Abstract:
In this paper we determine the normalized Laplacian spectrum of duplication vertex join of two graphs, duplication graph, splitting graph and double graph of a regular graph. Here we investigate some graph invariants like the normalized Laplacian energy, Kemeny’s constant and number of spanning tree of these graphs.
Keywords:
Normalized Laplacian spectrum, normalized Laplacian energy, Kemeny’s constant, spanning tree.
