Abstract
The nullity of a graph G, denoted by η(G), is the multiplicity of the eigenvalue zero in the spectrum of G. A unified approach is presented for the characterization of graphs of order n with η(G) = n−4. All known results on trees, unicyclic graphs, bicyclic graphs, graphs with minimum degree 1, and r-partite graphs, for which η(G) = n−4 are shown to be corollaries of a theorem of Chang, Huang and Yeh that characterizes all graphs with nullity n − 4.

期刊介绍:
MATCH Communications in Mathematical and in Computer Chemistry publishes papers of original research as well as reviews on chemically important mathematical results and non-routine applications of mathematical techniques to chemical problems. A paper acceptable for publication must contain non-trivial mathematics or communicate non-routine computer-based procedures AND have a clear connection to chemistry. Papers are published without any processing or publication charge.
