A graph is called Q‐integral if its signless Laplacian spectrum consists of integers. In this paper, we characterize a class of k‐cyclic graphs whose second smallest signless Laplacian eigenvalue is less than one. Using this result we determine all the Q‐integral unicyclic, bicyclic and tricyclic graphs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
