Abstract

Inverse eigenvalue problems appear in various contexts throughout mathematics and engineering, and refer to determining all possible lists of eigenvalues (spectra) for matrices fitting some description. The inverse eigenvalue problem of a graph refers to determining the possible spectra of real symmetric matrices whose pattern of nonzero off-diagonal entries is described by the edges of a given graph (precise definitions of this and other terms are given in the next paragraph). This problem and related variants have been of interest for many years and were originally approached through the study of ordered multiplicity lists.
