Eigenvalues of the complement of a graph

Let $A$ and $\widetilde A$ be the adjacency matrices of a graph $G$ and of its complement, respectively. Is there any relation between the eigenvalues of $A + \widetilde A$ and the eigenvalues of $A$ ...

Trace minimization for generalized eigenvalue problem

In [1], it is shown in theorem 1.2 that for symmetric $n \times n$ matrices $A$, $B$, we have $$ \min_{Y \in Y^*} \text{tr}(Y^TAY) = \text{tr}(X^TAX) = \sum_{i=1}^p \lambda_i, $$ with $$ \text{ $X^...

Repeated Second Eigenvalue of the Adjacency Matrix of a Graph

This question is motivated by a talk I went to earlier today. Suppose we have a $d$-regular graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, with adjacency matrix $A$. Let $$\lambda_1\geq \lambda_2 \geq\dots \geq \...
