In [[mathematics]], the '''Cheeger constant''' (also '''Cheeger number''' or '''isoperimetric number''') of a [[graph (mathematics)|graph]] is a numerical measure of whether or not a graph has a "bottleneck". The Cheeger constant as a measure of "bottleneckedness" is of great interest in many areas: for example, constructing well-connected [[Computer networking|networks of computers]], [[Shuffling|card shuffling]], and [[Geometric topology|low-dimensional topology]] (in particular, the study of [[Hyperbolic geometry|hyperbolic]] 3-[[manifold]]s). | |||
The Cheeger constant is named after the [[mathematician]] [[Jeff Cheeger]]. | |||
==Definition== | |||
Let <math>G</math> be an undirected finite graph with vertex set <math>V(G)</math> and edge set <math>E(G)</math>. For a collection of vertices <math>A \subseteq V(G)</math>, let <math>\partial A</math> denote the collection of all edges going from a vertex in <math>A</math> to a vertex outside of <math>A</math>: | |||
:<math>\partial A := \{ (x, y) \in E(G) | x \in A, y \in V(G) \setminus A \}.</math> | |||
(Remember that edges are unordered, so the edge <math>(x, y)</math> is the same as the edge <math>(y, x)</math>.) Then the '''Cheeger constant''' of <math>G</math>, denoted <math>h(G)</math>, is defined by | |||
:<math>h(G) := \min \left\{ \left. \frac{| \partial A |}{| A |} \right| A \subseteq V(G), 0 < | A | \leq \frac{| V(G) |}{2} \right\}.</math> | |||
The Cheeger constant is strictly positive [[if and only if]] <math>G</math> is a [[Connectivity (graph theory)|connected graph]]. Intuitively, if the Cheeger constant is small but positive, then there exists a "bottleneck", in the sense that there are two "large" sets of vertices with "few" links (edges) between them. The Cheeger constant is "large" if any possible division of the vertex set into two subsets has "many" links between those two subsets. | |||

For example, consider a [[ring network]] of ''N'' ≥ 3 computers, thought of as a graph ''G''<sub>''N''</sub>. Number the computers 1, 2, ..., ''N'' clockwise around the ring. Mathematically, the vertex set is | |||
:<math>V(G_{N}) := \{ 1, 2, \dots, N \}</math> | |||
and the edge set is | |||
:<math>E(G_{N}) := \{ (1, 2), (2, 3), \dots, (N - 1, N), (N, 1) \}.</math> | |||
Take ''A'' to be a collection of <math>\lfloor N / 2 \rfloor</math> of these computers in a connected chain: | |||
:<math>A := \{ 1, 2, \dots, \lfloor N / 2 \rfloor \}.</math> | |||
Clearly, | |||
:<math>\partial A = \{ (\lfloor N / 2 \rfloor, \lfloor N / 2 \rfloor + 1), (N, 1) \},</math> | |||
so | |||
:<math>\frac{| \partial A |}{| A |} = \frac{2}{\lfloor N / 2 \rfloor} \to 0 \mbox{ as } N \to \infty.</math> | |||
This example provides an upper bound for the Cheeger constant ''h''(''G''<sub>''N''</sub>), which also tends to zero as ''N'' tends to infinity. Consequently, we would regard a ring network as highly "bottlenecked" for large ''N'', and this is highly undesirable in practical terms. We would only need one of the computers on the ring to fail, and network performance would be greatly reduced. If two non-adjacent computers were to fail, the network would split into two disconnected components. | |||

Template:No footnotes In mathematics, the Cheeger constant (also Cheeger number or isoperimetric number) of a graph is a numerical measure of whether or not a graph has a "bottleneck". The Cheeger constant as a measure of "bottleneckedness" is of great interest in many areas: for example, constructing well-connected networks of computers, card shuffling, and low-dimensional topology (in particular, the study of hyperbolic 3-manifolds).
The Cheeger constant is named after the mathematician Jeff Cheeger.
Definition
Let be an undirected finite graph with vertex set and edge set . For a collection of vertices , let denote the collection of all edges going from a vertex in to a vertex outside of :
(Remember that edges are unordered, so the edge is the same as the edge .) Then the Cheeger constant of , denoted , is defined by
The Cheeger constant is strictly positive if and only if is a connected graph. Intuitively, if the Cheeger constant is small but positive, then there exists a "bottleneck", in the sense that there are two "large" sets of vertices with "few" links (edges) between them. The Cheeger constant is "large" if any possible division of the vertex set into two subsets has "many" links between those two subsets.
Example: computer networking
In applications to theoretical computer science, one wishes to devise network configurations for which the Cheeger constant is high (at least, bounded away from zero) even when |V(G)| (the number of computers in the network) is large.
For example, consider a ring network of N ≥ 3 computers, thought of as a graph GN. Number the computers 1, 2, ..., N clockwise around the ring. Mathematically, the vertex set is
and the edge set is
Take A to be a collection of of these computers in a connected chain:
Clearly,
so
This example provides an upper bound for the Cheeger constant h(GN), which also tends to zero as N tends to infinity. Consequently, we would regard a ring network as highly "bottlenecked" for large N, and this is highly undesirable in practical terms. We would only need one of the computers on the ring to fail, and network performance would be greatly reduced. If two non-adjacent computers were to fail, the network would split into two disconnected components.
Cheeger Inequalities
The Cheeger constant is especially important in the context of expander graphs as it is a way to measure the edge expansion of a graph. The so-called Cheeger inequalities relate the Eigenvalue gap of a graph with its Cheeger constant.
