Title: Hadamard diagonalizable graphs of small order
Speaker: Steve Butler Affiliation: Iowa State University Zoom: Contact Sabrina LatoAbstract:
A graph whose Laplacian matrix has a full set of eigenvectors with entries in {1,-1} is said to be Hadamard diagonalizable (i.e. there exists a Hadamard matrix which diagonalizes the Laplacian matrix). We demonstrate that the only diagonalizable graphs on n=8k+4 vertices are K_n and K_{n/2,n/2}.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is centralized within our Office of Indigenous Relations.
