A new class of sign-symmetric matrices is introduced in this paper. Such matrices are named J--sign-symmetric. The spectrum of a J--sign-symmetric irreducible matrix is studied under assumptions that its second compound matrix is also…

We first describe a system of inequalities (Horn's inequalities) that characterize eigenvalues of sums of Hermitian matrices. When we apply this system for integral Hermitian matrices, one can directly test it by using Littlewood-Richardson…

We investigate connections between the symmetries (automorphisms) of a graph and its spectral properties. Whenever a graph has a symmetry, i.e. a nontrivial automorphism $\phi$, it is possible to use $\phi$ to decompose any matrix…

We show that a nontrivial graph isomorphism problem of two undirected graphs, and more generally, the permutation similarity of two given $n\times n$ matrices, is equivalent to equalities of volumes of the induced three convex bounded…

Let $\eta_{1}\ge \eta_{2}\ge\cdots\ge \eta_{n}$ be the eigenavalues of $\mathcal{ABS}$ matrix. In this paper, we characterize connected graphs with $\mathcal{ABS}$ eigenvalue $\eta_{n}>-1$. As a result, we determine all connected graphs…

An eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph is said to be \emph{main} if the all-1 vector is not orthogonal to the associated eigenspace. In this work, we approach the main eigenvalues of some graphs. The graphs with exactly two main…

Given an $n\times n$ symmetric matrix $W\in [0,1]^{[n]\times [n]}$, let $\mathcal{G}(n,W)$ be the random graph obtained by independently including each edge $jk$ with probability $W_{jk}$. Given a degree sequence ${\bf d}=(d_1,\ldots,…

Answering a question of Jiang and Polyanskii as well as Jiang, Tidor, Yao, Zhang, and Zhao, we show the existence of infinitely many angles $\theta$ for which the maximum number of lines in $\mathbb R^n$ meeting at the origin with pairwise…

Denote the Laplacian of a graph $G$ by $L(G)$ and its second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue by $\lambda_2(G)$. If $G$ is a graph on $n\ge 2$ vertices, then it is shown that the second smallest eigenvalue of $L(G) + \frac{1}{n}…

Charts are oriented labeled graphs in a disk. Any simple surface braid (2-dimensional braid) can be described by using a chart. Also, a chart represents an oriented closed surface embedded in 4-space. In this paper, we investigate embedded…

It is well known that a family of $n\times n$ commuting matrices can be simultaneously triangularized by a unitary similarity transformation. The diagonal entries of the triangular matrices define the $n$ joint eigenvalues of the family. In…

We determine all Hermitian $\mathcal{O}_{\Q(\sqrt{d})}$-matrices for which every eigenvalue is in the interval [-2,2], for each d in {-2,-7,-11,-15\}. To do so, we generalise charged signed graphs to $\mathcal{L}$-graphs for appropriate…

If $A$ is an $n\times n$ matrix whose $n$ eigenvalues are ordered in terms of decreasing modules, $|\lambda_1 | \geq |\lambda_2| \geq ... |\lambda_n|$, it is often of interest to estimate $\frac{|\lambda_2|}{|\lambda_1|}$. If $A$ is a row…

We consider two polytopes. The quadratic assignment polytope $QAP(n)$ is the convex hull of the set of tensors $x\otimes x$, $x \in P_n$, where $P_n$ is the set of $n\times n$ permutation matrices. The second polytope is defined as follows.…

Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and $S$ a subset of vertices of $G$; the boundary of $S$ is the set, $\partial S$, of edges of $G$ connecting $ S $ to its complement in $G$. The isoperimetric number of $G$, is the minimum of $\left|…

In this work, we define an orthogonal graph on the set of equivalence classes of $(2\nu + \delta)-$tuples over $\mathbb{Z}_{2^n}$ where $n$ and $\nu$ are positive integers and $\delta = 0, 1$ or $2$. We classify our graph if it is strongly…
