We study the Laplacian spectrum of (ฮฑ, ฯ)-graphs which play an important role in the theory of perfect graphs. The properties of the spectrum we found allow the establishment of some structural properties of (ฮฑ, ฯ)-graphs. We describe, in particular, a class of graphs that are not subgraphs of (ฮฑ, ฯ
Lorenzini, D.J., A finite group attached to the laplacian of a graph, Discrete Mathematics 91 (1991) 277-282. Let F = diag(cp,, . , r~\_, , 0), 91, 1 t . 1 q, ~, , denote the Smith normal form of the laplacian matrix associated to a connected graph G on n vertices. Let h denote the cardinal of the
We show that if \(G\) is a graph embedded on the torus \(S\) and each nonnullhomotopic closed curve on \(S\) intersects \(G\) at least \(r\) times, then \(G\) contains at least \(\left\lfloor\frac{3}{4} r\right\rfloor\) pairwise disjoint nonnullhomotopic circuits. The factor \(\frac{3}{4}\) is best
