Zeta functions from graphs

The location of the nontrivial poles of a generalized zeta function is derived from the spectrum of Ramanujan graphs and bounds are established for irregular graphs. The existence of a similarity transformation of the diagonal matrix given by a specified set of eigenvalues to an adjacency matrix of a graph is proven, and the method yields a set of finite graphs with eigenvalues determined approximately by a finite subset of the poles of the Ihara zeta function.
