Spectra of "fattened" open book structures

Mathematical Physics 2019-08-20 v1 math.MP

Abstract

We establish convergence of spectra of Neumann Laplacian in a thin neighborhood of a branching 2D structure in 3D to the spectrum of an appropriately defined operator on the structure itself. This operator is a 2D analog of the well known by now quantum graphs. As in the latter case, such considerations are triggered by various physics and engineering applications.
