Oldies but goldies: L Page, S Brin, The PageRank citation ranking: Bringing order to the web, 1999. Page rank is the leading eigenvector of a stochastic matrix. Can be computed efficiently for sparse graph using power iterations. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank And the associated mathematical result is the Perron-Frobenius theorem, which is one of my favorite. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perron%E2…
