- Abstract:
- We deal with two very related subjects: quasi-randomness and regular partitions. The purpose of the concept of quasi-randomness is to measure how much a given graph "resembles" a random one. Moreover, a regular partition approximates a given graph by a bounded number of quasi-random graphs. Regarding quasi-randomness, we present a new spectral characterization of low discrepancy, which extends to sparse graphs. Concerning regular partitions, we present a novel concept of regularity that takes into account the graph's degree distribution, and show that if G=(V,E) satisfies a certain boundedness condition, then G admits a regular partition. In addition, building on the work of Alon and Naor, we provide an algorithm that computes a regular partition of a given (possibly sparse) graph G in polynomial time.
