Factorization of the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of a graph
Let $G$ be a regular graph of valence $d$ with finitely many vertices, let $A_G$ be its adjacency matrix, and let $$P_G(X)=\det(X-A_G)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$$ be the adjacency polynomial of $G$, i.e., the ...

Digraphs with unique walk of length $k$ between any two vertices
Let $G$ be a digraph such that there is an unique directed walk of length $k$ between any two vertices.
Equivalently, if $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$, then $A^k$ is the matrix with all entries $...
