Abstract
Let $\mathscr {L}_{n,t}$ be the set of all $n$-vertex connected graphs with clique number $t$ $(2\leq t\leq n)$. For $n$-vertex connected graphs with given clique number, lexicographic ordering by spectral moments ($S$-order) is discussed in this paper. The first $\sum _{i=1}^{\lfloor ({n-t-1})/{3}\rfloor }(n-t-3i)+1$ graphs with $3\le t\le n-4$, and the last few graphs, in the $S$-order, among $\mathscr {L}_{n,t}$ are characterized. In addition, all graphs in $\mathscr {L}_{n,n}\bigcup \mathscr {L}_{n,n-1}$ have an $S$-order; for the cases $t=n-2$ and $t=n-3$, the first three and the first seven graphs in the set $\mathscr {L}_{n,t}$ are characterized, respectively.
