Abstract

A graph G is L-DS (respectively, Q-DS) if there is no other non-isomorphic graph with the same (respectively, signless) Laplacian spectrum as G. Let G1â̂̈G2 be the join graph of graphs G1 and G2, and Ur,n-r the graph obtained by attaching n-r pendent vertices to a vertex of Cr (the cycle of order r). In this paper, we prove that if G is L-DS and the algebraic connectivity of G is less than three, then Ktâ̂̈G is L-DS under certain condition, which extends the main result of Zhou and Bu (2012) [24]. Also, Ur,n-r is proved to be Q-DS for r≥3.
