The Normalized Laplacian Spectrum Analysis of Fractal Mobius Octagonal Networks and its Applications

Abstract

The study and calculation of spectrum of networks can be used to describe networks structure and quantify analysis of networks performance. The fractal M\"{o}bius octagonal networks, denoted by $Q_n$, is derived from the inverse identification of the opposite lateral edges of fractal linear octagonal networks. In this paper, the normalized Laplacian spectrum of $Q_n$ is determined by two matrices $\mathcal {L}_A$ and $\mathcal {L}_S$. As an important application of our results, some topological indices (multiplicative degree-Kirchhoff index, the number of spanning trees) formulas of $Q_n$ are obtained.
