How to Distinguish Cospectral Graphs
We introduce a generalized adjacency matrix in order to distinguish cospectral graphs. Our reasoning is motivated by the work of Johnson and Newman and properties of <i>p</i>-adic numbers. Using a polynomial time algorithm, we comment on computer experiments with which we can distinguish...

description | We introduce a generalized adjacency matrix in order to distinguish cospectral graphs. Our reasoning is motivated by the work of Johnson and Newman and properties of <i>p</i>-adic numbers. Using a polynomial time algorithm, we comment on computer experiments with which we can distinguish cospectral (non-isomorphic) graphs. |
