For a 1-tough graph $G$ we define $\sigma_3(G) = \min\{\deg(u) + \deg(v)+ \deg(w):$ $\{u, v, w\}$ is an independent set of vertices$\}$ and $NC2(G)=\min \{|N(u)\cup N(v)|: d(u,v)=2\}$. D. Bauer, G. Fan and H.J.Veldman proved that $c(G)\geq…
In this paper we prove a conjecture by Wocjan, Elphick and Anekstein (2018) which upper bounds the sum of the squares of the positive (or negative) eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of a graph by an expression that behaves monotonically…
The inertia bound and ratio bound (also known as the Cvetkovi\'c bound and Hoffman bound) are two fundamental inequalities in spectral graph theory, giving upper bounds on the independence number $\alpha(G)$ of a graph $G$ in terms of…
The altitude of a graph $G$, denoted $f(G)$, is the largest integer $k$ such that under each ordering of $E(G)$, there exists a path of length $k$ which traverses edges in increasing order. In 1971, Chv\'atal and Koml\'os asked for…
Hoffman's bound is a well-known eigenvalue bound on the chromatic number of a graph. By interpreting this bound as a parameter, we show multiple applications of colorings attaining the bound (Hoffman colorings) for several notions of graph…
In 2003, van Dam and Haemers posed a fundamental question in spectral graph theory: does there exist a ``sensible'' matrix whose spectrum determines a random graph up to isomorphism? This paper introduces the class of {\em natural graph…
Several expressions for the $j$-th component $\left( x_{k}\right)_{j}$ of the $k$-th eigenvector $x_{k}$ of a symmetric matrix $A$ belonging to eigenvalue $\lambda_{k}$ and normalized as $x_{k}^{T}x_{k}=1$ are presented. In particular, the…
We revisit the classical analysis of Karp, Vazirani, and Vazirani (KVV, STOC~1990), which established the well-known upper bound of $1 - 1/e$ as the limiting proportion of vertices that can be matched by any online procedure in a canonical…
In 1986, Brualdi and Solheid firstly proposed the problem of determining the maximum spectral radius of graphs in the set $\mathcal{H}_{n,m}$ consisting of all simple connected graphs with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, which is a very tough…
The Moore bound constitutes both an upper bound on the order of a graph of maximum degree $d$ and diameter $D=k$ and a lower bound on the order of a graph of minimum degree $d$ and odd girth $g=2k+1$. Graphs missing or exceeding the Moore…
A vertex $v \in V(G)$ is called $\lambda$-main if it belongs to a star set $X \subset V(G)$ of the eigenvalue $\lambda$ of a graph $G$ and this eigenvalue is main for the graph obtained from $G$ by deleting all the vertices in $X \setminus…
As a discrete analogue of Kac's celebrated question on "hearing the shape of a drum", and towards a practical graph isomorphism test, it is of interest to understand which graphs are determined up to isomorphism by their spectrum (of their…
We consider the hermitian random matrix model with external source and general polynomial potential, when the source has two distinct eigenvalues but is otherwise arbitrary. All such models studied so far have a common feature: an…
Spectral embedding of graphs uses the top k non-trivial eigenvectors of the random walk matrix to embed the graph into R^k. The primary use of this embedding has been for practical spectral clustering algorithms [SM00,NJW02]. Recently,…
Given a connected graph $G$, the Randi\'c index $R(G)$ is the sum of $\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{d(u)d(v)}}$ over all edges $\{u,v\}$ of $G$, where $d(u)$ and $d(v)$ are the degree of vertices $u$ and $v$ respectively. Let $q(G)$ be the largest…
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,…
Quantum graphs have attracted attention from mathematicians for some time. A quantum graph is defined by having a Laplacian on each edge of a metric graph and imposing boundary conditions at the vertices to get an eigenvalue problem. A…
Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$, and $A(G)$ and $D(G)$ its adjacency and degree diagonal matrices, respectively. For a parameter $\alpha \in [0,1]$, Nikiforov~(2017) introduced the convex combination $A_{\alpha}(G) = \alpha D(G) +…
The Brouwer conjecture (BC) in spectral graph theory claims that the sum of the largest k Kirchhoff eigenvalues of a graph are bounded above by the number m of edges plus k(k+1)/2. We show that (BC) holds for all graphs with n vertices if n…
In this article we consider the graph alignment problem from the perspective of high-dimensional statistics: we aim to estimate an unknown permutation $\pi^*$ from the observation of two correlated random adjacency matrices $A_1$, $A_2$. We…
