Abstract
A signed graph Σ is a graph whose edges yield the signs ±1. Let be the complete graph with n vertices and be a signed complete graph, where F is a subgraph induced by the negative edges of Σ. The least Laplacian eigenvalue of Σ is the least eigenvalue of its Laplacian matrix. A unicyclic graph is a connected graph containing exactly one cycle. In this paper, we focus on the least Laplacian eigenvalue of , where F is a unicyclic graph.
