On a bound on algebraic connectivity: the case of equality

Stephen J. KirklandNeumann, MichaelBryan L. Shader — 1998

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

In a recent paper the authors proposed a lower bound on 1 - λ i , where λ i , λ i 1 , is an eigenvalue of a transition matrix T of an ergodic Markov chain. The bound, which involved the group inverse of I - T , was derived from a more general bound, due to Bauer, Deutsch, and Stoer, on the eigenvalues of a stochastic matrix other than its constant row sum. Here we adapt the bound to give a lower bound on the algebraic connectivity of an undirected graph, but principally consider the case of equality in the bound when...

Bounds on the subdominant eigenvalue involving group inverses with applications to graphs

Stephen J. KirklandNeumann, MichaelBryan L. Shader — 1998

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let A be an n × n symmetric, irreducible, and nonnegative matrix whose eigenvalues are λ 1 > λ 2 ... λ n . In this paper we derive several lower and upper bounds, in particular on λ 2 and λ n , but also, indirectly, on μ = max 2 i n | λ i | . The bounds are in terms of the diagonal entries of the group generalized inverse, Q # , of the singular and irreducible M-matrix Q = λ 1 I - A . Our starting point is a spectral resolution for Q # . We consider the case of equality in some of these inequalities and we apply our results to the algebraic connectivity of undirected...
