We prove an analogue of the weak Omori-Yau maximum principle and Khas'minskii's criterion for graphs in the general setting of Keller and Lenz. Our approach naturally gives the stability of stochastic incompleteness under certain surgeries…

We investigate spectral properties of quantum graphs in the form of a periodic chain of rings with a connecting link between each adjacent pair, assuming that wave functions at the vertices are matched through conditions manifestly…

We study the physical Laplacian and the corresponding heat flow on an infinite, locally finite graph with possibly unbounded valence.

This paper studies the Laplacian spectrum and the average effective resistance of (large) graphs that are sampled from graphons. Broadly speaking, our main finding is that the Laplacian eigenvalues of a large dense graph can be effectively…

We consider Laplacians on periodic both discrete and metric equilateral graphs. Their spectrum consists of an absolutely continuous part (which is a union of non-degenerate spectral bands) and flat bands, i.e., eigenvalues of infinite…

In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the heat kernel on the infinite Cayley graph of the modular group $\operatorname{PSL}_2\mathbb{Z}$, given by the presentation $\langle a,b\mid a^2=1, b^3=1\rangle$. Our approach extends the…

Graph burning is a discrete-time process that models the propagation of information in a network. Initially, we have an undirected graph of unburned vertices. At each time step, an unburned vertex is chosen to burn; additionally, unburned…

We characterize the spectrum of the Laplacian of graphs composed of one or two finite or infinite chains connected to a complete graph. We show the existence of localized eigenvectors of two types, eigenvectors that vanish exactly outside…

The Laplacian matrix of a simple graph is the difference of the diagonal matrix of vertex degree and the (0,1) adjacency matrix. In the past decades, the Laplacian spectrum has received much more and more attention, since it has been…

We introduce a new notion of graph sparsificaiton based on spectral similarity of graph Laplacians: spectral sparsification requires that the Laplacian quadratic form of the sparsifier approximate that of the original. This is equivalent to…

Given i.i.d. observations uniformly distributed on a closed manifold $\mathcal{M}\subseteq \mathbb{R}^p$, we study the spectral properties of the associated empirical graph Laplacian based on a Gaussian kernel. Our main results are…

In a directed graph, a kernel is a subset of vertices that is both stable and absorbing. Not all digraphs have a kernel, but a theorem due to Boros and Gurvich guarantees the existence of a kernel in every clique-acyclic orientation of a…
