Spectra of random regular hypergraphs

Dumitriu, Ioana, Zhu, Yizhe

Understand

In this paper, we study the spectra of regular hypergraphs following the definitions from Feng and Li (1996).

  • Our main result is an analog of Alon's conjecture for the spectral gap of the random regular hypergraphs.
  • We then relate the second eigenvalues to both its expansion property and the mixing rate of the non-backtracking random walk on regular hypergraphs.
  • We also prove the spectral gap for the non-backtracking operator of a random regular hypergraph introduced in Angelini et al.
