Resource Title A spectral method for detecting core-periphery structure in graphs
Date Issued 10 March 2025
Abstract Core-periphery structure is a mesoscale structure that has been observed in realworld networks, composed of a densely connected set of core nodes, with a sparsely connected set of periphery nodes. Variants such as multiple core-periphery pairs or multicore-periphery have been proposed to capture different structures in real-world networks, and several methods have also been proposed to detect these different structures. Cucuringu et al. proposed a single core-periphery detection method
LOWRANK-CORE that uses a low-rank matrix approximation of the adjacency matrix of a graph. This study aims to develop an algorithm capable of detecting coreperiphery structure in graphs, motivated by the LOWRANK-CORE algorithm, but is based on a different observation, specifically the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of ideal single core-periphery and multiple core-periphery models.
