Relationship between spectral gaps of adjacency and Laplacian matrices of graphs
Let $G$ be an undirected simple graph on $n$ vertices, with self-loops allowed, and with arbitrary positive edge weights $w_{u,v}$ (which is $0$ if there is no edge between $u$ and $v$).
Let $A$ be ...

A Dynkin type classification result in linear algebra
Let $G$ be a finite directed acyclic graph. The Cartan matrix $C_G=C$ of $G$ is defined as the matrix with rows and colums indexed by the vertices of $G$ and $c_{i,j}$ counts the number of paths from $...

Algebraic structures on graphs
There are many algebraic structures linked to graphs.
For example one can find zero divisor graphs $[1]$, $[2]$ and many other graphs.
Does there exist any survey paper which characterizes all the ...

Does this linear algebra construction based on a graph have a name, and where has it been studied?
In the paper Kochen-Specker set with seven contexts by Lisonek, Badziag, Portillo and Cabello, the following construction is used :
Question : Have such constructions been used elsewhere, and if so ...

Neighborhood overlap matrix for a bipartite graph
Let $G$ be an undirected, simple, bipartite graph with parts $V$ (having $n$ vertices) and $W$ (having $m$ vertices). Define the following $n$-by-$n$ matrix: for any $i,j \in V$, $$a_{ij} = |N_i \cap ...

The spectral radius of a modified graph
Let $H$ be a graph and let $G=H \vee K_{1}$ be obtained by creating a new vertex and joining it to every vertex in $H$.
This situation has many different names: $G$ is called the cone or the ...

Is this statement about the real edge space of a graph known or trivial?
The statement is:
($u$ is a fixed node in a fixed graph $G$)
$G$ is 3-connected
if and only if
the set of u-cycles span $\mathbb{R}^{E(G)}$.
A u-cycle is a simple (no vertex repetitions) cycle in G ...
