A proof of Haemers' toughness conjecture
Gary Greaves, Haoran Zhu
We prove that if is a connected graph with minimum degree and Laplacian eigenvalues , then the toughness of is bounded be…
Spectral gap of biased adjacent-transposition chains
Gary R. W. Greaves, Haoran Zhu
We establish a sharp lower bound on the spectral gap of the biased adjacent-transposition Markov chain on the symmetric group. As a consequence, we resolve a longstanding conjectur…
Aldous property for full-flag Johnson graphs
Gary Greaves, Haoran Zhu
We show that the full-flag Johnson graph has spectral gap equal to that of its Schreier quotient arising from the point-stabiliser equitable partition. Our results confirm two conj…
Real-rooted integer polynomial enumeration algorithms and interlacing polynomials via linear programming
Gary R. W. Greaves, Jeven Syatriadi
We extend the algorithms of Robinson, Smyth, and McKee--Smyth to enumerate all real-rooted integer polynomials of a fixed degree, where the first few (at least three) leading coeff…
