The distance matrix $D(G)=(d_{ij})_{n\\times n}$ is the matrix indexed by the vertices of $G,$ where $d_{ij}$ denotes the distance between the vertices $v_{i}$ and $v_{j}$. Suppose that $\\lambda_{1}(D)\\geq\\lambda_{2}(D)\\geq\\cdots\\geq\\lambda_{n}(D)$ are the distance spectrum of $G$. The graph $G$ is said to be determined by its $D$-spectrum if with respect to the distance matrix $D(G)$, any graph having the same spectrum as $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we give the distance characteristic polynomial of some graphs with small diameter, and also prove that these graphs are determined by their $D$-spectra.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-28T11:30:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C50" ], "keywords": [ "small diameter", "distance matrix", "distance characteristic polynomial", "distance spectrum", "vertex set" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150507651X" } } }
