TLDR
It is proved that if the average degree of the graph G after deleting any radius r ≥ 2 ball is at least d ≥ 2, then its second largest eigenvalue in absolute value λ(G) is at at least 2 √d - 1(1 - c log r/r).

Expander graphs and their applications

TL;DR: Expander graphs were first defined by Bassalygo and Pinsker in the early 1970s, and their existence was proved in the late 1970s as discussed by the authors and early 1980s.

The Non-Backtracking Spectrum of the Universal Cover of a Graph

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the spectral radius of the non-backtracking walk operator on the tree covering a finite graph is exactly Θ(n), where n is the growth rate of the tree.

Random walks, spectral radii, and Ramanujan graphs

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate properties of random walks on trees with finitely many cone types and apply their results to get estimates on spectral radii of groups and to check whether a given finite graph is Ramanujan.
