Bipartite graphs are a fundamental concept in graph theory with diverse applications. A graph is bipartite iff it contains no odd cycles, a characteristic that has many implications in diverse fields ranging from matching problems to the…
A very important problem in combinatorial optimization is partitioning a network into communities of densely connected nodes; where the connectivity between nodes inside a particular community is large compared to the connectivity between…
We investigate combinatorial properties of certain configurations of a graph partition which are related to the minimality of a cut. We show that such configurations are related to the third eigenvector of the Laplacian matrix. It is well…
Community search on bipartite graphs, especially influential community detection, has received significant attention. Existing studies use minimum vertex weights, inadequately reflecting true community influence when some vertices have low…
We study the spectrum of the normalized Laplace operator of a connected graph $\Gamma$. As is well known, the smallest nontrivial eigenvalue measures how difficult it is to decompose $\Gamma$ into two large pieces, whereas the largest…
Community detection is expensive, and the cost generally depends at least linearly on the number of vertices in the graph. We propose working with a reduced graph that has many fewer nodes but nonetheless captures key community structure.…

We study the vertex classification problem on a graph whose vertices are in $k\ (k\geq 2)$ different communities, edges are only allowed between distinct communities, and the number of vertices in different communities are not necessarily…
For a given complex square matrix $A$ with constant row sum, we establish two new eigenvalue inclusion sets. Using these bounds, first we derive bounds for the second largest and smallest eigenvalues of adjacency matrices of $k$-regular…
Spectral techniques have proved amongst the most effective approaches to graph clustering. However, in general they require explicit computation of the main eigenvectors of a suitable matrix (usually the Laplacian matrix of the graph).…
The spectrum of a network or graph $G=(V,E)$ with adjacency matrix $A$, consists of the eigenvalues of the normalized Laplacian $L= I - D^{-1/2} A D^{-1/2}$. This set of eigenvalues encapsulates many aspects of the structure of the graph,…
For a connected graph $\mathcal{G}=(V,E)$ with $n$ nodes, $m$ edges, and Laplacian matrix $\boldsymbol{{\mathit{L}}}$, a grounded Laplacian matrix $\boldsymbol{{\mathit{L}}}(S)$ of $\mathcal{G}$ is a $(n-k) \times (n-k)$ principal submatrix…
The second largest eigenvalue of a graph is an important algebraic parameter which is related with the expansion, connectivity and randomness properties of a graph. Expanders are highly connected sparse graphs. In coding theory, Expander…
A $z$-matching on a bipartite graph is a set of edges, among which each vertex of two types of the graph is adjacent to at most $1$ and at most $z$ ($\geqslant 1$) edges, respectively. The $z$-matching problem concerns finding $z$-matchings…
