  4. 1 3 2 Basic definitions • Characteristic polynomial:P(G,x)=det(xIn-A(G)). • Integral graph: A graph G is called integral if all the zeros of the characteristic polynomial P(G,x) are integers. • Example 2. P(K3,x)=det(xI3-A(K3))=(x+1)2(x-2)

  8. History of integral graphs • Integral cubic graphs,Bussemaker, Cvetković(1975), Schwenk(1978) • Integral complete multipartite graphs,Roitman, (1984). Wang, Li and Hoede, (2004), • Integral graphs with maximum degree 4.Radosavljević,Simić, (1986). Balińska,Simić , (2001). Simić , Zwierzyński, (2004),etc.

  9. History of integral graphs • Integral 4-regular graphs,Cvetković, Simić, Stevanović(1998,1999,2003) • Integral trees.Watanabe, Schwenk, (1979); Li and Lin, (1987); Liu, (1988); Cao (1988, 1991) ; P. Hĺc and R. Nedela, (1998); Wang, Li and Liu, (1999); Wang, Li (2000,2004) ; P. Hĺc and and M. Pokornў, (2003),etc.

  10. Our main resultsIntegral complete multi-partite graphs • In 1984, an infinite family of integral complete tripartite graphs was constructed by Roitman. (Roitman, An infinite family of integral graphs, Discrete Math. 52 (1984) • In 2001, Balińska and Simić remarked that the general problem seems to be intractable. (Balińska and Simić, The nonregular, bipartite, integral graphs with maximum degree 4. Part I: basic properties, Discrete Math. 236 (2001). • In 2004, we give a sufficient and necessary condition for complete r-partite graphs to be integral, from which we can construct infinitely many new classes of such integral graphs.
