Helmholzian Spectra of Graphs: Novel Properties

Lu Lu, Yongtang Shi, Zoran Stanić +2

Let $\grad$, $\curl$, and $\dv$ be the graph-theoretic analogues of the gradient, curl, and divergence operators from multivariate calculus. The graph Laplacian $-\dv \grad$ gives…

Helmholzian spectra of graphs: basic properties

Lu Lu, Yongtang Shi, Zoran Stanić +2

The Helmholtzian matrix of a graph is a graph-theoretic analogue of the vector Laplacian (or Helmholtz operator) [S. Li, L. Lu, J.F. Wang, A graph discretization of…

Maximizing the Steklov eigenvalues on trees with a diameter constraint

Jiangdong Ai, Huiqiu Lin, Yongtang Shi

We study the first nonzero Steklov eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on a finite tree with leaf boundary , under a constraint on the diameter…

The first Steklov eigenvalue bound for graphs of positive genus

Lixiang Chen, Yongtang Shi, Liwen Zhang

Let be a graph of genus with boundary . For , Lin and Zhao [J. Lond. Math. Soc. 112 (2025), Paper No. e70238] proved an upper bound for the first (non-trivial) S…

On the second-largest modulus among the eigenvalues of a power hypergraph

Changjiang Bu, Lixiang Chen, Yongtang Shi

It is well known that the algebraic multiplicity of an eigenvalue of a graph (or real symmetric matrix) is equal to the dimension of its corresponding linear eigen-subspace, also k…
