The non-backtracking operator of a graph is a powerful tool in spectral graph theory and random matrix theory. Most existing results for the non-backtracking operator of a random graph concern only eigenvalues or top eigenvectors. In this…

Much effort has been spent on characterizing the spectrum of the non-backtracking matrix of certain classes of graphs, with special emphasis on the leading eigenvalue or the second eigenvector. Much less attention has been paid to the…

Motivated by community detection, we characterise the spectrum of the non-backtracking matrix $B$ in the Degree-Corrected Stochastic Block Model. Specifically, we consider a random graph on $n$ vertices partitioned into two equal-sized…

Quantum physics is generally concerned with real eigenvalues due to the unitarity of time evolution. With the introduction of $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry, a widely accepted consensus is that, even if the Hamiltonian of the system is not…

The spectrum of the non-backtracking matrix plays a crucial role in determining various structural and dynamical properties of networked systems, ranging from the threshold in bond percolation and non-recurrent epidemic processes, to…

In case of sparse graphs, relation between the real eigenvalues of the non-backtracking matrix and those of the non-backtracking transition probability matrix is considered with respect to vertex clustering. For this purpose, the random…

We study the spectrum of unbounded J-self-adjoint block operator matrices. In particular, we prove enclosures for the spectrum, provide a sufficient condition for the spectrum being real and derive variational principles for certain real…

We consider the problem of how to compute eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator when a direct application of the Galerkin (finite-section) method is unreliable. The last two decades have seen the development of the so-called quadratic…

It is shown that the matrix models which give non-perturbative definitions of string and M theory may be interpreted as non-local hidden variables theories in which the quantum observables are the eigenvalues of the matrices while their…

The aim of this paper is to study the existence of eigenvalues in the gap of the essential spectrum of the one-dimensional Dirac operator in the presence of a bounded potential. We employ a generalized variational principle to prove…

Nonlinear eigenvalue problems arise in a wide range of physical systems, in which system parameters depend on the eigenvalue. Such systems have been proposed to exhibit an extreme sensitivity of their spectra to boundary conditions, which…

In this paper we consider the Bloch eigenvalues and spectrum of the non-self-adjoint differential operator L generated by the differential expression of odd order n with the periodic PT-symmetric coefficients, where n>1. We study the…

The purpose of this paper is to prove that the spectrum of the non-self-adjoint one-particle Hamiltonian proposed by J. Feinberg and A. Zee (Phys. Rev. E 59 (1999), 6433--6443) has interior points. We do this by first recalling that the…

In this article, the existence of the spectrum (the eigenvalues) for the nonlinear continuous operators acting in the Banach spaces is investigated. For the study, this question is used a different approach that allows the studying of all…

In this paper, we investigate the eigenvalue problem for a non-local dispersal operator defined on a bounded spatial domain with Neumann-type boundary conditions. Unlike the classical Laplacian, the non-local operator lacks compactness,…

Let $T : \Omega \rightarrow \bbC^{n \times n}$ be a matrix-valued function that is analytic on some simply-connected domain $\Omega \subset \bbC$. A point $\lambda \in \Omega$ is an eigenvalue if the matrix $T(\lambda)$ is singular. In this…

In the first part of this manuscript a relationship between the spectrum of self-adjoint operator matrices and the spectra of their diagonal entries is found. This leads to enclosures for spectral points and in particular, enclosures for…

There has been much recent interest, initiated by work of the physicists Hatano and Nelson, in the eigenvalues of certain random non-Hermitian periodic tridiagonal matrices and their bidiagonal limits. These eigenvalues cluster along a…

This paper is concerned with {an extension and reinterpretation} of previous results on the variational characterization of eigenvalues in gaps of the essential spectrum of self-adjoint operators. {We state} two general abstract results on…
