Central Limit Theorems and Asymptotic Spectral Analysis on Large Graphs
Abstract
Regarding the adjacency matrix of a graph as a random variable in the framework of algebraic or noncommutative probability, we discuss a central limit theorem in which the size of a graph grows in several patterns. Various limit distributions are observed for some Cayley graphs and some distance-regular graphs. To obtain the central limit theorem of this type, we make combinatorial analysis of mixed moments of noncommutative random variables on one hand, and asymptotic analysis of spectral structure of the graph on the other hand.
