Abstract

Concepts and definitions for different types of symmetry and regularity are already published in a book by Kaveh, “Optimal Analysis of Structures by Concepts of Symmetry and Regularity”. In this chapter definitions and concepts relevant to the contents of the present book are provided to make it self-content. In this chapter different types of graph products, method of block diagonaliztion, techniques of calculating the eigenvalues and eigenvectors, decomposition of adjacency and Laplacian, and circulant matrices are presented.
