Problem 7: Spectral Graph Theory on Riemann Surfaces Spectral properties of graphs on Riemann surfaces offer insight into graph geometry and combinatorial properties. 1. Eigenvalues and Surface Genus: Show that the Laplacian eigenvalues of a graph embedded on a Riemann surface are bounded by the genus g of the surface. Prove that increasing the genus of the surface reduces the spectral gap. ⚫ Calculate the spectral gap for a graph embedded on a torus and compare it to that of the same graph embedded on a genus-2 surface. 2. Graph Heat Kernel on Riemann Surfaces: • Define the heat kernel for a graph G embedded on a Riemann surface S. Show that the decay rate of the heat kernel is faster on surfaces with higher genus. • Prove that, for a fixed graph, the heat kernel of its embedding depends on the curvature of the underlying Riemann surface. 3. Cheeger's Inequality in Riemann Surfaces: •Extend Cheeger's inequality to a graph G embedded on a Riemann surface and relate it to the genus of the surface.
