Abstract
Cheeger-type inequalities are derived relating various vertex isoperimetric constants to a Poincaré-type functional constant, denoted by λ∞. This approach refines results relating the spectral gap of a graph to the so-called magnification of a graph. A concentration result involving λ∞ is also derived.
