Such constrained problems can be NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems. They are restated as matrix nearness problems for the weight matrix of the graph, where the objective is to minimize the distance between the given weight matrix and perturbed weight matrices for which a functional of an eigenvalue and eigenvector of the graph Laplacian takes its minimal value. A key element in the numerical solution of these matrix nearness problems is the use of a gradient system of matrix differential equations for the functional.Read More
