In finite group theory, studying the prime graph of a group has been an important topic for almost the past half-century. Recently, prime graphs of solvable groups have been characterized in graph theoretical terms only. This now allows the study of these graphs without any knowledge of the group theoretical background. In this paper we study prime graphs from a linear algebra angle and focus on the class of minimally connected prime graphs introduced in earlier work on the subject. As our main results, we determine the determinants of the adjacency matrices and the spectra of some important families of these graphs.

A simple $n$-vertex graph has a prime vertex labeling if the vertices can be injectively labeled with the integers $1, 2, 3,ldots, n$ such that adjacent vertices have relatively prime labels. We will present previously unknown prime vertex labelings for new families of graphs, all of which are special cases of Seoud and Youssefs conjecture that all unicyclic graphs have a prime labeling.

In 1960, Hoffman and Singleton cite{HS60} solved a celebrated equation for square matrices of order $n$, which can be written as $$ (kappa - 1) I_n + J_n - A A^{rm T} = A$$ where $I_n$, $J_n$, and $A$ are the identity matrix, the all one matrix, and a $(0,1)$--matrix with all row and column sums equal to $kappa$, respectively. If $A$ is an incidence matrix of some configuration $cal C$ of type $n_kappa$, then the left-hand side $Theta(A):= (kappa - 1)I_n + J_n - A A^{rm T}$ is an adjacency matrix of the non--collinearity graph $Gamma$ of $cal C$. In certain situations, $Theta(A)$ is also an incidence matrix of some $n_kappa$ configuration, namely the neighbourhood geometry of $Gamma$ introduced by Lef`evre-Percsy, Percsy, and Leemans cite{LPPL}. The matrix operator $Theta$ can be reiterated and we pose the problem of solving the generalised Hoffman--Singleton equation $Theta^m(A)=A$. In particular, we classify all $(0,1)$--matrices $M$ with all row and column sums equal to $kappa$, for $kappa = 3,4$, which are solutions of this equation. As a by--product, we obtain characterisations for incidence matrices of the configuration $10_3F$ in Kantors list cite{Kantor} and the $17_4$ configuration $#1971$ in Betten and Bettens list cite{BB99}.
It is well known that spectral Tur{a}n type problem is one of the most classical {problems} in graph theory. In this paper, we consider the spectral Tur{a}n type problem. Let $G$ be a graph and let $mathcal{G}$ be a set of graphs, we say $G$ is texti t{$mathcal{G}$-free} if $G$ does not contain any element of $mathcal{G}$ as a subgraph. Denote by $lambda_1$ and $lambda_2$ the largest and the second largest eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ of $G,$ respectively. In this paper we focus on the characterization of graphs without short odd cycles according to the adjacency eigenvalues of the graphs. Firstly, an upper bound on $lambda_1^{2k}+lambda_2^{2k}$ of $n$-vertex ${C_3,C_5,ldots,C_{2k+1}}$-free graphs is established, where $k$ is a positive integer. All the corresponding extremal graphs are identified. Secondly, a sufficient condition for non-bipartite graphs containing an odd cycle of length at most $2k+1$ in terms of its spectral radius is given. At last, we characterize the unique graph having the maximum spectral radius among the set of $n$-vertex non-bipartite graphs with odd girth at least $2k+3,$ which solves an open problem proposed by Lin, Ning and Wu [Eigenvalues and triangles in graphs, Combin. Probab. Comput. 30 (2) (2021) 258-270].

This contribution gives an extensive study on spectra of mixed graphs via its Hermitian adjacency matrix of the second kind introduced by Mohar [21]. This matrix is indexed by the vertices of the mixed graph, and the entry corresponding to an arc fro m $u$ to $v$ is equal to the sixth root of unity $omega=frac{1+{bf i}sqrt{3}}{2}$ (and its symmetric entry is $overline{omega}=frac{1-{bf i}sqrt{3}}{2}$); the entry corresponding to an undirected edge is equal to 1, and 0 otherwise. The main results of this paper include the following: Some interesting properties are discovered about the characteristic polynomial of this novel matrix. Cospectral problems among mixed graphs, including mixed graphs and their underlying graphs, are studied. We give equivalent conditions for a mixed graph that shares the same spectrum of its Hermitian adjacency matrix of the second kind ($H_S$-spectrum for short) with its underlying graph. A sharp upper bound on the $H_S$-spectral radius is established and the corresponding extremal mixed graphs are identified. Operations which are called three-way switchings are discussed--they give rise to a large number of $H_S$-cospectral mixed graphs. We extract all the mixed graphs whose rank of its Hermitian adjacency matrix of the second kind ($H_S$-rank for short) is $2$ (resp. 3). Furthermore, we show that all connected mixed graphs with $H_S$-rank $2$ can be determined by their $H_S$-spectrum. However, this does not hold for all connected mixed graphs with $H_S$-rank $3$. We identify all mixed graphs whose eigenvalues of its Hermitian adjacency matrix of the second kind ($H_S$-eigenvalues for short) lie in the range $(-alpha,, alpha)$ for $alphainleft{sqrt{2},,sqrt{3},,2right}$.
