We observe that the Laplacian of a random graph G on N vertices represents and explicitly solvable model in the limit of infinitely increasing N. Namely, we derive recurrent relations for the limiting averaged moments of the adjacency matrix of G. These relations allow one to study the corresponding eigenvalue distribution function; we show that its density has an infinite support in contrast to the case of the ordinary discrete Laplacian.

We develop a thorough analytical study of the $O(1/N)$ correction to the spectrum of regular random graphs with $N \rightarrow \infty$ nodes. The finite size fluctuations of the resolvent are given in terms of a weighted series over the contributions coming from loops of all possible lengths, from which we obtain the isolated eigenvalue as well as an analytical expression for the $O(1/N)$ correction to the continuous part of the spectrum. The comparison between this analytica...

We consider the adjacency matrix $A$ of a large random graph and study fluctuations of the function $f_n(z,u)=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=1}^n\exp\{-uG_{kk}(z)\}$ with $G(z)=(z-iA)^{-1}$. We prove that the moments of fluctuations normalized by $n^{-1/2}$ in the limit $n\to\infty$ satisfy the Wick relations for the Gaussian random variables. This allows us to prove central limit theorem for $\hbox{Tr}G(z)$ and then extend the result on the linear eigenvalue statistics $\hbox{Tr}\phi(A)...

In this paper, we analyze the limiting spectral distribution of the adjacency matrix of a random graph ensemble, proposed by Chung and Lu, in which a given expected degree sequence $\overline{w}_n^{^{T}} = (w^{(n)}_1,\ldots,w^{(n)}_n)$ is prescribed on the ensemble. Let $\mathbf{a}_{i,j} =1$ if there is an edge between the nodes $\{i,j\}$ and zero otherwise, and consider the normalized random adjacency matrix of the graph ensemble: $\mathbf{A}_n$ $=$ $ [\mathbf{a}_{i,j}/\sqrt...

In this paper, we investigate the spectral properties of the adjacency and the Laplacian matrices of random graphs. We prove that: (i) the law of large numbers for the spectral norms and the largest eigenvalues of the adjacency and the Laplacian matrices; (ii) under some further independent conditions, the normalized largest eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrices are dense in a compact interval almost surely; (iii) the empirical distributions of the eigenvalues of the Laplacia...

Network geometries are typically characterized by having a finite spectral dimension (SD), $d_{s}$ that characterizes the return time distribution of a random walk on a graph. The main purpose of this work is to determine the SD of a variety of random graphs called random geometric graphs (RGGs) in the thermodynamic regime, in which the average vertex degree is constant. The spectral dimension depends on the eigenvalue density (ED) of the RGG normalized Laplacian in the neigh...

Symmetric matrices with zero row sums occur in many theoretical settings and in real-life applications. When the offdiagonal elements of such matrices are i.i.d. random variables and the matrices are large, the eigenvalue distributions converge to a peculiar universal curve $p_{\mathrm{zrs}}(\lambda)$ that looks like a cross between the Wigner semicircle and a Gaussian distribution. An analytic theory for this curve, originally due to Fyodorov, can be developed using supersym...

Inhomogeneous Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs $\mathbb G_N$ on $N$ vertices in the non-dense regime are considered in this paper. The edge between the pair of vertices $\{i,j\}$ is retained with probability $\varepsilon_N\,f(\frac{i}{N},\frac{j}{N})$, $1 \leq i \neq j \leq N$, independently of other edges, where $f\colon\,[0,1] \times [0,1] \to [0,\infty)$ is a continuous function such that $f(x,y)=f(y,x)$ for all $x,y \in [0,1]$. We study the empirical distribution of both t...

The largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a network plays an important role in several network processes (e.g., synchronization of oscillators, percolation on directed networks, linear stability of equilibria of network coupled systems, etc.). In this paper we develop approximations to the largest eigenvalue of adjacency matrices and discuss the relationships between these approximations. Numerical experiments on simulated networks are used to test our results.

We present the exact analytical expression for the spectrum of a sparse non-Hermitian random matrix ensemble, generalizing two classical results in random-matrix theory: this analytical expression forms a non-Hermitian version of the Kesten-Mckay law as well as a sparse realization of Girko's elliptic law. Our exact result opens new perspectives in the study of several physical problems modelled on sparse random graphs. In this context, we show analytically that the convergen...

We study numerically and analytically the spectrum of incidence matrices of random labeled graphs on N vertices : any pair of vertices is connected by an edge with probability p. We give two algorithms to compute the moments of the eigenvalue distribution as explicit polynomials in N and p. For large N and fixed p the spectrum contains a large eigenvalue at Np and a semi-circle of "small" eigenvalues. For large N and fixed average connectivity pN (dilute or sparse random matr...
