Abstract

The algebra of eikonals E\mathfrak E of a metric graph Ω\Omega is an operator CC^*-algebra determined by dynamical system with boundary control that describes wave propagation on the graph. In this paper, two canonical block forms (algebraic and geometric) of the algebra E\mathfrak E are provided for an arbitrary connected locally compact graph. These forms determine some metric graphs (frames) Fa\mathfrak F^{\,\rm a} and Fg\mathfrak F^{\,\rm g}. Frame Fa\mathfrak F^{\,\rm a} is determined by the boundary inverse data. Frame Fg\mathfrak F^{\,\rm g} is related to graph geometry. A class of ordinary graphs is introduced, whose frames are identical: FaFg\mathfrak F^{\,\rm a}\equiv\mathfrak F^{\,\rm g}. The results are supposed to be used in the inverse problem that consists in determination of the graph from its boundary inverse data.
