Surprising symmetry in the Ramanujan bound

The condition for a connected $(q+1)$-regular graph to be Ramanujan is that every nonzero eigenvalue $\lambda$ of the graph Laplacian satisfy $$q+1-2\sqrt{q}\le \lambda\le q+1+2\sqrt{q}.$$ With a litt …

Digraphs with unique walk of length $k$ between any two vertices

Let $G$ be a digraph such that there is an unique directed walk of length $k$ between any two vertices. Equivalently, if $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $G$, then $A^k$ is the matrix with all entries $ …

Conceptual explanation for the gap in the spectrum of biregular trees

Ramanujan graphs are defined as $(q+1)$-regular graphs for which all nontrivial eigenvalues of the adjacency operator are contained in the interval $$[-2\sqrt{q}, 2\sqrt{q}].$$ The reason for this def …
