Abstract

For Hermitian matrices, whose graph is a given tree, the relationships among vertex degrees, multiple eigenvalues and the relative position of the underlying eigenvalue in the ordered spectrum are discussed in detail. In the process, certain aspects of special vertices, whose removal results in an increase in multiplicity are investigated.
