We consider the problem of detecting communities or modules in networks, groups of vertices with a higher-than-average density of edges connecting them. Previous work indicates that a robust approach to this problem is the maximization of…

Transmission eigenchannels are building blocks of coherent wave transport in diffusive media, and selective excitation of individual eigenchannels can lead to diverse transport behavior. An essential yet poorly understood property is the…

We propose a new random process to construct the eigenvectors of some random operators which make a short and clean connection with the resolvent. In this process the center of localization has to be chosen randomly.

We investigate the problem of enforcing a desired centrality measure in complex networks, while still keeping the original pattern of the network. Specifically, by representing the network as a graph with suitable nodes and weighted edges,…

We prove localization with high probability on sets of size of order $N/\log N$ for the eigenvectors of non-Hermitian finitely banded $N\times N$ Toeplitz matrices $P_N$ subject to small random perturbations, in a very general setting. As…

The Katz centrality of a node in a complex network is a measure of the node's importance as far as the flow of information across the network is concerned. For ensembles of locally tree-like and undirected random graphs, this observable is…

Centrality measures aim to indicate who is important in a network. Various notions of `being important' give rise to different centrality measures. In this paper, we study how important the central vertices are for the connectivity…

Many of the structural characteristics of a network depend on the connectivity with and within the hubs. These dependencies can be related to the degree of a node and the number of links that a node shares with nodes of higher degree. In…

Several expressions for the $j$-th component $\left( x_{k}\right)_{j}$ of the $k$-th eigenvector $x_{k}$ of a symmetric matrix $A$ belonging to eigenvalue $\lambda_{k}$ and normalized as $x_{k}^{T}x_{k}=1$ are presented. In particular, the…

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…

We analyse the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbb G(N,d/N)$ for $\sqrt{\log N} \ll d \lesssim \log N$. We show the existence of a localized phase, where each eigenvector is exponentially localized…

In contrast to the neatly bounded spectra of densely populated large random matrices, sparse random matrices often exhibit unbounded eigenvalue tails on the real and imaginary axis, called Lifshitz tails. In the case of asymmetric matrices,…
