2 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing L = spectrum: {4 1, 1 2, 0 1 }
3 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing m < n λ 1 λ 2 λ n µ 1 µ 2 µ m
4 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing m < n λ 1 λ 2 λ n µ 1 µ 2 µ m Interlacing: λ i µ i λ n m+i 1 i m
5 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing m < n λ 1 λ 2 λ n µ 1 µ 2 µ m Interlacing: λ i µ i λ n m+i 1 i m
6 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing m < n λ 1 λ 2 λ n µ 1 µ 2 µ m Interlacing: λ i µ i λ n m+i 1 i m λ 1, λ 2,, λ n eigenvalues of a matrix A µ 1, µ 2,, µ m eigenvalues of a matrix B
7 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing 1 B is a principal submatrix of A.
8 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing 1 B is a principal submatrix of A. 2 If P = {U 1,..., U m } is a partition of {1,..., n} we can take for B the so-called quotient matrix of A with respect to P.

10 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing [Schur 1923] Let G be a graph with vertex degrees d 1 d 2 d n, and Laplacian matrix L with eigenvalues λ 1 λ 2 λ n (= 0). Then, λ i d i 1 Proof: Let B be a principal m m submatrix of L indexed by the subindexes corresponding to the m largest degrees, with eigenvalues µ 1 µ 2 µ m. Then, µ i = tr B = d i, and, by interlacing, µ i λ i.
11 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing
12 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing
13 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing
14 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing The isoperimetric number i of G is defined as i(g) = min U V { (U, U) / U : 0 < U n/2 [Mohar 1989] Let G be a graph with Laplacian eigenvalues λ 1 λ 2 λ n (= 0) and isoperimetric number i(g). Then, i(g) λ n 1 /2. }.
15 Laplacian matrix Eigenvalue interlacing Two cases of interlacing [Mohar 1989] Let G be a graph with Laplacian eigenvalues λ 1 λ 2 λ n (= 0) and isoperimetric number i. Then, i(g) λ n 1 /2. 2 Proof: Set m = 2 and take a partition {V 1 = U, V 2 = U}. Then, B = (U,U) U (U,U) n U (U,U) U (U,U) n U spectrum B: µ 1 µ 2 = 0 and µ 1 = traceb = (U,U) U (1 + U n U ) By interlacing, λ 1 µ 1 λ n 2+1 = λ n 1. So λ n 1 (U,U) n U ( n U ). For U n 2, we have λ n 1 2 (U,U) U 2i(G).
16 [Grone 1995] For a connected graph and 0 < m < n, then λ i d i + 1. [Theorem] Let G be a connected graph on n = V vertices, having Laplacian matrix L with eigenvalues λ 1 λ 2 λ n (= 0). Let U be the vertex subset which contains the m largest degrees, with 0 < m < n. Then, λ i d i.
17 [Grone 1995] For a connected graph and 0 < m < n, then λ i d i + 1. [Theorem] Let G be a connected graph on n = V vertices, having Laplacian matrix L with eigenvalues λ 1 λ 2 λ n (= 0). Let U be the vertex subset which contains the m largest degrees, with 0 < m < n. Then, λ i d i + (U, U) n m.
18 2 Proof: Let U V be the set containing the m vertices with largest degree.
19 2 Proof: Let U V be the set containing the m vertices with largest degree. B has row sum 0, so µ m+1 = λ n = 0 m+1 µ i = µ i = tr B = b m+1,m+1 = (U,U) n m d i + b m+1,m+1
20 2 Proof: Let U V be the set containing the m vertices with largest degree. B has row sum 0, so µ m+1 = λ n = 0 m+1 µ i = µ i = tr B = b m+1,m+1 = (U,U) n m d i + b m+1,m+1 Interlacing µ i λ i and add for i = 1, 2,..., m

24 Example of equality: The graph join of the complete graph K p with the empty graph K q, n = p + q. Laplacian spectrum: {n p, p q 1, 0 1 } degree sequence: {(n 1) p, p q } U = {v 1,..., v m } b m+1,m+1 = m d i + b m+1,m+1 = m(n 1) + m = mn = λ i.
25 If U U and we delete the vertices (and corresponding edges) of U\ U, [Theorem] For a connected graph and 0 < m < n, then λ i d i + (U, U). U Since (U,U) U 1, our result implies Grone s theorem.
26 Idea: bounding (U, U) or optimizing b = (U, U) /(n m)

28 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number The edge-connectivity κ e (G) of a graph G is the minimum size of a cut (U, U), provided 0 < U < n. [Proposition] κ e (G) min 0<m<n { (n m) } (λ i d i ).
29 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Recall that the isoperimetric number is defined as { } i(g) = min U V (U, U) / U : 0 < U n/2.
30 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Recall that the isoperimetric number is defined as { } i(g) = min U V (U, U) / U : 0 < U n/2. [Mohar 1989] λ n 1 2 i(g) λ n 1 (2d 1 λ n 1 ).
31 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Recall that the isoperimetric number is defined as { } i(g) = min U V (U, U) / U : 0 < U n/2. [Mohar 1989] λ n 1 2 i(g) λ n 1 (2d 1 λ n 1 ). [Proposition] i(g) min n 2 m<n (λ i d i ).
32 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Example: The graph join of the complete graph K p with the empty graph K q.
33 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Example: The graph join of the complete graph K p with the empty graph K q. Laplacian spectrum: {n p, p q 1, 0 1 } degree sequence: {(n 1) p, p q }
34 The edge-connectivity The isoperimetric number Example: The graph join of the complete graph K p with the empty graph K q. Laplacian spectrum: {n p, p q 1, 0 1 } degree sequence: {(n 1) p, p q } Our bound gives i(g) min{p, n 2 }, which is better than Mohar s upper bound for all 0 q < n.
