Limiting spectral distribution of a random matrix with specific structure

First, consider an $N \times N$ Hermitian random matrix $V$ from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). It is well known that the empirical spectral distribution of the GUE satisfies the semicircle law ...

Is the sum of the circulant matrix with a super upper triangular matrix diagonalizable?

By the circulant matrix $C$ in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$, we mean that $$C=[e_n|e_1|\cdots|e_{n-1}]$$ where $e_1,\cdots,e_n$ are the standard basis vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$. It is well-known that $$C=\...

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 ...

Eigenvalues of directed graph with one outward edge for each vertex

I am concerned with unweighted directed graphs where each node contains exactly one edge pointing to another node, which could be itself. In other words, each row of the adjacency matrix contains one ...

The middle eigenvalues of an undirected graph

Let $ \lambda_1 \ge \lambda_2 \ge \dots \ge \lambda_{2n} $ be the collection of eigenvalues of an adjacency matrix of an undirected graph $G$ on $2n$ vertices. I am looking for any work or references ...

Eigenvalues of random graphs

At time $t=0$, let $G_n(V,E)$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $m < n$ edges. Then there exists a unique symmetric adjacency matrix $A_n$ associated with $G_n(V,E)$, defined as follows: $a_{ij} = 1$...

Energy of a symmetric matrix with $0$, $1$ or $-1$ entries

I have a symmetric matrix with entries $0$, $1$ or $-1$ which appeared in my works in graph theory (the diagonal entries are all zero). I need a good upper bound for the energy of this matrix; i.e. "...

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 ...

Lower bound on the eigenvalues of the Laplacian

I am looking for a graph for which $2 d_{i} < \mu_{i}$, for some index $i$, where $\mu_{1} \leq \mu_{2} \leq \dots\leq \mu_{n}$ are the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix $L(G)$ and $d_{1} \leq d_{...
