Let $v(k, \lambda)$ be the maximum number of vertices of a connected $k$-regular graph with second largest eigenvalue at most $\lambda$. The Alon-Boppana Theorem implies that $v(k, \lambda)$ is finite when $k > \frac{\lambda^2 + 4}{4}$. In…

Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices with diameter $d$. It is known that if $2\le d\le n-2$, there are at most $n-d$ Laplacian eigenvalues in the interval $[n-d+2, n]$. In this paper, we show that if $1\le d\le n-3$, there are at…

The largest eigenvalue of a matrix is always larger or equal than its largest diagonal entry. We show that for a large class of random Laplacian matrices, this bound is essentially tight: the largest eigenvalue is, up to lower order terms,…
