We use two variational techniques to prove upper bounds for sums of the lowest several eigenvalues of matrices associated with finite, simple, combinatorial graphs. These include estimates for the adjacency matrix of a graph and for both…

Inspired by persistent homology in topological data analysis, we introduce the homological eigenvalues of the graph $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_p$, which allows us to analyse and classify non-variational eigenvalues. We show the stability of…
