Combinatorial Perron values of trees and bottleneck matrices

The algebraic connectivity $a(G)$ of a graph $G$ is an important parameter, defined as the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of $G$. If $T$ is a tree, $a(T)$ is closely related to the Perron values (spectral radius) of so-called bottleneck matrices of subtrees of $T$. In this settin...
