On the minimum semidefinite rank of a simple graph. (English) Zbl 1223.05170

Summary: The minimum semidefinite rank (msr) of a graph is defined to be the minimum rank among all positive semidefinite matrices whose zero/nonzero pattern corresponds to that graph. We recall some known facts and present new results, including results concerning the effects of vertex or edge removal from a graph on msr.
