Abstract

Let G=(V,E) be a simple graph, μ(G) be the highest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix and wk denote the number of walks of lenght k (≥0). In literature lower bounds for μ(G) have been given in terms of the ratio w_(k+l)/w_k when k is even and for each l. In this work we will show that for regular, harmonic, semiregular and pseudosemiregular graphs the ratio w_(k+l)/w_k gives a bound for μ(G) also when k is odd. In particular for regular and harmonic graphs, for each k, l it holds that μ(G)=√(l&w_(k+l)/w_k ). For semiregular and pseudosemiregular graphs if k is odd and l is even then μ(G)=√(l&w_(k+l)/w_k ), while if both k and l are odd μ(G)<√(l&w_(k+l)/w_k ) obtaining an upper bound for μ(G)
