A graph G is said to be determined by its generalized spectrum (DGS for short) if for any graph H, H and G are cospectral with cospectral complements implies that H is isomorphic to G. Let (G) over cap be the graph obtained from G by adding a pendent edge at every vertex of G. We show that (G) over cap is DGS if and only if G is DGS for some graph G. This gives a simple way to construct large DGS, graphs from small ones explicitly. In particular, we show that every graph in the infinite sequence G, (G) over cap, (G) over cap, . . . is DOS, for some DGS graph G.
