Let \phi(G) be the minimum conductance of an undirected graph G, and let 0=\lambda_1 <= \lambda_2 <=... <= \lambda_n <= 2 be the eigenvalues of the normalized Laplacian matrix of G. We prove that for any graph G and any k >= 2, \phi(G) =…
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,…

Let G=(V,E) be an undirected graph, lambda_k be the k-th smallest eigenvalue of the normalized laplacian matrix of G. There is a basic fact in algebraic graph theory that lambda_k > 0 if and only if G has at most k-1 connected components.…

We study the existence and construction of sparse supports for hypergraphs derived from subgraphs of a graph $G$. For a hypergraph $(X,\mathcal{H})$, a support $Q$ is a graph on $X$ s.t. $Q[H]$, the graph induced on vertices in $H$ is…
We consider the following two algorithmic problems: given a graph $G$ and a subgraph $H\subseteq G$, decide whether $H$ is an isometric or a geodesically convex subgraph of $G$. It is relatively easy to see that the problems can be solved…
For a function $\mathsf{K} : \mathbb{R}^{d} \times \mathbb{R}^{d} \to \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$, and a set $P = \{ x_1, \ldots, x_n\} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of $n$ points, the $\mathsf{K}$ graph $G_P$ of $P$ is the complete graph on $n$ nodes…
A \emph{tree cut-sparsifier} $T$ of quality $\alpha$ of a graph $G$ is a single tree that preserves the capacities of all cuts in the graph up to a factor of $\alpha$. A \emph{tree flow-sparsifier} $T$ of quality $\alpha$ guarantees that…

In the {\em nonuniform sparsest cut} problem, given two undirected graphs $G$ and $H$ over the same set of vertices $V$, we want to find a cut $(S,V-S)$ that minimizes the ratio between the fraction of $G$-edges that are cut and the…
We present the first almost-linear time algorithm for constructing linear-sized spectral sparsification for graphs. This improves all previous constructions of linear-sized spectral sparsification, which requires $\Omega(n^2)$ time. A key…
Spectral graph sparsification aims to find ultra-sparse subgraphs which can preserve spectral properties of original graphs. In this paper, a new spectral criticality metric based on trace reduction is first introduced for identifying…
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a subgraph $H$ is an \emph{additive $+\beta$ spanner} if $\dist_H(u,v) \le \dist_G(u,v) + \beta$ for all $u, v \in V$. A \emph{pairwise spanner} is a spanner for which the above inequality only must hold for…

In the problem (Unweighted) Max-Cut we are given a graph $G = (V,E)$ and asked for a set $S \subseteq V$ such that the number of edges from $S$ to $V \setminus S$ is maximal. In this paper we consider an even harder problem: (Weighted)…
