Interpreting positive semidefinite matrix as a graph
Given any symmetric matrix $S \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$, if $S \succeq 0$, is there a way to encode $S$ into a graph such that it takes into account the positive semidefinite constraint, and ...

Non-backtracking random walk in regular (finite) graphs
I know that many things are known when dealing with random walks on a finite (or even infinite) graph: mixing time, returns to origin, etc. All is based in the use of the Markovian property of such a ...

Reachability in graphs using adjacent matrix
Assuming a graph $G$ with $N$ nodes distributed in a $\mathcal{L}\times\mathcal{L}$ area randomly. There is an edge between two nodes if and only if the Euler distance between them is equal or less ...

adjacency matrix of random geometric graphs [closed]
Consider a graph with N nodes. All nodes are distributed as a Poisson point process with density of λ in a L*L area. There is an edge between two nodes if and only if the distance between them is less ...

Determinants in Graph Theory
In graph theory, we work with adjacency matrices which define the connections between the vertices. These matrices have various linear-algebraic properties. For example, their trace can be calculated (...
