Abstract

Suppose that the vertex set of a graph G is V(G)={v1,v2,…,vn}. Then we denote by dvi(G) the degree of vi in G. Let A(G) be the adjacent matrix of G and D(G) be the n×n diagonal matrix with its (i,i)-entry equal to dvi(G). Then Q(G)=D(G)+A(G) is the signless Laplacian matrix of G. The signless Laplacian spectral radius of G is the largest eigenvalue of Q(G). In this paper we determine the extremal graph with maximum signless Laplacian spectral radius among all tricyclic graphs of order n.
