A matrix-weighted graph is an undirected graph with a $k\times k$ positive semidefinite matrix assigned to each edge. There are natural generalizations of the Laplacian and adjacency matrices for such graphs. These matrices can be used to…

Consider any random graph model where potential edges appear independently, with possibly different probabilities, and assume that the minimum expected degree is omega(ln n). We prove that the adjacency matrix and the Laplacian of that…

Based on matrix perturbation theory, closed-form analytic expansions are studied for a Laplacian eigenvalue of an undirected, possibly weighted graph, which is close to a unique degree in that graph. An approximation is presented to provide…

In \cite{Elek} we proved that the limit of a weakly convergent sequence of finite graphs can be viewed as a graphing or a continuous field of infinite graphs. Thus one can associate a type $II_1$-von Neumann algebra to such graph sequences.…

Let $V$ be a finite set, $E \subset 2^{V} $ be a set of hyperedges, and $w : E \to (0, \infty)$ be an edge weight. On the (wighted) hypergraph $G = (V ,E ,w )$, we can define a multivalued nonlinear operator $L_{G,p}$ ($p \in [1 ,\infty )$)…

Let $D(G)$ denote the distance matrix of a connected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices. The distance spectral gap of a graph $G$ is defined as $\delta_{D^G} = \rho_1 - \rho_2$, where $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ represent the largest and second largest…
