We introduce the notion of bipartiteness ratio for graphons. We prove the dual Cheeger-Buser inequality for graphons, which relates the gap between $2$ and the top of the spectrum of the Laplacian of a graphon with its bipartiteness ratio.…

The main paradigm of smoothed analysis on graphs suggests that for any large graph $G$ in a certain class of graphs, perturbing slightly the edges of $G$ at random (usually adding few random edges to $G$) typically results in a graph having…

We describe a construction that maps any connected graph G on three or more vertices into a larger graph, H(G), whose independence number is strictly smaller than its Lov\'asz number which is equal to its fractional packing number. The…

The \textit{$r$-dynamic choosability} of a graph $G$, written ${\rm ch}_r(G)$, is the least $k$ such that whenever each vertex is assigned a list of at least $k$ colors a proper coloring can be chosen from the lists so that every vertex $v$…

We prove that every graph with average degree $d$ and smallest adjacency eigenvalue $|\lambda_n|\leq d^{\gamma}$ contains a clique of size $d^{1-O(\gamma)}$. A simple corollary of this yields the first polynomial bound for Chowla's cosine…

We investigate a class of line ensembles whose local structure is described by independent geometric random walk bridges, which have been conditioned to interlace with each other. The latter arise naturally in the context Schur processes,…

It was recently shown by Lubetzky and Peres (2016) and by Sardari (2018) that Ramanujan graphs, i.e., graphs with the optimal spectrum, exhibit cutoff of the simple random walk in an optimal time and have an optimal almost-diameter. We show…

A matching cut in a graph G is an edge cut of G that is also a matching. This short survey gives an overview of old and new results and open problems for Maximum Matching Cut, which is to determine the size of a largest matching cut in a…

Given a simple graph $G$, its Laplacian-energy-like invariant $LEL(G)$ and incidence energy $IE(G)$ are the sum of square root of its all Laplacian eigenvalues and signless Laplacian eigenvalues, respectively. Applying the Cauchy-Schwarz…

In this paper, we introduce Cheeger type constants via isocapacitary constants introduced by Maz'ya to estimate first Dirichlet, Neumann and Steklov eigenvalues on a finite subgraph of a graph. Moreover, we estimate the bottom of the…

The minimum number of observations such that the maximum likelihood estimator in a Gaussian graphical model exists with probability one is called the maximum likelihood threshold of the underlying graph G. The natural algebraic relaxation…

In this article we study the top of the spectrum of the normalized Laplace operator on infinite graphs. We introduce the dual Cheeger constant and show that it controls the top of the spectrum from above and below in a similar way as the…

We prove a new generalization of the higher-order Cheeger inequality for partitioning with buffers. Consider a graph $G=(V,E)$. The buffered expansion of a set $S \subseteq V$ with a buffer $B \subseteq V \setminus S$ is the edge expansion…

A temporal graph $G$ is a sequence $(G_t)_{t \in I}$ of graphs on the same vertex set of size $n$. The \emph{temporal exploration problem} asks for the length of the shortest sequence of vertices that starts at a given vertex, visits every…

We prove that for every planar convex set $\Omega$, the function $t\in (-r(\Omega),+\infty)\longmapsto \sqrt{|\Omega_t|}h(\Omega_t)$ is monotonically decreasing, where $r$, $|\cdot|$ and $h$ stand for the inradius, the measure and the…

In this paper we consider higher isoperimetric numbers of a (finite directed) graph. In this regard we focus on the $n$th mean isoperimetric constant of a directed graph as the minimum of the mean outgoing normalized flows from a given set…

We show that on compact Riemann surfaces of nonpositive curvature, the generalized periods, i.e. the $\nu$-th order Fourier coefficients of eigenfunctions $e_\lambda$ over a closed smooth curve $\gamma$ which satisfies a natural curvature…

A graph is called equimatchable if all of its maximal matchings have the same size. Frendrup et al. [8] provided a characterization of equimatchable graphs with girth at least $5$. In this paper, we extend this result by providing a…

The ultimate independence ratio of a graph $G$ is defined as $\mathscr{I}(G) = \lim_{k\rightarrow\infty } \frac{\alpha(G^{\Box k})}{|V(G)|^k},$ where $\alpha(G^{\Box k})$ is the independence number of the Cartesian product of $k$ copies of…

A randomly walking quantum particle evolving by Schr\"odinger's equation searches on $d$-dimensional cubic lattices in $O(\sqrt{N})$ time when $d \ge 5$, and with progressively slower runtime as $d$ decreases. This suggests that graph…
