ON GRAPHS WITH THREE DISTINCT LAPLACIAN EIGENVALUES

摘要

In this paper, an equivalent condition of a graph G with t (2 ≤ t ≤ n) distinct Laplacian eigenvalues is established. By applying this condition to t = 3, if G is regular (necessarily be strongly regular), an equivalent condition of G being Laplacian integral is given. Also for the case of t = 3, if G is non-regular, it is found that G has diameter 2 and girth at most 5 if G is not a tree. Graph G is characterized in the case of its being triangle-free, bipartite and pentagon-free. In both cases, G is Laplacian integral.
