Directed graph whose adjacency matrix admits only 0 as eigenvalue

Let $G$ be a directed graph and let $P_i$ be its vertices. Let $A$ be the corresponding adjacency matrix of $G$, i.e. $a_{i,j}=1$ if and only if there is a directed edge from $P_i$ to $P_j$, ($a_{i,...

Eigenvector to zero eigenvalue of general Laplacian

I was wondering what we can say about the eigenvectors of a matrix $A$ fullfilling $Ax =0$ where $A$ is symmetric with a diagonal equal to one and every row sums up to 0. Obviously this is a ...

Centrality measures in a network with negative correlations

I have a bidirectional network where the weights of edges are based on partial correlation matrix. I have both positive and negative values as weights. Now, I want to compute centrality measures as ...

If there are eigenvectors with largest components $i$ resp. $j$, then is there an eigenvector with two largest components $i$ and $j$?

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected (finite simple) graph with vertex set $V=\{1,...,n\}$ and let $\theta_2\in\Bbb R$ be the second-largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. I wonder about the following ...

From one eigenvector to many, in a very local graph?

Let $\Gamma$ be an undirected graph of bounded degree $d$ with $V = \{1,2,\dotsc,N\}$ as its set of vertices, and edges only between vertices that are at a distance $\leq M$ apart (where $M$ is much ...

Eigenvalues of adjacency matrix of a k-regular graph

If $A_G$ is the adjacency matrix of a k-regular graph, let $B = J+xA_G$, where J is the matrix whose elements are all 1s and $x\in R$ is a scalar. If $\lambda_1\geq\lambda_2\geq \dots \geq \lambda_n$ ...

Interpreting (Fiedler) spectral bisectioning

I would appreciate help on how to interpret the results of spectral bisectioning of a graph. Given a $G=(V,E)$ with size $N$ represented by $Q$ its Laplacian matrix where the eigenvalues are ordered ...

Kneser graphs eigenvalues

Basically, I want to prove that, in the Kneser graph (wikipedia has a good definition),$K_{n, m}$, if $n_{-}(A(G)) $ and $n_{+}(A(G))$ denote the number of negative and positive eigenvalues of A(G) ...

Relationship betwen eigenvectors

Suppose that we have two matrices A and B. Matrix B is taken from A with one row and one column deleted. On the other hand A is n*n matrix and B is (n-1)*(n-1) matrix and is created by deleting last ...

Recovering Spherical Harmonics from Discrete Samples

Consider a collection of $N$ points on the 2-sphere chosen uniformly at random. Let's say that there's an edge between two such vertices if their geodesic distance is less than $r_N$. The resulting ...

interpretation of generalized eigenvalue/vectors in spectral graph theory [closed]

Let us say I have a symmetric graph adjacency matrix A, a degree matrix D, a laplacian L (D-A). I have a generalized eigenvalue equation $Av=\lambda Lv$. Does the eigenvalue/vectors produced in this ...

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 \...

Eigenvector centrality

I was wondering if you can calculate eigenvector centrality with undirected graphs and if you can, what is the best means of doing so. I understand how to calculate the adjacency matrix and how to ...
