We conjecture that finite graphs with positive Cheeger constant admit a spanning subgraph with positive Cheeger constant and girth proportional to the diameter. We prove this conjecture for regular expander graphs with large expansion. Our…
We investigate the bottom of the spectra of infinite quantum graphs, i.e., Laplace operators on metric graphs having infinitely many edges and vertices. We introduce a new definition of the isoperimetric constant for quantum graphs and then…
We establish some important inequalities under a lower weighted Ricci curvature bound on Finsler manifolds. Firstly, we establish a relative volume comparison of Bishop-Gromov type. As one of the applications, we obtain an upper bound for…
In this paper, we consider a variation on Cheeger numbers related to the coboundary expanders recently defined by Dotterer and Kahle. A Cheeger-type inequality is proved, which is similar to a result on graphs due to Fan Chung. This…
On a compact metric graph, we consider the spectrum of the Laplacian defined with a mix of standard and Dirichlet vertex conditions. A Cheeger-type lower bound on the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ is established, with a constant that depends…
We revisit classical eigenvalue inequalities due to Buser, Cheng, and Gromov on closed Riemannian manifolds, and prove the versions of these results for the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary value problems. Eigenvalue multiplicity bounds and…
Given a graph with a designated set of boundary vertices, we define a new notion of a Neumann Laplace operator on a graph using a reflection principle. We show that the first eigenvalue of this Neumann graph Laplacian satisfies a Cheeger…
In \cite{Elek} we proved that the limit of a weakly convergent sequence of finite graphs can be viewed as a graphing or a continuous field of infinite graphs. Thus one can associate a type $II_1$-von Neumann algebra to such graph sequences.…
We express the discrete Ricci curvature of a graph as the minimal eigenvalue of a family of matrices, one for each vertex of a graph whose entries depend on the local adjaciency structure of the graph. Using this method we compute or bound…
Cheeger's inequality shows that any undirected graph $G$ with minimum nonzero normalized Laplacian eigenvalue $\lambda_G$ has a cut with conductance at most $O(\sqrt{\lambda_G})$. Qualitatively, Cheeger's inequality says that if the…
We derive Cheeger inequalities for directed graphs and hypergraphs using the reweighted eigenvalue approach that was recently developed for vertex expansion in undirected graphs [OZ22,KLT22,JPV22]. The goal is to develop a new spectral…
We develop a nonlinear spectral graph theory, in which the Laplace operator is replaced by the 1-Laplacian ?$\Delta_1$. The eigenvalue problem is to solve a nonlinear system involving a set valued function. In the study, we investigate the…
In this paper we study spectra of Laplacians of infinite weighted graphs. Instead of the assumption of local finiteness we impose the condition of summability of the weight function. Such graphs correspond to reversible Markov chains with…
We study the Cheeger constant and Cheeger set for domains obtained as strip-like neighbourhoods of curves in the plane. If the reference curve is complete and finite (a "curved annulus"), then the strip itself is a Cheeger set and the…
We prove distance bounds for graphs possessing positive Bakry-\'Emery curvature apart from an exceptional set, where the curvature is allowed to be non-positive. If the set of non-positively curved vertices is finite, then the graph admits…
Let $B_2(p)$ be an $n$-dimensional smooth geodesic ball with Ricci curvature $\geq-(n-1)\kappa^2$ for some $\kappa\geq0$. We establish the Sobolev inequality and the uniform Neumann-Poincar\'e inequality on each minimal graph over $B_1(p)$…
We derive an optimal eigenvalue ratio estimate for finite weighted graphs satisfying the curvature-dimension inequality $CD(0,\infty)$. This estimate is independent of the size of the graph and provides a general method to obtain higher…
We study some equivalent properties of the curvature-dimension conditions $CD(n,K)$ inequality on infinite, but locally finite graph. These equivalences are gradient estimate, Poincar\'e type inequalities and reverse Poincar\'e…
The classical Cheeger's inequality relates the edge conductance $\phi$ of a graph and the second smallest eigenvalue $\lambda_2$ of the Laplacian matrix. Recently, Olesker-Taylor and Zanetti discovered a Cheeger-type inequality $\psi^2 /…
