Enumeration of Laplacian integral and {-1,0,1}-diagonalizable graphs

Nathaniel Johnston, Sarah Plosker, Luis M. B. Varona

A graph with Laplacian matrix is called Laplacian integral if the eigenvalues of are all integers, and it is called -diagonalizable if has a full set of eig…

Graph Structures for Local Distinguishability of Quantum Product States

Sooyeong Kim, David W. Kribs, Michael Nathanson +2

We consider the problem of distinguishing sets of quantum product states with local operations and classical communication (LOCC). Recent work has used graph theory to identify set…

Generalizing the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality: Hadamard powers and tensor products

Nathaniel Johnston, Sarah Plosker, Charles Torrance +1

We explore and generalize a Cauchy-Schwarz-type inequality originally proved in [Electronic Journal of Linear Algebra 35, 156-180 (2019)]: $\|\mathbf{v}^2\|\|\mathbf{w}^2\| - \lang…

The Factor Width Rank of a Matrix

Nathaniel Johnston, Shirin Moein, Sarah Plosker

A matrix is said to have factor width at most if it can be written as a sum of positive semidefinite matrices that are non-zero only in a single principal submatri…

Laplacian - and -diagonalizable graphs

Nathaniel Johnston, Sarah Plosker

A graph is called "Laplacian integral" if the eigenvalues of its Laplacian matrix are all integers. We investigate the subset of these graphs whose Laplacian is furthermore diagona…
