Abstract

We apply the quotient graph theory described by Band, Berkolaiko, Joyner and Liu to particular graphs symmetric with respect to S3S_3 and C3C_3 symmetry groups. We find the quotient graphs for the three-edge star quantum graph with Neumann boundary conditions at the loose ends and three types of coupling conditions at the central vertex (standard, δ\delta and preferred-orientation coupling). These quotient graphs are smaller than the original graph and the direct sum of quotient graph Hamiltonians is unitarily equivalent to the original Hamiltonian.
