Abstract: A k-cyclic graph is a connected graph of order n and size n + k-1. In this paper, we determine the maximal signless Laplacian spectral radius and the corresponding extremal graph among all C4-free k-cyclic graphs of order n. Furthermore, we determine the first three unicycles and bicyclic, C4-free graphs whose spectral radius of the signless Laplacian is maximal. Similar results are obtained for the(combinatorial) Laplacian 

Key words: k-cyclic graph, C4-free, signless Laplacian spectral radius, Laplacian spectral radius
