The spectral radius $\rho(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. Woo and Neumaier discovered that a connected graph $G$ with $\rho(G)\leq 3/2{\sqrt{2}}$ is either a dagger, an open quipu, or a closed quipu.…

Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability…

Given a class $\mathcal G$ of graphs, let ${\mathcal G}_n$ denote the set of graphs in $\mathcal G$ on vertex set $[n]$. For certain classes $\mathcal G$, we are interested in the asymptotic behaviour of a random graph $R_n$ sampled…

This is the first in a series of six articles devoted to showing that a typical covering map of large degree to a fixed, regular graph has its new adjacency eigenvalues within the bound conjectured by Alon for random regular graphs. Many of…

Let $\lambda\geq2$ be an integer. For strongly regular graphs with parameters $(v, k, a,c)$ and smallest eigenvalue $-\lambda$, Neumaier gave two bounds on $c$ by using algebraic property of strongly regular graphs. In this paper, we will…

In this note we consider a Ramsey property of random $d$-regular graphs, $\mathcal{G}(n,d)$. Let $r\ge 2$ be fixed. Then w.h.p. the edges of $\mathcal{G}(n, 2r)$ can be colored such that every monochromatic component has size $o(n)$. On the…

We consider an inhomogeneous Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G_N$ with vertex set $[N] = \{1,\dots,N\}$ for which the pair of vertices $i,j \in [N]$, $i\neq j$, is connected by an edge with probability $r_N(\tfrac{i}{N},\tfrac{j}{N})$,…

We study the problem of determining the maximum size of a spherical two-distance set with two fixed angles (one acute and one obtuse) in high dimensions. Let $N_{\alpha,\beta}(d)$ denote the maximum number of unit vectors in $\mathbb R^d$…

We compute the eigenvalue fluctuations of uniformly distributed random biregular bipartite graphs with fixed and growing degrees for a large class of analytic functions. As a key step in the proof, we obtain a total variation distance bound…

Analyzing the spectral behavior of random matrices with dependency among entries is a challenging problem. The adjacency matrix of the random $d$-regular graph is a prominent example that has attracted immense interest. A crucial spectral…

In recent work on equiangular lines, Jiang, Tidor, Yuan, Zhang, and Zhao showed that a connected bounded degree graph has sublinear second eigenvalue multiplicity. More generally they show that there cannot be too many eigenvalues near the…

In this article, we study random graphs with a given degree sequence $d_1, d_2, \cdots, d_n$ from the configuration model. We show that under mild assumptions of the degree sequence, the spectral distribution of the normalized Laplacian…

The irregularity strength of a graph $G$, $s(G)$, is the least $k$ admitting a $\{1,2,\ldots,k\}$-weighting of the edges of $G$ assuring distinct weighted degrees of all vertices, or equivalently the least possible maximal edge multiplicity…

We show that for a graph $G$ with the vertex set $V$ and the largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{\max}(G)$, letting $$ M(G) := \max_{X,Y \subset V} \frac{e(X,Y)}{\sqrt{|X||Y|}} $$ (where $e(X,Y)$ denotes the number of edges between $X$ and $Y$),…

Let $G$ be a connected uniform hypergraphs with maximum degree $\Delta$, spectral radius $\lambda$ and minimum H-eigenvalue $\mu$. In this paper, we give some lower bounds for $\Delta-\lambda$, which extend the result of [S.M. Cioab\u{a},…

Consider the random graph sampled uniformly from the set of all simple graphs with a given degree sequence. Under mild conditions on the degrees, we establish a Large Deviation Principle (LDP) for these random graphs, viewed as elements of…

As it is well known, the spectrum $ {\rm sp\,} \Gamma$ (of the adjacency matrix $A$) of a graph $\Gamma$, with $d$ distinct eigenvalues other than its spectral radius $\lambda_0$, usually provides a lot of information about the structure of…

Let $G$ be a graph with adjacency eigenvalues $\lambda_1 \geq \cdots \geq \lambda_n$. Both $\lambda_1 + \lambda_n$ and the odd girth of $G$ can be seen as measures of the bipartiteness of $G$. Csikv\'ari proved in 2022 that for odd girth 5…

Network geometries are typically characterized by having a finite spectral dimension (SD), $d_{s}$ that characterizes the return time distribution of a random walk on a graph. The main purpose of this work is to determine the SD of a…

Consider a pair of correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\mathcal G(n,\tfrac{\lambda}{n};s)$ that are subsampled from a common parent Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph with average degree $\lambda$ and subsampling probability $s$. We establish a sharp…
