| contents | In this article, we study random graphs with a given degree sequence $d_1, d_2, \cdots, d_n$ from the configuration model. We show that under mild assumptions of the degree sequence, the spectral distribution of the normalized Laplacian matrix of such random graph converges in distribution to the semicircle distribution as the number of vertices $n\rightarrow \infty$. This extends work by McKay (1981) and Tran, Vu and Wang (2013) which studied random regular graphs ($d_1=d_2=\cdots=d_n=d$). Furthermore, we extend the assumption to show that a slightly more general condition is equivalent to the weak convergence to semicircle distribution. The equivalence is also illustrated by numerical simulations. |
