least n such that is isomorphic to , where is a 2-distance set lying on a sphere in . It is shown that if is a connected regular graph, then bsr, where b is the order of and m is the multiplicity of the least eigenvalue of , and the case of equality is characterized. In particular, if is a connected strongly regular graph, then bsr if and only if is the block graph of a quasisymmetric 2-design. It is also shown that if a connected regular graph is cospectral with a line graph and has the same binary spherical representation number as this line graph, then it is a line graph.
