Aug 10, 2011 at 22:15 comment added Noam D. Elkies Sorry, I indeed meant the adjacency matrix. If the graphs have constant degree then this also yields the spectrum of the graph Laplacian, but in general it's a different question.

Aug 10, 2011 at 21:30 comment added Jernej I believe this pdf refers to the spectrum of the adjacency matrix and not the Laplacian. Otherwise I do not see how the eigenvalues of the tensor products are $\lambda_i \cdot \mu_j$ since this would immediately imply the tensor product is never connected - a contradiction.

Aug 10, 2011 at 20:41 comment added Jernej Wouldn't that imply that the tensor product is always disconencted, since the multiplicty of the eigenvalue 0 in the Laplacian of $G$, counts the number of connected components in $G$?
Aug 10, 2011 at 19:34 comment added Noam D. Elkies For the tensor product it's $\lambda_i \cdot \mu_j$ (special case of the spectrum of the tensor product of any two linear operators).
