The logarithm of the Estrada index has been recently proposed as a spectral measure to characterize the robustness of complex networks. We derive novel analytic lower bounds for the logarithm of the Estrada index based on the Laplacian spectrum and the mixing times of random walks on the network. The main techniques employed are some inequalities, such as the thermodynamic inequality in statistical mechanics, a trace inequality of von Neumann, and a refined harmonic-arithmetic mean inequality.

It is found that neither the static snapshot graphs nor the aggregated graph can approximate the evolving graph itself, indicating the fundamental difference between the static and dynamic Estrada indices.

Estrada Index of Random Bipartite Graphs
Upper and lower bounds of $$EE(G)$$ for almost all bipartite graphs are given by investigating the upper and lower limits of the spectrum of random matrices.
Upper and lower bounds to $$EE$$ and $$\mathcal{L}EE$$ are established for edge-independent random graphs, containing the classical Erdos-Renyi graphs as special cases.
