In this paper, we consider a certain convolutional Laplacian for metric measure spaces and investigate its potential for the statistical analysis of complex objects. The spectrum of that Laplacian serves as a signature of the space under…

We study the algebra of differential operators on non-compact simply connected harmonic manifolds and provide sufficient conditions for them to have a radial fundamental solution and be surjective on the space of smooth function.…

Spectral techniques are popular and robust approaches to data analysis. A prominent example is the use of eigenvectors of a Laplacian, constructed from data affinities, to identify natural data groupings or clusters, or to produce a…

In recent years, spectral clustering has become one of the most popular modern clustering algorithms. It is simple to implement, can be solved efficiently by standard linear algebra software, and very often outperforms traditional…

The use of Laplacian eigenfunctions is ubiquitous in a wide range of computer graphics and geometry processing applications. In particular, Laplacian eigenbases allow generalizing the classical Fourier analysis to manifolds. A key drawback…

Graph-Laplacians and their spectral embeddings play an important role in multiple areas of machine learning. This paper is focused on graph-Laplacian dimension reduction for the spectral clustering of data as a primary application. Spectral…

We describe the complete spectra of Laplacian, signless Laplacian, and adjacency matrices associated with the commuting graphs of a finite group using group theoretic information. We provide a method to find the center of a group by only…

Spectral clustering requires the time-consuming decomposition of the Laplacian matrix of the similarity graph, thus limiting its applicability to large datasets. To improve the efficiency of spectral clustering, a top-down approach was…

The discrete Laplace operator is ubiquitous in spectral shape analysis, since its eigenfunctions are provably optimal in representing smooth functions defined on the surface of the shape. Indeed, subspaces defined by its eigenfunctions have…

Time-evolving graphs arise frequently when modeling complex dynamical systems such as social networks, traffic flow, and biological processes. Developing techniques to identify and analyze communities in these time-varying graph structures…

The symmetry operators for the Laplacian in flat space were recently described and here we consider the same question for the square of the Laplacian. Again, there is a close connection with conformal geometry. There are three main steps in…

While spectral clustering algorithms for undirected graphs are well established and have been successfully applied to unsupervised machine learning problems ranging from image segmentation and genome sequencing to signal processing and…

We consider a convolution-type operator on vector bundles over metric-measure spaces. This operator extends the analogous convolution Laplacian on functions in our earlier work to vector bundles, and is a natural extension of the graph…

In this paper we generalise the results on eigenvalues and eigenvectors of unnormalized (combinatorial) Laplacian of two-dimensional grid presented by Edwards:2013 first to a grid graph of any dimension, and second also to other types of…

Laplacian operators are classical objects that are fundamental in both pure and applied mathematics and are becoming increasingly prominent in modern computational and data science fields such as applied and computational topology and…

Spectral geometric methods have brought revolutionary changes to the field of geometry processing. Of particular interest is the study of the Laplacian spectrum as a compact, isometry and permutation-invariant representation of a shape.…

In this paper, we introduce an algorithm for performing spectral clustering efficiently. Spectral clustering is a powerful clustering algorithm that suffers from high computational complexity, due to eigen decomposition. In this work, we…

We propose a novel model-reduction methodology for large-scale dynamic networks with tightly-connected components. First, the coherent groups are identified by a spectral clustering algorithm on the graph Laplacian matrix that models the…

Spectral clustering has become a popular technique due to its high performance in many contexts. It comprises three main steps: create a similarity graph between N objects to cluster, compute the first k eigenvectors of its Laplacian matrix…

In this paper we investigated the possibility to use the magnetic Laplacian to characterize directed graphs (a.k.a. networks). Many interesting results are obtained, including the finding that community structure is related to rotational…
