We begin with basic but necessary de nitions in graph theory that are important to both describe and prove results in spectral graph theory. Then, we move to topics in linear algebra that are required to understand spectral graph theory, such as the Rayleigh quotient and spectral theorem.
The aim of this book is to understand the spectral grpah theory. We combine all classic sources, e.g. Fan Chung’s book, Dan Spielman and Luca Trevisan’s graduate courses.
There are three tasks that one must accomplish in the beginning of a course on Spectral Graph Theory: • One must convey how the coordinates of eigenvectors correspond to vertices in a graph. This is obvious to those who understand it, but it can take a while for students to grasp.

The stories will be told --- how the spectrum reveals fundamental properties of a graph, how spectral graph theory links the discrete universe to the continuous one through geometric, analytic and algebraic techniques, and how, through eigenvalues, theory and applications in communications and computer science come together in symbiotic harmony....
This report first presents a brief survey of some of the results and applications of spectral graph theory. A significant portion of the report is then devoted to a discussion of using spectral techniques in solving graph partitioning problems where graph vertices are

Lectures #11: Spectral Graph Theory, I Tim Roughgarden & Gregory Valiant∗ May 7, 2024 Spectral graph theory is the powerful and beautiful theory that arises from the following question: What properties of a graph are exposed/revealed if we 1) represent the graph as a matrix, and 2) study the eigenvectors/eigenvalues of that matrix.
Spectral graph theory is a vast and expanding area of combinatorics. We start these notes by introducing and motivating classical matrices associated with a graph, and then show how to derive combinatorial properties of a graph from the eigenvalues of these matrices.
A graph is a set of vertices V that are connected by a set of edges E with a function ψthat maps edges to unordered pairs of vertices. Figure 1: An undirected graph (Image from https://brilliant.org/wiki/graph-theory/) 2
Spectral graph theory is the study of a graph through the properties of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of its associated Laplacian matrix. In the following, we use G = (V;E) to
