Spectrum of an adjacency matrix
The adjacency matrix of a non-oriented connected graph is symmetric, hence its spectrum is real.
If the graph is bipartite, then the spectrum of its adjacency matrix is symmetric about 0. A few ...

Eigenvalue decomposition of normalized adjacency matrix
Let $A$ be an adjacency matrix of undirected graph $G$, where $G$ is a connected graph. The normalized adjacency matrix is defined as $\hat{A}=D^{-1/2}AD^{-1/2}$, where $D$ is degree matrix of graph $...

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 $A$ ...

Leading eigenvector value problem as an optimisation problem for asymmetric matrices
As noted in 1806.05647, given a symmetric matrix $A$, the leading eigenvector value problem (LEVP)
$$Av = \lambda v,$$
where $A = A^T \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$, $\lambda$ is the largest ...

When does a row standardized adjacency matrix have a real spectrum?
A colleague in spatial statistics was looking at a map with about 600 regions. For the application she's considering, the induced adjacency matrix had some undesirable properties (where two regions ...
