You can find more information at \url{http://blogs.mathworks.com/cleve/2013/06/10/lake-arrowhead-coauthor-graph/}. Most of this assignment is derived from this archived work.} is to learn the importance of sparse linear algebra algorithms to solve fundamental questions in social network analyses. We will use the coauthor graph from the Householder Meeting and the social network of friendships from Zachary's karate club~\cite{karate}. These two graphs are one of the first examples where matrix methods were used in computational social network analyses. \section{The Reverse Cuthill McKee Ordering [10 points]} \section{Sparse Matrix Factorization [10 points]} \section{Degree Centrality [10 points]} \section{The Connectivity of the Coauthors [10 points]} \section{PageRank of the Coauthor Graph [10 points]} \section{Zachary's karate club: social network of friendships between 34 members [50 points]} \begin{thebibliography}{99} \bibitem{karate} The social network of a karate club at a US university, M.~E.~J.
