Quiz 7 Quiz7 Problem 1. Independence The Problem. In the parts below, cite which tests apply to decide on independence or dependence. Choose one test and show complete details. 1 ! 1 ! (a) Vectors ~v = ;~v = 1 −1 2 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 B C B C B C (b) Vectors ~v1 = @ −1 A ;~v2 = @ 1 A ;~v3 = @ 0 A 0 −1 −1 2 5 (c) Vectors ~v1;~v2;~v3 are data packages constructed from the equations y = x ; y = x ; y = x10 on (−∞; 1). (d) Vectors ~v1;~v2;~v3 are data packages constructed from the equations y = 1 + x; y = 1 − x; y = x3 on (−∞; 1). Basic Test. To show three vectors are independent, form the system of equations c1~v1 + c2~v2 + c3~v3 = ~0; then solve for c1; c2; c3. If the only solution possible is c1 = c2 = c3 = 0, then the vectors are independent. Linear Combination Test. A list of vectors is independent if and only if each vector in the list is not a linear combination of the remaining vectors, and each vector in the list is not zero. Subset Test. Any nonvoid subset of an independent set is independent. The basic test leads to three quick independence tests for column vectors. All tests use the augmented matrix A of the vectors, which for 3 vectors is A =< ~v1j~v2j~v3 >. Rank Test. The vectors are independent if and only if rank(A) equals the number of vectors. Determinant Test. Assume A is square. The vectors are independent if and only if the deter- minant of A is nonzero. -
Minimum Rank, Maximum Nullity, and Zero Forcing of Graphs
Minimum Rank, Maximum Nullity, and Zero Forcing of Graphs Wayne Barrett (Brigham Young University), Steve Butler (Iowa State University), Minerva Catral (Xavier University), Shaun Fallat (University of Regina), H. Tracy Hall (Brigham Young University), Leslie Hogben (Iowa State University), Pauline van den Driessche (University of Victoria), Michael Young (Iowa State University) June 16-23, 2013 1 Mathematical Background Combinatorial matrix theory, which involves connections between linear algebra, graph theory, and combi- natorics, is a vital area and dynamic area of research, with applications to fields such as biology, chemistry, economics, and computer engineering. One area generating considerable interest recently is the study of the minimum rank of matrices associated with graphs. Let F be any field. For a graph G = (V; E), which has vertex set V = f1; : : : ; ng and edge set E, S(F; G) is the set of all symmetric n×n matrices A with entries from F such that for any non-diagonal entry aij in A, aij 6= 0 if and only if ij 2 E. The minimum rank of G is mr(F; G) = minfrank(A): A 2 S(F; G)g; and the maximum nullity of G is M(F; G) = maxfnull(A): A 2 S(F; G)g: Note that mr(F; G)+M(F; G) = jGj, where jGj is the number of vertices in G. Thus the problem of finding the minimum rank of a given graph is equivalent to the problem of determining its maximum nullity. The zero forcing number of a graph is the minimum number of blue vertices initially needed to force all the vertices in the graph blue according to the color-change rule. -

A Brief Introduction to Spectral Graph Theory
A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO SPECTRAL GRAPH THEORY CATHERINE BABECKI, KEVIN LIU, AND OMID SADEGHI MATH 563, SPRING 2020 Abstract. There are several matrices that can be associated to a graph. Spectral graph theory is the study of the spectrum, or set of eigenvalues, of these matrices and its relation to properties of the graph. We introduce the primary matrices associated with graphs, and discuss some interesting questions that spectral graph theory can answer. We also discuss a few applications. 1. Introduction and Definitions This work is primarily based on [1]. We expect the reader is familiar with some basic graph theory and linear algebra. We begin with some preliminary definitions. Definition 1. Let Γ be a graph without multiple edges. The adjacency matrix of Γ is the matrix A indexed by V (Γ), where Axy = 1 when there is an edge from x to y, and Axy = 0 otherwise. This can be generalized to multigraphs, where Axy becomes the number of edges from x to y. Definition 2. Let Γ be an undirected graph without loops. The incidence matrix of Γ is the matrix M, with rows indexed by vertices and columns indexed by edges, where Mxe = 1 whenever vertex x is an endpoint of edge e. For a directed graph without loss, the directed incidence matrix N is defined by Nxe = −1; 1; 0 corresponding to when x is the head of e, tail of e, or not on e. Definition 3. Let Γ be an undirected graph without loops. The Laplace matrix of Γ is the matrix L indexed by V (G) with zero row sums, where Lxy = −Axy for x 6= y. -

Network Properties Revealed Through Matrix Functions 697
SIAM REVIEW c 2010 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Vol. 52, No. 4, pp. 696–714 Network Properties Revealed ∗ through Matrix Functions † Ernesto Estrada Desmond J. Higham‡ Abstract. The emerging field of network science deals with the tasks of modeling, comparing, and summarizing large data sets that describe complex interactions. Because pairwise affinity data can be stored in a two-dimensional array, graph theory and applied linear algebra provide extremely useful tools. Here, we focus on the general concepts of centrality, com- municability,andbetweenness, each of which quantifies important features in a network. Some recent work in the mathematical physics literature has shown that the exponential of a network’s adjacency matrix can be used as the basis for defining and computing specific versions of these measures. We introduce here a general class of measures based on matrix functions, and show that a particular case involving a matrix resolvent arises naturally from graph-theoretic arguments. We also point out connections between these measures and the quantities typically computed when spectral methods are used for data mining tasks such as clustering and ordering. We finish with computational examples showing the new matrix resolvent version applied to real networks.

Incidence Matrices and Interval Graphs
Pacific Journal of Mathematics INCIDENCE MATRICES AND INTERVAL GRAPHS DELBERT RAY FULKERSON AND OLIVER GROSS Vol. 15, No. 3 November 1965 PACIFIC JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS Vol. 15, No. 3, 1965 INCIDENCE MATRICES AND INTERVAL GRAPHS D. R. FULKERSON AND 0. A. GROSS According to present genetic theory, the fine structure of genes consists of linearly ordered elements. A mutant gene is obtained by alteration of some connected portion of this structure. By examining data obtained from suitable experi- ments, it can be determined whether or not the blemished portions of two mutant genes intersect or not, and thus inter- section data for a large number of mutants can be represented as an undirected graph. If this graph is an "interval graph," then the observed data is consistent with a linear model of the gene. The problem of determining when a graph is an interval graph is a special case of the following problem concerning (0, l)-matrices: When can the rows of such a matrix be per- muted so as to make the l's in each column appear consecu- tively? A complete theory is obtained for this latter problem, culminating in a decomposition theorem which leads to a rapid algorithm for deciding the question, and for constructing the desired permutation when one exists. Let A — (dij) be an m by n matrix whose entries ai3 are all either 0 or 1. The matrix A may be regarded as the incidence matrix of elements el9 e2, , em vs. sets Sl9 S2, , Sn; that is, ai3 = 0 or 1 ac- cording as et is not or is a member of S3 . -

EXPLICIT BLOCK-STRUCTURES FOR BLOCK-SYMMETRIC FIEDLER-LIKE PENCILS∗ M. I. BUENO†, M. MARTIN ‡, J. PEREZ´ §, A. SONG ¶, AND I. VIVIANO k Abstract. In the last decade, there has been a continued effort to produce families of strong linearizations of a matrix polynomial P (λ), regular and singular, with good properties, such as, being companion forms, allowing the recovery of eigen- vectors of a regular P (λ) in an easy way, allowing the computation of the minimal indices of a singular P (λ) in an easy way, etc. As a consequence of this research, families such as the family of Fiedler pencils, the family of generalized Fiedler pencils (GFP), the family of Fiedler pencils with repetition, and the family of generalized Fiedler pencils with repetition (GFPR) were con- structed. In particular, one of the goals was to find in these families structured linearizations of structured matrix polynomials. For example, if a matrix polynomial P (λ) is symmetric (Hermitian), it is convenient to use linearizations of P (λ) that are also symmetric (Hermitian). Both the family of GFP and the family of GFPR contain block-symmetric linearizations of P (λ), which are symmetric (Hermitian) when P (λ) is. Now the objective is to determine which of those structured linearizations have the best numerical properties. The main obstacle for this study is the fact that these pencils are defined implicitly as products of so-called elementary matrices. Recent papers in the literature had as a goal to provide an explicit block-structure for the pencils belonging to the family of Fiedler pencils and any of its further generalizations to solve this problem. -
On the Theory of Point Weight Designs Royal Holloway
On the theory of Point Weight Designs Alexander W. Dent Technical Report RHUL–MA–2003–2 26 March 2001 Royal Holloway University of London Department of Mathematics Royal Holloway, University of London Egham, Surrey TW20 0EX, England http://www.rhul.ac.uk/mathematics/techreports Abstract A point-weight incidence structure is a structure of blocks and points where each point is associated with a positive integer weight. A point-weight design is a point-weight incidence structure where the sum of the weights of the points on a block is constant and there exist some condition that specifies the number of blocks that certain sets of points lie on. These structures share many similarities to classical designs. Chapter one provides an introduction to design theory and to some of the existing theory of point-weight designs. Chapter two develops a new type of point-weight design, termed a row-sum point-weight design, that has some of the matrix properties of classical designs. We examine the combinatorial aspects of these designs and show that a Fisher inequality holds and that this is dependent on certain combinatorial properties of the points of minimal weight. We define these points, and the designs containing them, to be either ‘awkward’ or ‘difficult’ depending on these properties. Chapter three extends the combinatorial analysis of row-sum point-weight designs. We examine structures that are simultaneously row-sum and point-sum point-weight designs, paying particular attention to the question of regularity. We also present several general construction techniques and specific examples of row-sum point-weight designs that are generated using these techniques. -

Applications of the Quantum Algorithm for St-Connectivity
Applications of the quantum algorithm for st-connectivity KAI DELORENZO1 , SHELBY KIMMEL1 , AND R. TEAL WITTER1 1Middlebury College, Computer Science Department, Middlebury, VT Abstract We present quantum algorithms for various problems related to graph connectivity. We give simple and query-optimal algorithms for cycle detection and odd-length cycle detection (bipartiteness) using a reduction to st-connectivity. Furthermore, we show that our algorithm for cycle detection has improved performance under the promise of large circuit rank or a small number of edges. We also provide algo- rithms for detecting even-length cycles and for estimating the circuit rank of a graph. All of our algorithms have logarithmic space complexity. 1 Introduction Quantum query algorithms are remarkably described by span programs [15, 16], a linear algebraic object originally created to study classical logspace complexity [12]. However, finding optimal span program algorithms can be challenging; while they can be obtained using a semidefinite program, the size of the program grows exponentially with the size of the input to the algorithm. Moreover, span programs are designed to characterize the query complexity of an algorithm, while in practice we also care about the time and space complexity. One of the nicest span programs is for the problem of undirected st-connectivity, in which one must decide whether two vertices s and t are connected in a given graph. It is “nice” for several reasons: It is easy to describe and understand why it is correct. • It corresponds to a quantum algorithm that uses logarithmic (in the number of vertices and edges of • the graph) space [4, 11]. -
Invariants of Incidence Matrices
Invariants of Incidence Matrices Chris Godsil (University of Waterloo), Peter Sin (University of Florida), Qing Xiang (University of Delaware). March 29 – April 3, 2009 1 Overview of the Field Incidence matrices arise whenever one attempts to find invariants of a relation between two (usually finite) sets. Researchers in design theory, coding theory, algebraic graph theory, representation theory, and finite geometry all encounter problems about modular ranks and Smith normal forms (SNF) of incidence matrices. For example, the work by Hamada [9] on the dimension of the code generated by r-flats in a projective geometry was motivated by problems in coding theory (Reed-Muller codes) and finite geometry; the work of Wilson [18] on the diagonal forms of subset-inclusion matrices was motivated by questions on existence of designs; and the papers [2] and [5] on p-ranks and Smith normal forms of subspace-inclusion matrices have their roots in representation theory and finite geometry. An impression of the current directions in research can be gained by considering our level of understanding of some fundamental examples. Incidence of subsets of a finite set Let Xr denote the set of subsets of size r in a finite set X. We can consider various incidence relations between Xr and Xs, such as inclusion, empty intersection or, more generally, intersection of fixed size t. These incidence systems are of central importance in the theory of designs, where they play a key role in Wilson’s fundamental work on existence theorems. They also appear in the theory of association schemes. 1 2 Incidence of subspaces of a finite vector space This class of incidence systems is the exact q-analogue of the class of subset incidences.
