The eccentricity (anti-adjacency) matrix $\varepsilon(G)$ of a graph $G$ is obtained from the distance matrix by retaining the eccentricities in each row and each column. This matrix is first defined in 2018 by Wang et al. \cite{1}. In this…

The \textit{toughness} $t(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a measure of its connectivity that is closely related to Hamiltonicity. Brouwer proved the lower bound $t(G) > \ell / \lambda - 2$ on the toughness of any connected $\ell$-regular graph, where…

We consider the problem of estimating a network's eigenvector centrality only from data on the nodes, with no information about network topology. Leveraging the versatility of graph filters to model network processes, data supported on the…

Graphs (i.e., networks) have become an integral tool for the representation and analysis of relational data. Advances in data gathering have lead to multi-relational data sets which exhibit greater depth and scope. In certain cases, this…

It is well known that the algebraic multiplicity of an eigenvalue of a graph (or real symmetric matrix) is equal to the dimension of its corresponding linear eigen-subspace, also known as the geometric multiplicity. However, for…

Here we have investigated a few properties of the eigenvalues of normalized (geometric) graph Laplacian in different graphs. Preservation of eigenvalue 1 from a particular subgraph to the entire graph, the spectrum of the graph constructed…

Hypergraphs have been a powerful tool to represent higher-order interactions, where hyperedges can connect an arbitrary number of nodes. Quantifying the relative importance of nodes and hyperedges in hypergraphs is a fundamental problem in…

The discriminant power of centrality indices for the degree, eigenvector, closeness, betweenness and subgraph centrality is analyzed. It is defined by the number of graphs for which the standard deviation of the centrality of its nodes is…

A metrized graph is a finite weighted graph whose edges are thought of as line segments. In this expository paper, we study the Laplacian operator on a metrized graph and some important functions related to it, including the ``j-function'',…

The eigenvectors for graph $1$-Laplacian possess some sort of localization property: On one hand, any nodal domain of an eigenvector is again an eigenvector with the same eigenvalue; on the other hand, one can pack up an eigenvector for a…

Centrality indices are used to rank the nodes of a graph by importance: this is a common need in many concrete situations (social networks, citation networks, web graphs, for instance) and it was discussed many times in sociology,…

We show that eigenvector centrality exhibits localization phenomena on networks that can be easily partitioned by the removal of a vertex cut set, the most extreme example being networks with a cut vertex. Three distinct types of…

We initiate a systematic study of eigenvectors of random graphs. Whereas much is known about eigenvalues of graphs and how they reflect properties of the underlying graph, relatively little is known about the corresponding eigenvectors. Our…

We analyse the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of a random inhomogeneous graph constructed from a specified degree sequence. We assume that the empirical degree sequence has bounded mean and variance. We show that near the edges of the…

In this paper we study the inverse eigenvector centrality problem on directed graphs: given a prescribed node centrality profile, we seek edge weights that realize it. Since this inverse problem generally admits infinitely many solutions,…
