In mathematics, spectral graph theory is the study of the properties of a graph in relationship to the characteristic polynomial, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors of matrices associated with the graph, such as its adjacency matrix or Laplacian matrix.

图理论是研究特征多项式特征值特征向量(图相关联的矩阵的诸如其邻接矩阵拉普拉斯矩阵)之间的关系的数学理论。

The adjacency matrix of a simple graph is a real symmetric matrix and is therefore orthogonally diagonalizable; its eigenvalues are real algebraic integers.

无向图的邻接矩阵是实对称矩阵,因此可以正交对角化的。它的特征值都是实整数

While the adjacency matrix depends on the vertex labeling, its spectrum is a graph invariant, although not a complete one.

虽然邻接矩阵取决于顶点标记的顺序,但其频谱图不变的,尽管不完全是。

Spectral graph theory is also concerned with graph parameters that are defined via multiplicities of eigenvalues of matrices associated to the graph, such as the Colin de Verdière number.

谱图理论还涉及通过与图相关的矩阵的特征值的多重性定义的图参数,例如科兰·德·韦迪耶尔数

Cospectral graphs

Two graphs are called cospectral or isospectral if the adjacency matrices of the graphs are isospectral, that is, if the adjacency matrices have equal multisets of eigenvalues.

Two cospectral enneahedra, the smallest possible cospectral polyhedral graphs

Cospectral graphs need not be isomorphic, but isomorphic graphs are always cospectral.

Graphs determined by their spectrum

A graph is said to be determined by its spectrum if any other graph with the same spectrum as is isomorphic to .

Some first examples of families of graphs that are determined by their spectrum include:

Cospectral mates

A pair of graphs are said to be cospectral mates if they have the same spectrum, but are non-isomorphic.

The smallest pair of cospectral mates is {K1,4, C4K1}, comprising the 5-vertex star and the graph union of the 4-vertex cycle and the single-vertex graph, as reported by Collatz and Sinogowitz[1][2] in 1957.

The smallest pair of polyhedral cospectral mates are enneahedra with eight vertices each.[3]

Finding cospectral graphs

Almost all trees are cospectral, i.e., as the number of vertices grows, the fraction of trees for which there exists a cospectral tree goes to 1.[4]

A pair of regular graphs are cospectral if and only if their complements are cospectral.[5]

A pair of distance-regular graphs are cospectral if and only if they have the same intersection array.

Cospectral graphs can also be constructed by means of the Sunada method.[6]

Another important source of cospectral graphs are the point-collinearity graphs and the line-intersection graphs of point-line geometries. These graphs are always cospectral but are often non-isomorphic.[7]

Cheeger inequality

The famous Cheeger's inequality from Riemannian geometry has a discrete analogue involving the Laplacian matrix; this is perhaps the most important theorem in spectral graph theory and one of the most useful facts in algorithmic applications. It approximates the sparsest cut of a graph through the second eigenvalue of its Laplacian.

Cheeger constant

The Cheeger constant (also Cheeger number or isoperimetric number) of a graph is a numerical measure of whether or not a graph has a "bottleneck". The Cheeger constant as a measure of "bottleneckedness" is of great interest in many areas: for example, constructing well-connected networks of computers, card shuffling, and low-dimensional topology (in particular, the study of hyperbolic 3-manifolds).

More formally, the Cheeger constant h(G) of a graph G on n vertices is defined as

where the minimum is over all nonempty sets S of at most n/2 vertices and ∂(S) is the edge boundary of S, i.e., the set of edges with exactly one endpoint in S.[8]

Cheeger inequality

When the graph G is d-regular, there is a relationship between h(G) and the spectral gap d − λ2 of G. An inequality due to Dodziuk[9] and independently Alon and Milman[10] states that[11]

This inequality is closely related to the Cheeger bound for Markov chains and can be seen as a discrete version of Cheeger's inequality in Riemannian geometry.

Hoffman-Delsarte inequality

There is an eigenvalue bound for independent sets in regular graphs, originally due to Alan J. Hoffman and Philippe Delsarte.[12]

Suppose that is a -regular graph on vertices with least eigenvalue . Then:where denotes its independence number.

This bound has been applied to establish e.g. algebraic proofs of the Erdős–Ko–Rado theorem and its analogue for intersecting families of subspaces over finite fields.[13]

Historical outline

Spectral graph theory emerged in the 1950s and 1960s. Besides graph theoretic research on the relationship between structural and spectral properties of graphs, another major source was research in quantum chemistry, but the connections between these two lines of work were not discovered until much later.[14] The 1980 monograph Spectra of Graphs[15] by Cvetković, Doob, and Sachs summarised nearly all research to date in the area. In 1988 it was updated by the survey Recent Results in the Theory of Graph Spectra.[16] The 3rd edition of Spectra of Graphs (1995) contains a summary of the further recent contributions to the subject.[14] Discrete geometric analysis created and developed by Toshikazu Sunada in the 2000s deals with spectral graph theory in terms of discrete Laplacians associated with weighted graphs,[17] and finds application in various fields, including shape analysis. In most recent years, the spectral graph theory has expanded to vertex-varying graphs often encountered in many real-life applications.[18][19][20][21]
