Spectral properties of random graphs with fixed equitable partition
Abstract
We define a graph to be -regular if it contains an equitable partition given by a matrix . These graphs are generalizations of both regular and bipartite, biregular graphs. An -regular matrix is defined then as a matrix on an -regular graph consistent with the graph's equitable partition. In this paper we derive the limiting spectral density for large, random -regular matrices as well as limiting functions of certain statistics for their eigenvector coordinates as a function of eigenvalue. These limiting functions are defined in terms of spectral measures on -regular trees. In general, these spectral measures do not have a closed-form expression; however, we provide a defining system of polynomials for them. Finally, we explore eigenvalue bounds of -regular graph, proving an expander mixing lemma, Alon-Bopana bound, and other eigenvalue inequalities in terms of the eigenvalues of the matrix .
