Bounds on the entries of the principal eigenvector of the distance signless Laplacian matrix.

The distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of a connected graph G is the largest eigenvalue of the distance signless Laplacian matrix of G , defined as D Q ( G ) = T r ( G ) + D ( G ) , where D ( G ) is the distance matrix of G and T r ( G ) is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions of G . In this paper we determine upper and lower bounds on the minimal and maximal entries of the principal eigenvector of D Q ( G ) and characterize the extremal graphs. In addition, we obtain a lower bound on the distance signless Laplacian spectral radius of G based on its order and independence number, and characterize the extremal graph. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
