Is every positive integer the permanent of some 0-1 matrix?
In the course of discussing another MO question we realized that we did not know the answer to a more basic question, namely:
Is it true that for every positive integer $k$ there exists a balanced ...

Adjacency matrices of graphs
Motivated by the apparent lack of possible classification of integer matrices up to conjugation (see here) and by a question about possible complete graph invariants (see here), let me ask the ...

Possibility of Disconnected Subgraphs of a $k$ Connected $r$ regular Graph under a given condition
Context: Given a adjacency matrix A of a $r$-regular graph $G$ (not complete graph $K_{r+1}$) . $G$ is $k$ connected.
The matrix A can be divided into 4 sub-matrices based on adjacency of vertex $x ...

Correspondence between matrix multiplication and a graph operation of Lovász
In his book "Large networks and graph limits", Lovász describes a multiplication operation (he calls it concatenation) on "bi-labeled graphs". An $(m,n)$ bi-labeled graph is a ...

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 ...

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 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=\...

Permutation similarity of matrices with many distinct entries
This is related to graph isomorphism.
Here matrices are square $n \times n$ with non-negative integer entries.
Two matrices $A,B$ are permutation similar if there exist
permutation matrix $P$ such ...

Hard instances for this graph isomorphism algorithm based on powers of weighted adjacency matrices?
In short, I found an algorithm for GI and the only hard instances
I found so far are non-isomorphic strongly regular graphs with
large automorphism groups.
Q1 What are hard instances for the ...

Reduction from permanent to $(0,1)$-permanent and implication of $P \ne NP$
Valiant
shows reduction from counting the solutions of CNF formula $F$,$\#SAT(F)$
to computing permanent where $ Perm(A)= 4^{t(F)}\cdot \#SAT(F)$
for certain efficiently computable $t(F)$ and matrix $...
