Abstract: A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices $v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_n$ is said to be harmonic if $(d(v_1),d(v_2),\ldots,d(v_n))^t$ is an eigenvector of its $(0,1)$-adjacency matrix, where $d(v_i)$ is the degree (= number of first neighbors) of the vertex $v_i , \ i=1,2,\ldots,n$\,. Earlier all acyclic, unicyclic, bicyclic and tricyclic harmonic graphs were characterized. We now show that there are 2 regular and 18 non-regular connected tetracyclic harmonic graphs and determine their structures.

Keywords: Harmonic graphs, Spectra (of graphs), Walks

Classification (MSC2000): 05C50, 05C75
