Let $G$ be a connected graph with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges and having diameter $d$. The distance Laplacian matrix $D^{L}$ is defined as $D^L=$Diag$(Tr)-D$, where Diag$(Tr)$ is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions and $D$ is the distance matrix of $G$. The distance Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$ are the eigenvalues of $D^{L}$ and are denoted by $\delta_{1}, ~\delta_{1},~\dots,\delta_{n}$. In this paper, we obtain (a) the upper bounds for the sum of $k$ largest and (b) the lower bounds for the sum of $k$ smallest non-zero, distance Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$ in terms of order $n$, diameter $d$ and Wiener index $W$ of $G$. We characterize the extremal cases of these bounds. As a consequence, we also obtain the bounds for the sum of the powers of the distance Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$.

The distance signless Laplacian matrix of a 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 of vertex transmissions of [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] are the distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues of a simple graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text] then we put forward the graph invariants [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for the sum of [Formula: see text]-largest and the sum of [Formula: see text]-smallest distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues of a graph [Formula: see text], respectively. We obtain lower bounds for the invariants [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. Then, we present some inequalities between the vertex transmissions, distance eigenvalues, distance Laplacian eigenvalues, and distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs. Finally, we give some new results and bounds for the distance signless Laplacian energy of graphs.

The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) of a connected graph G is defined as D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 , D ( G ) is the distance matrix and T r ( G ) is the diagonal matrix of the node transmissions. In this paper, we extend the concept of energy to the generalized distance matrix and define the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) . Some new upper and lower bounds for the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) of G are established based on parameters including the Wiener index W ( G ) and the transmission degrees. Extremal graphs attaining these bounds are identified. It is found that the complete graph has the minimum generalized distance energy among all connected graphs, while the minimum is attained by the star graph among trees of order n.

The distance signless Laplacian eigenvalues [Formula: see text] of a connected graph [Formula: see text] are the eigenvalues of the distance signless Laplacian matrix of [Formula: see text], 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 of vertex transmissions of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we define and investigate the distance signless Laplacian Estrada index of a graph [Formula: see text] as [Formula: see text], and obtain some upper and lower bounds for [Formula: see text] in terms of other graph invariants. We also obtain some relations between [Formula: see text] and the auxiliary distance signless Laplacian energy of [Formula: see text].

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.

For a simple connected graph $G$, let $D(G)$, $Tr(G)$, $D^{L}(G)=Tr(G)-D(G)$, and $D^{Q}(G)=Tr(G)+D(G)$ be the distance matrix, the diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions, the distance Laplacian matrix, and the distance signless Laplacian matrix of $G$, respectively. Atik and Panigrahi [2] suggested the study of the problem: Whether all eigenvalues, except the spectral radius, of $ D(G) $ and $ D^{Q}(G) $ lie in the smallest Ger\v{s}gorin disk? In this paper, we provide a negative answer by constructing an infinite family of counterexamples.

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.

In this paper, we study the generalized distance matrix [Formula: see text] assigned to simple connected graph [Formula: see text], which is the convex combinations of Tr[Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] and defined as [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] and Tr[Formula: see text] denote the distance matrix and diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions of a simple connected graph [Formula: see text], respectively. Denote with [Formula: see text], the generalized distance eigenvalues of [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be, respectively, the sum of [Formula: see text]-largest generalized distance eigenvalues and the sum of [Formula: see text]-smallest generalized distance eigenvalues of [Formula: see text]. We obtain bounds for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in terms of the order [Formula: see text], the Wiener index [Formula: see text] and parameter [Formula: see text]. For a graph [Formula: see text] of diameter 2, we establish a relationship between the [Formula: see text] and the sum of [Formula: see text]-largest generalized adjacency eigenvalues of the complement [Formula: see text]. We characterize the connected bipartite graph and the connected graphs with given independence number that attains the minimum value for [Formula: see text]. We also obtain some bounds for the graph invariants [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

The eccentricity of a vertex [Formula: see text] in a graph [Formula: see text] is the maximum distance between [Formula: see text] and any other vertex of [Formula: see text] A vertex with maximum eccentricity is called a peripheral vertex. In this paper, we study the distance signless Laplacian matrix of a connected graph [Formula: see text] with respect to peripheral vertices and define the peripheral distance signless Laplacian matrix of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. We then give some bounds on various eigenvalues of [Formula: see text] Moreover, we define energy in terms of [Formula: see text] and give some bounds on the energy.

Let G be a connected graph with n vertices and m edges. The Laplacian eigenvalues are denoted by μ1(G) ≥ μ2(G)≥ · · · ≥μn−1(G) > μn(G) = 0. The Laplacian eigenvalues have important applications in theoretical chemistry. We present upper bounds for μ1(G)+· · ·+μk(G) and lower bounds for μn−1(G)+· · ·+μn−k(G) in terms of n and m, where 1 ≤ k ≤ n−2, and characterize the extremal cases. We also discuss a type of upper bounds for μ1(G) in terms of degree and 2-degree.

For a simple undirected connected graph G of order n, let D ( G ) , D L ( G ) , D Q ( G ) and T r ( G ) be, respectively, the distance matrix, the distance Laplacian matrix, the distance signless Laplacian matrix and the diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions of G. The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) is signified by D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 - α ) D ( G ) , where α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] . Here, we propose a new kind of Estrada index based on the Gaussianization of the generalized distance matrix of a graph. Let ∂ 1 , ∂ 2 , … , ∂ n be the generalized distance eigenvalues of a graph G. We define the generalized distance Gaussian Estrada index P α ( G ) , as P α ( G ) = ∑ i = 1 n e - ∂ i 2 . Since characterization of P α ( G ) is very appealing in quantum information theory, it is interesting to study the quantity P α ( G ) and explore some properties like the bounds, the dependence on the graph topology G and the dependence on the parameter α . In this paper, we establish some bounds for the generalized distance Gaussian Estrada index P α ( G ) of a connected graph G, involving the different graph parameters, including the order n, the Wiener index W ( G ) , the transmission degrees and the parameter α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] , and characterize the extremal graphs attaining these bounds.
