1 Spanning trees in subgraphs of lattices Fan Chung University of California, San Diego La Jolla, Introduction In a graph G, for a subset S of the vertex set, the induced subgraph determined by S has edge set consisting of all edges of G with both endpoints in S. The (edge) boundary, denoted by S consists of all edges containing one endpoint in S and one endpoint not in S. We consider the combinatorial Laplacian of a graph and an induced subgraph of a graph. Using the classical matrix-tree theorem [8], the number of spanning trees of a graph is proportional to the product of nonzero eigenvalues of the combinatorial Laplacian. We will introduce the zeta function of a graph and derive its relation to the heat kernel and the number of spanning trees of a graph. In the second part of the paper, we will focus on the special case which involves induced subgraphs of a lattice graph. We will show that for a connected induced subgraph S of a 2-dimensional lattice graph, the number of spanning trees τ(s) satisfies ce c c2 S τ(s) c e c +c3 S 2 / () where the constants c,c 2 and c 3 are universal contants depending only on the host graph but independent of S. This can be viewed as a discrete analog of the classical results of H. Weyl [] and McKean and Singer [9]. This paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we Research supported in part by NSF Grant No. DMS 98-6
2 state the relationship of the combinatorial Laplacian and the number of spanning trees. In Section 3, we consider the heat kernel and the zeta function of a graph. In Section, we focus on the heat kernel of a lattice graph. In Section 5, we prove the main theorem by using the tools defined in preceding sections. For undefined terminology, the reader is referred to [2] and [3]. 2 The combinatorial Laplacian and spanning trees We consider a graph G =(V,E) with vertex set V = V (G) andedgesete = E(G). Let d v denote the degree of v in G. Here we assume G contains no multiple edges. The combinatorial Laplacian L of G has rows and columns indexed by vertices of G, defined as follows. d v l v if u = v L(u, v) = if u and v are adjacent otherwise where l v denotes the number of loops at v. For a function f : V R, wehave Lf(v) = [f(v) f(u)]. u V u v One of the fundamental theorems in combinatorics is the matrix-tree theorem due to Kirchhoff [8] which states that the number of spanning trees in a graph is equal to the determinant of any principal submatrix of the combinatorial Laplacian. For a graph G, the combinatorial Laplacian has non-negative eigenvalues, = ρ ρ...ρ n. The number of spanning trees, denoted by τ(g), can be related to the eigenvalues of L as follows: (A proof can be found in []. For completeness, we briefly describe the proof here). Theorem For a graph G on n vertices, the number of spanning trees τ(g) is : τ(g) = ρ i. n i 2
3 Proof: Suppose we consider the characteristic polynomial p(x) of the combinatorial Laplacian L. p(x) =det(l xi). The coefficient of the linear term is exactly i ρ i. On the other hand, the coefficient of the linear term of p(x) is timesthesumof the determinant of n principal submatrix of L obtained by deleting the i-th row and i-th column. By the matrix-tree theorem, the product i ρ i is exactly n times the number of spanning trees of G. 3 The heat kernel and the zeta function In a graph G, lets denote a finite connected induced subgraph of G. The combinatorial Laplacian L S restricted to S is just L S f(v) = [f(v) f(u)]. u S u v for a function f : S R and a fixed v S. Let k denote the maximum degree of G. For t, the heat kernel h t of an induced graph S is defined by h t = i e λit P i = e tls/k = I t k L S + t2 2!k 2 L2 S... where λ i = ρ i k and P i denotes the projection into the eigenspace associated with eigenvalue ρ i of L S.Inparticular,h = I, the identity matrix, and h t satisfies the heat equation dh t dt = k L Sh t. 3
4 The trace formula in its most general form is h t (x, x) = x i e λit (2) We define the trace function: Tr (h t )= i e λit For a connected induced subgraph S, we consider the ζ-function ζ(s) = i where λ i ranges over all nonzero eigenvalues of k L S. Therefore we have λ s i ζ () = log i λ i. (3) where log denotes the natural logarithm. Here we relate the number of spanning trees to the zeta function of G (also see [7]). Theorem 2 For a connected induced subgraph S in a graph G with maximum degree k, the number of spanning trees, denoted by τ(g), isequalto τ(s) = k e ζ (). Proof: Using (3) and Theorem, we have τ(s) = i = k ρ i i λ i = k e ζ ().
5 We consider Tr (h t )= i e λit. Because of the fact that we have the following: e λt t z dt = Γ(z) λ z Theorem 3 ζ(s) = t s Tr (h t )dt () We note that we also have the following Mellin inversion formula: Tr (h t )= t s ζ(s)ds 2πi The heat kernel for a path For the one-dimensional case, in an infinite path P, the vertices are labeled by integers and x is adjacent to x + and x. The heat kernel of P has been examined in [6] and here we state some facts that will be useful later. The heat kernel H t of P satisfies: n H t (x, x) = lim n n j= n = lim n n = 2 π j= e tλj 2πj t( cos e n ) e 2t sin2 y dy (5) In general, the heat kernel H t (x, y) of an infinite path satisfies n H t (x, x + a) = lim e tλj e 2πija n n n = 2 π = 2 π j= e 2t sin2 y+2iay dy e 2t sin2 y cos 2aydy (6) 5
6 We also need the following fact (see [6]): H t (x, x + a) = H t (x, x a) = ( ) a e ( 2k ) t k+a ( t k! 2 )k k a = e ( a+2k ) t k ( t k! 2 )a+2k k a The above equality can be used to show the following: a Z + H t (, 2a +) = 2 H t (, 2a +) aodd = 2 e t kodd (t) k k! = e t (et/2 e t/2 ) = e t (7) We will also use the following facts [2]: Also, we have d dt H t(x, y) = 2 LH t(x, y) (8) = (H t (x, y) H t (x,y)). (9) 2 H (x, y) = x x { if x = y, otherwise. 5 The heat kernel for lattice graphs In this section, we consider the k-dimensional lattice graphs and their induced subgraphs. We define the lattice graph P n (r) to be the cartesian product of k copies of an n-cycle. The infinite lattice graph P (k) is just by taking the limit of P n (r) as n approaches infinity. In particular, for the 2 dimensional lattice graph p (2),each vertex is labelled by (x, y),x,y Z. Thevertex(x, y) is adjacent to (x +,y), (x,y), (x, y +)and(x, y ). 6
7 In an infinite 2 dimensional lattice graph P (2), the heat kernel H (2) t satisfies H (2) t ((x, y), (x + a, y + b)) = H t/2 (x, x + a)h t/2 (y, y + b) () where H t is the heat kernel for an infinite path. In general, we have H (r) t (x, x + a)) = r H t/r (x i,x i + a i ) () i= where x =(x,...,x r ). For certain induced subgraphs of the r dimensional lattice graphs P (r), we want to derive sharp estimates for the products of the nonzero eigenvalues of the combinatorial Laplacian. To do so, we consider the heat kernel h t of an induced subgraph S of P (r).from(),wehave ζ(s) = = t s Tr h t dt t s ( x S h t (x, x) )dt Of particular interest are subgraphs S whose trace can be estimated by using the heat kernel of the lattice graph P (r). We define the function ζ as follows: Using (5) and (), we have ζ (s) = ( 2 π )r ζ (s) = = ( 2 π )r Therefore we have ζ () = ( 2 π )r t s H (r) t (x, x)dt t s e 22 r (sin 2 x + +sin 2 x r) dtdx dx r (2 2 r (sin 2 x + +sin 2 x r )) s dx dx r In particular, for the case of r =2,wehave ζ () = ( 2 π )2 = log(2 2 r (sin 2 x + +sin 2 x r ))dx dx r (2) log(sin 2 x +sin 2 y)dxdy 7
8 If h t can be approximated by H (2) t, then we can derive the following first-order estimate : τ(s) e ζ () This has a similar flavor as the formula of H. Weyl [] for bounded regions of R k. To derive such estimates in a precise manner, we will examine the difference of H t and h t in the next section. 6 The heat kernel of an induced subgraph of the lattice graph Suppose S is an induced subgraph of the 2-dimensional lattice graph P (2).Inorder to enumerate the number of spanning trees of S, We will first establish the relation between the heat kernel of S and the heat kernel of P (2). We start with the combinatorical Laplacian L S for the induced subgraph S which acts on functions f : S R as follows: For x in S, wehave L S f(x) = [f(x) f(y)] y S y x In this section, we denote the heat kernel of S by h t (x, y) =h(t, x, y) andtheheat kernel of P (r) by H (2) t (x, y) = H(t, x, y). From the definition, we have d dt h t = L Sh t, d dt H t = LH t We consider, for x, y S, d ds h(t s, x, z)h(s, z, y)ds z S = z S[h(,x,z) H(t, z, y) h(t, x, z) H(,z,y)] = H(t, x, y) h(t, x, y). 8
9 On the other hand, for fixed x and y in S, wehave = = = = H(t, x, y) h(t, x, y) d h(t s, x, z)h(s, z, y)ds ds z S ( d ds h(t s, x, z) H(s, z, y)+h(t s, x, z) d H(s, z, y)]ds ds z S [L Sh(t s, x, z) H(s, z, y) h(t s, x, z) LH(s, z, y)] ds z S (h(t s, x, z) h(t s, x, w)(h(s, z, y) H(s, w, y)) h(t s, x, z) LH(s, z, y) ds z S = Thus, we have z,w S z w z S,z S z z h(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, y) H(s, z,y)]ds h = H + Qh (3) where Q is defined as follows: Thus we have Qh(t, x, y) = z S,z S z z h(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, y) H(s, z,y)]ds h = H + QH + Q 2 H Q r H + Q r h. We have proved the following: Theorem For a connected induced subgraph S in the 2-dimensional lattice graph, the heat kernel h of S satisfies the following: h = H + QH + Q 2 H Q r H + Q r h where Qh(t, x, y) = z S,z S z z h(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, y) H(s, z,y)]ds 9
10 As a consequence of Theorem, we also have the following useful fact: Theorem 5 For a connected induced subgraph S in the 2-dimensional lattice graph, the heat kernel H of the lattice graph satisfies the following: H(t, x, y) = [H(s, z, y) H(s, z,y)]ds () x S z S,z S z z Proof: The proof follows from Theorem (for the case of r =)andthefactthat h(t, x, y) =. x S Using the definition of Q, () can be written as = x S H(t, x, y)+q(y) and where = (H(t, x, y)+qh(t, x, y)+...+ Q k H(t, x, y)) + Q k+ x,y S Q k = Q k (y). y S 7 The heat kernel of a half plane In this section, we consider a special induced subgraph of the 2-dimensional lattice graph P (2). First, we consider a half plane F which is an induced subgraph of P (2) with vertex set {v =(a, b) :a }. We remark that from the definition of the combinatorial Laplacian in Section 2, we see that for a graph G and a graph G that is resulted by adding a loop to G, their combinatorial Laplacians are identical. An induced subgraph S of a regular graph is not regular in general. We will often consider adding loops to vertices of S which are adjacent to vertices not in S so that all the degrees are equal in the
11 resulting graph. The closure of an induced subgraph S, denoted by Ŝ, is by adding p loops to every vertex v in S which is incident to p edges in the edge boundary S. Clearly, the closure of an induced subgraphs have the same heat kernel. Our goal is to express the heat kernel of a half plane in terms of the heat kernel of P (2). Theorem 6 The heat kernel h of the halfplane F satisfies, for vertices u and u of F, h(t, u, v) =H(t, u, v)+h(t, u, v) where v is the mirrow image of the vertex v with respect to the line x = /2. Proof: We note that h(t, u, v) =e t r w r (u, v) tr r! where w r (u, v) denote the number of walks of length r from u to v in the closure the half plane F. It suffices to show that we can have w r (u, v) =w r (u, v) +w r(u, v) where w r(u, v) is the number of walks of length r from u to v in P (2) and w r (u, v) is the number of walks of length r from u to v in P (2). We observe that a walk in the plane P (2) joining u to v corresponds to a walk in ˆF by reflecting using the line x = /2. Namely, a walk which visits v F shall be mapped to the corresponding walk which visit v F. Furthermore, an edge from v which crosses the line x = /2 is corresponding to a loop at v. A walk of length r from u to v in P (2) is then mapped to a walk of the same length from v to v in ˆF with an even number of loops. Also, a walk of length r from u to v in ˆF which contains an odd number of loops is mapped to walks of length r from u to v in P (2). In fact, such correspondences give a bijection. Therefore, we have h(t, u, v) =H(t, u, v)+h(t, u, v).
12 We now define another operator Q as follows: Qh(t, u, v) = h(t s, u, z)[h(s, z, v) H(s, z,v)]ds (5) z F,z F z z Theorem 7 For two vertices x and y in he half plane F, we have H(t, u, v) =QH(t, u, v)+q 2 H(t, u, v)+... where v is the mirrow image of the vertex v with respect to the line x = /2. Proof: The proof follows from Theorem 6, which says h(t, x, y) H(t, x, y) =H(t, x, ȳ). Then we use Theorem which states that h(t, x, y) H(t, x, y) =QH(t, x, y)+q 2 H(t, x, y)+.... Another consequence of (5) is the following: Theorem 8 a Z + v=(a,) Qf(t, v, v) = f(t s, x, z )[H(s, z,v) H(s, z,x)]ds x F for z =(, ),z =(, ) and for any f. Proof: We sum (5) over all vertices v in F. Qf(t, v, v) = f(t s, v, z)[h(s, z, v) H(s, z,v)]ds a Z + v=(a,) = a Z + z F,z F v=(a,) z z f(t s, x, z)[h(s, z,v) H(s, z,x)]ds x F 2
13 8 Bounding the number of spanning trees Suppose S is an induced subgraph of the 2-dimensional lattice graph P (2). We will prove the main theorem. Theorem 9 For a connected induced subgraph S in the 2-dimensional lattice graph, the number of spanning trees τ(s) of S satisfies: where (e α ) e β S ( /) τ(s) e α( S 2 /) α = ( 2 π )2 log((sin 2 x +sin 2 x 2 ))dx dx β = (log sin 2 x log( + sin 2 x))dx 2π Proof: From Theorem, we have h = H + QH + Q 2 H Q r H + Q r h. We consider the trace of h. For simplicity, we write Tr S H t = x S QH(t, x, x). We have Tr S QH t = x S QH t (x, x) = z S,z S z z z S,z S z z x S x F z H(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, x) H(s, z,x)]ds H(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, x) H(s, z,x)]ds where F z is the half plane consisting of all points closer to z than to z. Thus, we have Tr S QH t S H(t s, x, z)[h(s, z, x) H(s, z,x)]ds x F z 3
14 Using Theorem 8, we get Tr S QH t = x S QH(t, x, x) S a Z + v=(a,) QH(t, v, v) By repeatedly using Theorem 8, we have Tr S Q j H t = x S Q j H(t, x, x) S a Z + v=(a,) Q j H(t, v, v) Summing over j, wehave Tr S Q j H t S j by using Theorem 7. Then we have = S ζ(s) = t s (Tr(h t ) )dt = t s H(t, x, x)dt + t s ( Q r+ )dt = ζ (s) + ζ (s)+ζ 2 (s) From the previous section, we know that ζ () = ( 2 π )2 = a Z + j v=(a,) a Z + v=(a,) Q j H(t, v, v) H(t, v, v) (6) t s (Tr S QH t TrQ r H t ) log(sin 2 x +sin 2 y)dxdy It suffices to estimate and bound ζ () and ζ 2 (). We will use the fact that for differentiable functions f,g with f() = g(), if f(x) g(x) forx, then f () g ().
15 ζ (s) S = S t s t s (Tr S QH t +...) dt a Z + v=(a,) H(t, v, v)dt t s ( e t )H(t/2,, )dt by using (7). Therefore we have Consequently, ζ (s) S = S 2π ζ () S 2π = β S t s ( e t ) 2 π ( sin 2s x ( + sin 2 x) )dx s e t sin2 x dxdt (log sin 2 x log( + sin 2 x))dx S (7) It remains to bound ζ 2. From Theorem, we see that for any x S, We also note that for x y, Q r+ (x) = y S H(x, y)+ lim s In fact, we have, in general, Therefore we have lim s r Q j H(t, x, y). j= y S t s H(t, x, y)dt = t s Q j H(t, x, y)dt = lim s ζ 2() = n (ζ () + ζ ()) 5
16 Clearly, we have ζ 2 (x) H(t, x, y)dt j x,y (ζ () + ζ ()) (ζ () + ζ ()). Altogether, we have H(t, x, y)dt j x y ζ () α( ) + β S ( ). This implies τ(s) (e α ) e β S ( /). where To upper bound τ(s), it is enough to lower bound ζ (). We consider ζ(s) = We consider + t s (Tr(h t ) )dt t s ( x S t s ( r t s x S = ζ (s)+ζ 3 (s) ζ 3 (s) = F (t) = x,y S H(t, x, x) x S x,y S Q r H(t, x, x) H(t, x, x) t s x,y S x,y S H(t, x, y))dt x,y S H(t, x, y)dt H(t, x, y)dt H(t, x, y) S 2 H(t, x, x). Q r H(t, x, y))dt We note that d dt F (t) = S 2 LH(t, x, y)+ LH(t, x, x) x S y S = (H(t, x, y) H(t, x, y )) + S 2 LH(t, x, x) x S y S,y S y y 6
17 and d 2 dt 2 F (t) = 6 Therefore, we have Consequently, x S,x S x x y S,y S y y S 2 6 L2 H(t, x, x) (H(t, x, y) H(t, x, y ) (H(t, x,y) H(t, x,y )) d d F (t) lim F (t) =. dt t dt F (t) lim t F (t) = and x,y S H(t, x, y)dt S 2 H(t, x, x). This implies Therefore we have ζ 3 (s) = t s x,y S H(t, x, y)dt s S 2 t H(t, x, x)dt s S 2 t H(t, x, x)dt and ζ 3 (s) = s S 2 t H(t, x, x)dx ζ 3() S 2 α Therefore This completes the proof of Theorem 3. τ(s) e α( S 2 /). 7
18 We remark that the various constants in Theorem 9 can be improved by imposing additional conditions on the induced subgraph S. For example, suppose that the induced subgraph S consists of vertices within an area with boundary consisting of horizontal and vertical line segments. If the boundary line segments are large, we can derive sharper estimates for ζ (). In additional, various convexity conditions [, 5] can be explored. However, these further considerations will not be included here. Acknowledgement I wish to thank John Schotland for first introducing me to many aspects of the zeta function for graphs.
