Abstract As a generalization of the Sierpiński-like graphs, the subdivided-line graph Г(G) of a simple connected graph G is defined to be the line graph of the barycentric subdivision of G. In this paper we obtain a closed-form formula for the enumeration of spanning trees in Г(G), employing the theory of electrical networks. We present bounds for the largest and second smallest Laplacian eigenvalues of Г(G) in terms of the maximum degree, the number of edges, and the first Zagreb index of G. In addition, we establish upper and lower bounds for the Laplacian Estrada index of Г(G) based on the vertex degrees of G. These bounds are also connected with the number of spanning trees in Г(G).

Let G be a graph with n vertices and let ?1, ?2, . . . , ?n be its Laplacian eigenvalues. In some recent works a quantity called Laplacian Estrada index was considered, defined as LEE(G)?n1 e?i. We now establish some further properties of LEE, mainly upper and lower bounds in terms of the number of vertices, number of edges, and the first Zagreb index.

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 $q(G)$).

Using the composition of some existing smaller graphs to construct some large graphs, the number of spanning trees and the Laplacian eigenvalues of such large graphs are also closely related to those of the corresponding smaller ones. By using tools from linear algebra and matrix theory, we establish closed formulae for the number of spanning trees of the composition of two graphs with one of them being an arbitrary complete 3-partite graph and the other being an arbitrary graph. Our results extend some of the previous work, which depend on the structural parameters such as the number of vertices and eigenvalues of the small graphs only.

Let G be a simple connected graph with n vertices and m edges, and sequence of vertex degrees d1 ? d2 ?...? dn > 0. If vertices i and j are adjacent, we write i ~ j. Denote by ?1, ?*1, Q? and H? the multiplicative Zagreb index, multiplicative sum Zagreb index, general first Zagreb index, and general sumconnectivity index, respectively. These indices are defined as ?1 = ?ni=1 d2i, ?*1 = ?i~j(di+dj), Q? = ?n,i=1 d?i and H? = ?i~j(di+dj)?. We establish upper and lower bounds for the differences H?-m (?1*)?/m and Q?-n(?1)?/2n . In this way we generalize a number of results that were earlier reported in the literature.

Let G be a connected graph of order n with Laplacian eigenvalues μ1 ≥ μ2 ≥ ... ≥ μn-1 > mn = 0. The Kirchhoff index of G is defined as [xxx] In this paper. we give lower and upper bounds on Kf of graphs in terms on n, number of edges, maximum degree, and number of spanning trees. Moreover, we present lower and upper bounds on the Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result for the Kirchhoff index.

A topological index is a number related to the atomic index that allows quantitative structure–action/property/toxicity connections. All the more vital topological indices correspond to certain physico-concoction properties like breaking point, solidness, strain vitality, and so forth, of synthetic mixes. The idea of the hyper Zagreb index, multiple Zagreb indices and Zagreb polynomials was set up in the substance diagram hypothesis in light of vertex degrees. These indices are valuable in the investigation of calming exercises of certain compound systems. In this paper, we computed the first and second Zagreb index, the hyper Zagreb index, multiple Zagreb indices and Zagreb polynomials of the line graph of wheel and ladder graphs by utilizing the idea of subdivision.

Systems composing of dynamical units are ubiquitous in nature, ranging from physical to technological, and to biological field. These systems can be naturally described by networks, knowledge of its Laplacian eigenvalues is central to understanding its structure and dynamics for a network. In this paper, we study the Laplacian spectra of a family with scale-free and small-world properties. Based on the obtained recurrence relations, we determine explicitly the product of all nonzero Laplacian eigenvalues, as well as the sum of the reciprocals of these eigenvalues. Then, using these results, we further evaluate the number of spanning trees, Kirchhoff index.

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].

The line graph G of a directed graph G has a vertex for every edge of G and an edge for every path of length 2 in G. In 1967, Knuth used the Matrix Tree Theorem to prove a formula for the number of spanning trees of G, and he asked for a bijective proof [6]. In this paper, we give a bijective proof of Knuth's formula. As a result of this proof, we find a bijection between binary de Bruijn sequences of degree n and binary sequences of length 2n−1. Finally, we determine the critical groups of all the Kautz graphs and de Bruijn graphs, generalizing a result of Levine [7].
