Let G [ F, V k , H v ] be the graph with k pockets, where F is a simple graph of order n  ≥ 1, V k = { v 1 , … , v k } is a subset of the vertex set of F and H v is a simple graph of order m  ≥ 2, v is a specified vertex of H v . Also let G [ F, E k , H uv ] be the graph with k edge-pockets, where F is a simple graph of order n  ≥ 2, E k = { e 1 , … , e k } is a subset of the edge set of F and H uv is a simple graph of order m  ≥ 3, uv is a specified edge of H uv such that H u v − u is isomorphic to H u v − v . In this paper, we obtain some results describing the signless Laplacian spectra of G [ F, V k , H v ] and G [ F, E k , H uv ] in terms of the signless Laplacian spectra of F, H v and F, H uv , respectively. In addition, we also give some results describing the adjacency spectrum of G [ F, V k , H v ] in terms of the adjacency spectra of F, H v . Finally, as many applications of these results, we construct infinitely many pairs of signless Laplacian (resp. adjacency) cospectral graphs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: The energy of a digraph D is defined as , where are the (possibly complex) eigenvalues of D. In this paper, we first give an improved lower bound on the spectral radius of the digraph D. Using this result, we obtain a new upper bound on the energy and characterize some extreme digraphs which attain this upper bound. This result theoretically improves and generalizes some known results. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
