Abstract

Let G be a graph with n vertices and m edges. Also let μ1, μ2,.,μn-1,μn=0 be the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of graph G. The Laplacian energy of the graph G is defined as LE=LE(G)=Σi=1n|μi-2mn|. In this paper, we present some lower and upper bounds for LE of graph G in terms of n, the number of edges m and the maximum degree Δ. Also we give a Nordhaus-Gaddum-type result for Laplacian energy of graphs. Moreover, we obtain a relation between Laplacian energy and Laplacian-energy-like invariant of graphs.
