On the inverse eigenvalue problem for block graphs


الملخص بالإنكليزية

The inverse eigenvalue problem of a graph $G$ aims to find all possible spectra for matrices whose $(i,j)$-entry, for $i eq j$, is nonzero precisely when $i$ is adjacent to $j$. In this work, the inverse eigenvalue problem is completely solved for a subfamily of clique-path graphs, in particular for lollipop graphs and generalized barbell graphs. For a matrix $A$ with associated graph $G$, a new technique utilizing the strong spectral property is introduced, allowing us to construct a matrix $A$ whose graph is obtained from $G$ by appending a clique while arbitrary list of eigenvalues is added to the spectrum. Consequently, many spectra are shown realizable for block graphs.
