“…There has been some prior work on spectral graph theory applied to biochemical networks, see for instance MacArthur et al (2008), MacArthur andSánchez-García (2009), Sánchez-García (2020), Lesne (2006), Mason and Verwoerd (2007), Perkins and Langston (2009), Banerjee and Jost (2009), Huang et al (2019), and there is a growing literature on how to use hypergraphs for modelling biochemical networks. In Estrada and Rodríguez-Velázquez (2006), for example, the concepts of subgraph centrality and clustering are generalised to the case of hypergraphs, and various practical examples, including examples from biology, are given.…”
