Abstract

A graph is called a Laplacian integral graph if the spectrum of its Laplacian matrix consists of integers, and a graph G is said to be determined by its Laplacian spectrum if there does not exist other non-isomorphic graph H such that H and G share the same Laplacian spectrum. In this paper, we obtain a sharp upper bound for the algebraic connectivity of a graph, and identify all the Laplacian integral unicyclic, bicyclic graphs. Moreover, we show that all the Laplacian integral unicyclic, bicyclic graphs are determined by their Laplacian spectra.
