Renormalization of Spectra for Network Laplacian as Applied to Synchronization

Abstract :
Renormalization group methods from statistical physics are developed to accurately describe asymptotic properties of complex networks. As a demonstration, the determinant and the lower and upper eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix for a hierarchical network model are obtained to assess the collective ability to synchronize agents coupled on the network.
