Main eigenvalues of a graph and its Hamiltonicity

The concept of (κ,τ)-regular vertex set appeared in 2004. It was proved that the existence of many classical combinatorial structures in a graph like perfect matchings, Hamiltonian cycles, effective dominating sets, etc., can be characterized by (κ,τ)-regular sets the definition whereof is equivalent to the determination of these classical combinatorial structures. On the other hand, the determination of (κ,τ)-regular sets is closely related to the properties of the main spectrum of a graph. This paper generalizes the well-known properties of (κ,κ)-regular sets of a graph to arbitrary (κ,τ)-regular sets of graphs with an emphasis on their connection with classical combinatorial structures. We also present a recognition algorithm for the Hamiltonicity of the graph that becomes polynomial in some classes of graphs, for example, in the class of graphs with a fixed cyclomatic number.
