The spanning $k$-trees, perfect matchings and spectral radius of graphs

Abstract

A $k$-tree is a spanning tree in which every vertex has degree at most $k$. In this paper, we provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a $k$-tree in a connected graph with fixed order in terms of the adjacency spectral radius and the signless Laplacian spectral radius, respectively. Also, we give a similar condition for the existence of a perfect matching in a balanced bipartite graph with fixed order and minimum degree.
