Asymptotic Spectra of Large (Grid) Graphs with a Uniform Local Structure (Part I) : Theory

• We are mainly concerned with sequences of graphs having a grid geometry, with a uniform local structure in a bounded domain omega subset of Rd, d >= 1. When omega=[0,1] , such graphs include the standard Toeplitz graphs and, for omega=[0,1](d), the considered class includesd-level Toeplitz graphs. In the general case, the underlying sequence of adjacency matrices has a canonical eigenvalue distribution, in the Weyl sense, and we show that we can associate to it a symbol f. The knowledge of the symbol and of its basic analytical features provides many information on the eigenvalue structure, of localization, spectral gap, clustering, and distribution type.Few generalizations are also considered in connection with the notion of generalized locally Toeplitz sequences and applications are discussed, stemming e.g. from the approximation of differential operators via numerical schemes. Nevertheless, more applications can be taken into account, since the results presented here can be applied as well to study the spectral properties of adjacency matrices and Laplacian operators of general large graphs and networks
