Comparing spectral radius of two graphs using the entry of Perron vector

Suppose we have a graph $G$. Let $A$ be the adjacency matrix of $G$ and $x$ be the corresponding Perron vector. Let $x = (x_1,x_2,\cdots,x_n)^t$, where $x_i$ corresponds to the vertex $i \in V(G)$. We ...

Explicit constructions of regular graphs with very sparse induced subgraphs

Let $d\ge 3$ be a constant. Is there an explicit construction of an infinite family of $d$-regular graphs such that for $G$ in this family with $n$ vertices, every subgraph $H$ of on at most $\alpha n$...

Spectral lower bounds on the diameter of a graph

There is such a bound, due to Mohar and McKay, using the second-smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian $\lambda_{2}$: $$Diam \geq \lceil \frac{4}{n\lambda_{2}} \rceil.$$ This bound is very elegant but ...

How to find or constrain "particularly good" (two-sided) spectral expanders?

I'm new to graph theory, but a response to a question I asked a while ago introduced me to the concept of expander graphs. A k-regular graph (henceforth "graph") on n nodes has eigenvalues k = λ1 ≥ ...

Number of trees with the same matching number

Let $\sigma(n,m)$ be the number of trees with $n$ vertices $\{ v_1, \dots, v_n \}$ such that the matching number (the size of a maximum matching) is $m$. I have been trying to compute the value of $\...

Non-isomorphic graphs with the same numbers of closed walks

Can somebody help me to construct two family of finite simple connected graph $G_i$ and $H_i$, $i=1, 2, \cdots,n$ ($n$ possibly large), such that: $1)$ $G_i‎\ncong H_i$ for $i=1, 2, \cdots, n$ $2)$ $...
