Graphical designs are subsets of vertices of a graph that perfectly average a selected set of eigenvectors of the Graph Laplacian. We show that in highly-structured graphs, graphical designs can coincide with highly structured and…

A certain signed adjacency matrix of the hypercube, which Hao Huang used last year to resolve the sensitivity conjecture, is closely related to the unique, 4-cycle free, 2-fold cover of the hypercube. We develop a framework in which this…

We present a graph model for a background independent, relational approach to spacetime emergence. The general idea and the graph main features, detailed in [1], are discussed. This is a combinatorial (dynamical) metric graph, colored on…

The combinatorial Hopf algebra on building sets $BSet$ extends the chromatic Hopf algebra of simple graphs. The image of a building set under canonical morphism to quasi-symmetric functions is the chromatic symmetric function of the…

Unlike an irreducible $Z$-matrices, a weakly irreducible $Z$-tensor $\mathcal{A}$ can have more than one eigenvector associated with the least H-eigenvalue. We show that there are finitely many eigenvectors of $\mathcal{A}$ associated with…

Let $G$ be a simple graph, $A(G)$ its adjacency matrix, and $D(G)$ its diagonal degree matrix. In 2022, \citeauthor{Wang2020} (\cite{Wang2020}) defined the family of matrices $L_\alpha$ as the convex linear combination: \[ L_\alpha(G) =…

Here, we represent a general hypergraph by a matrix and study its spectrum. We extend the definition of equitable partition and joining operation for hypergraphs, and use those to compute eigenvalues of different hypergraphs. We derive the…

Many complex systems involve interactions between more than two agents. Hypergraphs capture these higher-order interactions through hyperedges that may link more than two nodes. We consider the problem of embedding a hypergraph into…

In this paper, we propose algorithms for the graph isomorphism (GI) problem that are based on the eigendecompositions of the adjacency matrices. The eigenvalues of isomorphic graphs are identical. However, two graphs $ G_A $ and $ G_B $ can…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a uniform hypergraph. Let $\mathcal{A(H)}$ and $\mathcal{Q(H)}$ be the adjacency tensor and the signless Laplacian tensor of $\mathcal{H}$, respectively. In this note we prove several bounds for the spectral radius of…

The second largest eigenvalue of a graph is an important algebraic parameter which is related with the expansion, connectivity and randomness properties of a graph. Expanders are highly connected sparse graphs. In coding theory, Expander…

For some positive integer $k$, if the finite cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_k$ can act freely on a graph $G$, then we say that $G$ is $k$-symmetric. In 1985, Faria showed that the multiplicity of Laplacian eigenvalue 1 is greater than or equal to…

In the current work we are concerned with sequences of graphs having a grid geometry, with a uniform local structure in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 1$. When $\Omega=[0,1]$, such graphs include the standard Toeplitz…

Eigenvector centrality is a standard network analysis tool for determining the importance of (or ranking of) entities in a connected system that is represented by a graph. However, many complex systems and datasets have natural multi-way…

The notion of barycentre graph is of crucial importance for machine learning algorithms that process graph-valued data. The barycentre graph is a "summary graph" that captures the mean topology and connectivity structure of a training…

The traditional adjacency matrix of a mixed graph is not symmetric in general, hence its eigenvalues may be not real. To overcome this obstacle, several authors have recently defined and studied various Hermitian adjacency matrices of…

In a metric space $M=(X,d)$, we say that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$ if $d(u,w)=d(u,v)+d(v,w)$. Taking all triples $\{u,v,w\}$ such that $v$ is between $u$ and $w$, one can associate a 3-uniform hypergraph with each finite metric space $M$.…
