contents We consider an inhomogeneous Erdős-Rényi random graph $G_N$ with vertex set $[N] = \{1,\dots,N\}$ for which the pair of vertices $i,j \in [N]$, $i\neq j$, is connected by an edge with probability $r_N(\tfrac{i}{N},\tfrac{j}{N})$, independently of other pairs of vertices. Here, $r_N\colon\,[0,1]^2 \to (0,1)$ is a symmetric function that plays the role of a reference graphon. Let $λ_N$ be the maximal eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of $G_N$. We show that if $\lim_{N\to\infty} \|r_N-r\|_\infty = 0$ for some limiting graphon $r\colon\,[0,1]^2 \to (0,1)$, then $λ_N/N$ satisfies a downward LDP with rate $\binom{N}{2}$ and an upward LDP with rate $N$. We identify the associated rate functions $ψ_r$ and $\widehatψ_r$, and derive their basic properties.

We consider an inhomogeneous Erdős-Rényi random graph $G_N$ with vertex set $[N] = \{1,\dots,N\}$ for which the pair of vertices $i,j \in [N]$, $i\neq j$, is connected by an edge with probability $r_N(\tfrac{i}{N},\tfrac{j}{N})$, independently of other pairs of vertices. Here, $r_N\colon\,[0,1]^2 \to (0,1)$ is a symmetric function that plays the role of a reference graphon. Let $λ_N$ be the maximal eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of $G_N$. We show that if $\lim_{N\to\infty} \|r_N-r\|_\infty = 0$ for some limiting graphon $r\colon\,[0,1]^2 \to (0,1)$, then $λ_N/N$ satisfies a downward LDP with rate $\binom{N}{2}$ and an upward LDP with rate $N$. We identify the associated rate functions $ψ_r$ and $\widehatψ_r$, and derive their basic properties.
