We study the space complexity of sketching cuts and Laplacian quadratic forms of graphs. We show that any data structure which approximately stores the sizes of all cuts in an undirected graph on $n$ vertices up to a $1+\epsilon$ error must…

We study Nordhaus-Gaddum problems for Kemeny's constant $\mathcal{K}(G)$ of a connected graph $G$. We prove bounds on $\min\{\mathcal{K}(G),\mathcal{K}(\overline{G})\}$ and the product $\mathcal{K}(G)\mathcal{K}(\overline{G})$ for various…

Given a Riemannian manifold, Weyl's law indicates how the spectrum of the Laplacian behaves asymptotically. Because of that result, there has been a growing interest in finding geometrical bounds compatible with this law. In the case of…

In this paper, we study the entries of the principal eigenvector of the signless Laplacian matrix of a hypergraph. More precisely, we obtain bounds for this entries. These bounds are computed trough other important parameters, such as…

We develop eigenvalue estimates for the Laplacians on discrete and metric graphs using different types of boundary conditions at the vertices of the metric graph. Via an explicit correspondence of the equilateral metric and discrete graph…

In this note we elaborate on some notions of surface area for discrete graphs which are closely related to the inverse degree. These notions then naturally lead to associated connectivity measures of graphs and to the definition of a…

Many inequality relations between real vector quantities can be succinctly expressed as "weak (sub)majorization" relations. We explain these ideas and apply them in several areas: angles between subspaces, Ritz values, and graph Laplacian…

We consider the Laplacian on a metric graph, equipped with Robin ($\delta$-type) vertex condition at some of the graph vertices and Neumann-Kirchhoff condition at all others. The corresponding eigenvalues are called Robin eigenvalues,…

For a Riemannian closed spin manifold and under some topological assumption (non-zero $\hat{A}$-genus or enlargeability in the sense of Gromov-Lawson), we give an optimal upper bound for the infimum of the scalar curvature in terms of the…

The imbalance of an edge $e=\{u,v\}$ in a graph is defined as $i(e)=|d(u)-d(v)|$, where $d(\cdot)$ is the vertex degree. The irregularity $I(G)$ of $G$ is then defined as the sum of imbalances over all edges of $G$. This concept was…

The $k$-th Laplacian spectral moment of a digraph $G$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^n \lambda_i^k$, where $\lambda_i$ are the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of $G$ and $k$ is a nonnegative integer. For $k=2$, this invariant is better known…

We study the spectral gap of the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph through the connectivity threshold. In particular, we show that for any fixed $\delta > 0$ if $$p \ge \frac{(1/2 + \delta) \log n}{n},$$ then the normalized graph Laplacian of…
