Let p ≥ 3 be a positive integer and let k ∈ {1, 2, . . . p − 1}\ p/2 . The generalized Petersen graph GP ((p, k) has its vertex and edge set asIn this paper we probe its spectrum and determine the Estrada index, Laplacian Estrada index, signless Laplacian Estrada index, normalized Laplacian Estrada index, and energy of a graph. While obtaining some interesting results, we also provide relevant background and problems.
