    Connected Hypergraphs with Small Spectral Radius

    Full text link
    In 1970 Smith classified all connected graphs with the spectral radius at most 22. Here the spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. Recently, the definition of spectral radius has been extended to rr-uniform hypergraphs. In this paper, we generalize the Smith's theorem to rr-uniform hypergraphs. We show that the smallest limit point of the spectral radii of connected rr-uniform hypergraphs is ρr=(r1)!4r\rho_r=(r-1)!\sqrt[r]{4}. We discovered a novel method for computing the spectral radius of hypergraphs, and classified all connected rr-uniform hypergraphs with spectral radius at most ρr\rho_r.Comment: 20 pages, fixed a missing class in theorem 2 and other small typo

    Efficient algorithms for deciding the type of growth of products of integer matrices

    Full text link
    For a given finite set Σ\Sigma of matrices with nonnegative integer entries we study the growth of maxt(Σ)=max{A1...At:AiΣ}. \max_t(\Sigma) = \max\{\|A_{1}... A_{t}\|: A_i \in \Sigma\}. We show how to determine in polynomial time whether the growth with tt is bounded, polynomial, or exponential, and we characterize precisely all possible behaviors.Comment: 20 pages, 4 figures, submitted to LA

    Multigrid Waveform Relaxation on Spatial Finite Element Meshes: The Discrete-Time Case

    Get PDF
    The efficiency of numerically solving time-dependent partial differential equations on parallel computers can be greatly improved by computing the solution on many time levels simultaneously. The theoretical properties of one such method, namely the discrete-time multigrid waveform relaxation method, are investigated for systems of ordinary differential equations obtained by spatial finite-element discretisation of linear parabolic initial-boundary value problems. The results are compared to the corresponding continuous-time results. The theory is illustrated for a one-dimensional and a two-dimensional model problem and checked against results obtained by numerical experiments

    On the positive and negative inertia of weighted graphs

    Full text link
    The number of the positive, negative and zero eigenvalues in the spectrum of the (edge)-weighted graph GG are called positive inertia index, negative inertia index and nullity of the weighted graph GG, and denoted by i+(G)i_+(G), i(G)i_-(G), i0(G)i_0(G), respectively. In this paper, the positive and negative inertia index of weighted trees, weighted unicyclic graphs and weighted bicyclic graphs are discussed, the methods of calculating them are obtained.Comment: 12. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1107.0400 by other author
