Title
A Majorization Bound for the Eigenvalues of Some Graph Laplacians
Abstract
Grone and Merris conjectured that the Laplacian spectrum of a graph is majorized by its conjugate vertex degree sequence. In this paper, we prove that this conjecture holds for a class of graphs, including trees. We also show that this conjecture and its generalization to graphs with Dirichlet boundary conditions are equivalent.
