Further results on color energy of graphs. (English) Zbl 1380.05067
Summary: Given a colored graph $$G$$, its color energy $$\mathsf{E}_{\mathsf{c}}(G)$$ is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of the color matrix of $$G$$. The concept of color energy was introduced by C. Adiga et al. [Proc. Jangjeon Math. Soc. 16, No. 3, 335–351 (2013; Zbl 1306.05140)]. In this article, we obtain some new bounds for the color energy of graphs and establish relationship between color energy $$\mathsf{E}_{\mathsf{c}}(G)$$ and energy $$\mathsf{E}(G)$$ of a graph $$G$$. Further, we construct some new families of graphs in which one is non-co-spectral color-equienergetic with some families of graphs and another is color-hyperenergetic. Also we derive explicit formulas for their color energies.
