Abstract

In this note, we use a procedure, proposed in [Bianchi, M., and A. Torriero, Some localization theorems using a majorization technique, Journal of Inequalities and Applications 5 (2000), 433-446], based on a majorization technique, which localizes real eigenvalues of a matrix of order n. Through this information, we compute a lower bound for the Kirchhoff index (see [Bianchi M., A. Cornaro, J.L. Palacios and A. Torriero, Bounds for the Kirkhhoff index via majorization techniques, Journal of Mathematical Chemistry, (2012) online first]) that takes advantage of additional eigenvalues bounds. An algorithm has been developed with MATLAB software to evaluate the above mentioned bound. Finally, numerical examples are provided showing how tighter results can be obtained.
