The -spectral Turán type problems for graphs
arXiv:2512.01673
Abstract
For , the -spectral radius of a graph is defined as the largest eigenvalue of , where and are the diagonal matrix of degrees and adjacency matrix of , respectively. A graph is called color-critical if it contains an edge whose deletion reduces its chromatic number. The celebrated ErdÅs-Stone-Simonovits theorem asserts that where is the chromatic number of . Nikiforov and Zheng et al. established the adjacency spectral and signless Laplacian spectral versions of this theorem, respectively. In this paper, we present the -spectral version of this theorem, which unifies the aforementioned results. Furthermore, we characterize the -spectral extremal graphs for color-critical graphs, thereby extending the existing results on adjacency spectral and signless Laplacian spectral extremal graphs for such graphs.
