Raffaella Mulas

This course by BeyondTheEdge researcher Raffaella Mulas gives an introduction to the spectral theory of graphs and hypergraphs.

BeyondTheEdge Course: Spectral Theory of Graphs and Hypergraphs

The course spectral theory of graphs and hypergraphs was prepared for the PhD students of the BeyondTheEdge MSCA Doctoral Network. The aim of the course is to introduce participants to spectral methods in discrete mathematics, with emphasis on the normalized Laplacian of graphs and hypergraphs, as well as on the non-backtracking Laplacian of graphs.
