Geometric Bounds on the Fastest Mixing Markov Chain

Sam Olesker-Taylor, Luca Zanetti

In the Fastest Mixing Markov Chain problem, we are given a graph and desire the discrete-time Markov chain with smallest mixing time subject to having equilibrium…

Random walks on randomly evolving graphs

Leran Cai, Thomas Sauerwald, Luca Zanetti

A random walk is a basic stochastic process on graphs and a key primitive in the design of distributed algorithms. One of the most important features of random walks is that, under…

Hermitian matrices for clustering directed graphs: insights and applications

Mihai Cucuringu, Huan Li, He Sun +1

Graph clustering is a basic technique in machine learning, and has widespread applications in different domains. While spectral techniques have been successfully applied for cluste…

Random Walks on Dynamic Graphs: Mixing Times, HittingTimes, and Return Probabilities

Thomas Sauerwald, Luca Zanetti

We establish and generalise several bounds for various random walk quantities including the mixing time and the maximum hitting time. Unlike previous analyses, our derivations are…

Hermitian Laplacians and a Cheeger inequality for the Max-2-Lin problem

Huan Li, He Sun, Luca Zanetti

We study spectral approaches for the MAX-2-LIN(k) problem, in which we are given a system of linear equations of the form , and required to find…

Partitioning Well-Clustered Graphs: Spectral Clustering Works!

Richard Peng, He Sun, Luca Zanetti

In this paper we study variants of the widely used spectral clustering that partitions a graph into k clusters by (1) embedding the vertices of a graph into a low-dimensional space…

A quantum-walk-inspired adiabatic algorithm for graph isomorphism

Dario Tamascelli, Luca Zanetti

We present a 2-local quantum algorithm for graph isomorphism GI based on an adiabatic protocol. By exploiting continuous-time quantum-walks, we are able to avoid a mere diffusion o…
