Extremal Q-index problem in outerplanar graphs

Abstract

Outerplanar Tur\'an problem has received considerable attention recently. We study the spectral version via Q-index. We determine the unique graph that maximizes the Q-index among all n-vertex connected outerplanar graphs which are respectively forbidden to contain: (i) a fixed cycle; and (ii) the disjoint union of paths of a given order.
