Locating Eigenvalues of Perturbed Laplacian Matrices of Trees

ABSTRACT We give a linear time algorithm to compute the number of eigenvalues of any perturbed Laplacian matrix of a tree in a given real interval. The algorithm can be applied to weighted or unweighted trees. Using our method we characterize the trees that have up to 5 distinct eigenvalues with respect to a family of perturbed Laplacian matrices that includes the adjacency and normalized Laplacian matrices as special cases, among others.
