On singular signed graphs with nullspace spanned by a full vector: Signed nut graphs

Nino Bašić, Patrick W. Fowler, Tomaž Pisanski +1

A signed graph has edge weights drawn from the set , and is termed sign-balanced if it is equivalent to an unsigned graph under the operation of sign switching; otherwis…

Nullspace Vertex Partition in Graphs

Irene Sciriha, Xandru Mifsud, James Borg

The core vertex set of a graph is an invariant of the graph. It consists of those vertices associated with the non-zero entries of the nullspace vectors of a -adjacency ma…

Existence of regular nut graphs for degree at most 11

Patrick W. Fowler, John Baptist Gauci, Jan Goedgebeur +2

A nut graph is a singular graph with one-dimensional kernel and corresponding eigenverctor with no zero elements. The problem of determining the orders for which -regular nu…

On the Walks and Bipartite Double Coverings of Graphs with the same Main Eigenspace

Luke Collins, Irene Sciriha

The main eigenvalues of a graph are those eigenvalues of the -adjacency matrix having a corresponding eigenvector not orthogonal to

On the Displacement of Eigenvalues when Removing a Twin Vertex

Johann A. Briffa, Irene Sciriha

Twin vertices of a graph have the same open neighbourhood. If they are not adjacent, then they are called duplicates and contribute the eigenvalue zero to the adjacency matrix. Oth…

Existence of Regular Nut Graphs and the Fowler Construction

John Baptist Gauci, Tomaz Pisanski, Irene Sciriha

In this paper the problem of the existence of regular nut graphs is addressed. A generalization of Fowler's Construction which is a local enlargement applied to a vertex in a graph…
