Groups and Graphs, Designs and Dynamics cover

A collection of four short courses on group representations, graph eigenvalues, statistical optimality, and symbolic dynamics.

This collection of four short courses looks at group representations, graph spectra, statistical optimality, and symbolic dynamics, highlighting their common roots in linear algebra. Aimed at researchers and beginning Ph.D. students, it includes copious exercises, notes, and references, leading the reader from the basics to high-level applications.This collection of four short courses looks at group representations, graph spectra, statistical optimality, and symbolic dynamics, highlighting their common roots in linear algebra. It leads students from the very beginnings in linear algebra to high-level applications: representations of finite groups, leading to probability models and harmonic analysis; eigenvalues of growing graphs from quantum probability techniques; statistical optimality of designs from Laplacian eigenvalues of graphs; and symbolic dynamics, applying matrix stability and K-theory. An invaluable resource for researchers and beginning Ph.D. students, this book includes copious exercises, notes, and references.
