Abstract

In this paper‎, ‎we construct a new class of integral bipartite graphs (not necessarily trees) with large even diameters‎. ‎In fact‎, ‎for every finite set $A$ of positive integers of size $k$ we construct an integral bipartite graph $G$ of diameter $2k$ such that the set of positive eigenvalues of $G$ is exactly $A$‎. ‎This class of integral bipartite graphs has never found before‎.
