Abstract

The energy of a simple connected graph G is equal to the sum of the absolute value of eigenvalues of the graph G where the eigenvalue of a graph G is the eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix . Ultimately, scores of various graph energies have been originated. It has been shown in this paper that the different graph energies of the regular splitting graph is a multiple of corresponding energy of a given graph G.

1. Introduction

Let G be a simple, finite, and undirected graph and its vertex set and edge set are denoted by and , respectively. Number of edges finishing at a vertex of a graph is named as degree of vertex and is denoted by or .

The adjacency matrix of G, denoted by , is a square matrix such that is equal to unity if and is equal to zero otherwise. The eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix are known as the eigenvalues of the graph G. Collection of eigenvalues of the graph G together with their multiplicities is called spectrum of the graph G.

Let be eigenvalues of G and are assumed in nonincreasing order; then, Ivan Gutman in 1978 [1] defined the energy of the graph G as the sum of the absolute values of all eigenvalues of the graph G:

The inspiration of description energy of graph happened from quantum Chemistry. During 1930s, E. Hückel presented chemical applications of graph theory in his molecular orbital theory where eigenvalues of graphs take place. In quantum chemistry, the skeleton of nonsaturated hydrocarbon is represented by a graph. The energy levels of electrons in such a molecule are eigenvalues of graph. The strength of particles is closely identified with the spectrum of its graph. The carbon atoms and chemical bond between them in a hydrocarbon system denote vertices and edges, respectively, in a molecular graph. A lot of work has been done on graph theory, special graph labeling [210], chemical graph theory and graph energies. In the thesis of Siraj [11], certain elementary results on the energy of the graph are also described.

The present work is considered to relate several energies of a graph to bigger graph acquired from the given graph with the help of some graph operations, namely, the splitting graph which is defined in [12]. For a graph G, the splitting graph is obtained by taking a new vertex corresponding to each vertex of the graph G and then join to all vertices of G adjacent to . In [13], it has been proven that

Let and be two matrices of order and , respectively. Then, their tensor product, is obtained from A when every element is replaced by the block and is of order .
