algebraic connectivity of a tree
Suppose that $T$ is a tree with $n$ vertices and $L$ is the Laplacian matrix of $T$ and $0=\mu_1 \leq \mu_2 \leq \cdots \leq \mu_n$ are laplacian eigenvalues.
I think the multiplicity of $\mu_2$ can ...

The spectrum of the discrete Laplacian
Consider a connected (we define connected components by defining the set of vertices where every vertex has one neighbour) sublattice $V$ of the square lattice $V \subset\mathbb{Z}^2.$
On this we ...

Is there some quantitative version of interlacing of eigenvalues of a matrix under rank-1 update?
Given a real symmetric matrix $A$ and a vector $v$ of the same dimension we know that the eigenvalues of $A + vv^T$ are left interlaced by the eigenvalues of $A$.
But do we have any quantitative ...

About expectation norms on graphs
Let $S \subseteq V$ of a $d-$regular graph $G$ such that $\mu = \frac{\vert S \vert }{\vert V \vert } $. Let $A$ be the adjacency matrix of the graph. Then define the quantity $\phi(S)= \frac{E(S,\bar{...
