We give an upper bound on the maximal eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a connected graph in terms of its maximum degree, diameter and order. This bound is best possible up to a constant factor and improves prevoius results of…

A large variety of dynamical processes that take place on networks can be expressed in terms of the spectral properties of some linear operator which reflects how the dynamical rules depend on the network topology. Often such spectral…

We consider highly heterogeneous random networks with symmetric interactions in the limit of high connectivity. A key feature of this system is that the spectral density of the corresponding ensemble exhibits a divergence within the bulk.…

All networks can be analyzed at multiple scales. A higher scale of a network is made up of macro-nodes: subgraphs that have been grouped into individual nodes. Recasting a network at higher scales can have useful effects, such as decreasing…
