We study Laplacians on graphs and networks via regular Dirichlet forms. We give a sufficient geometric condition for essential selfadjointness and explicitly determine the generators of the associated semigroups on all $\ell^p$, $1\leq p <…
In this paper, we investigate spectral properties of discrete Laplacians. Our study is based on the Hardy inequality and the use of super-harmonic functions. We recover and improve lower bounds for the bottom of the spectrum and of the…
The original contributions of this paper are twofold: a new understanding of the influence of noise on the eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian of a set of image patches, and an algorithm to estimate a denoised set of patches from a noisy…
We study two different types of gluing for graphs: interface (obtained by choosing a common subgraph as the gluing component) and bridge gluing (obtained by adding a set of edges to the given subgraphs). We introduce formulae for computing…
This paper deals with spectral graph theory issues related to questions of monotonicity and comparison of eigenvalues. We consider finite directed graphs with non symmetric edge weights and we introduce a special self-adjoint operator as…
Graph Laplacians on finite compact metric graphs are considered under the assumption that the matching conditions at the graph vertices are of either $\delta$ or $\delta'$ type. In either case, an infinite series of trace formulae which…
We develop the partitioning technique for quantum discrete systems. The graph consists of several subgraphs: a central graph and several branch graphs, with each branch graph being rooted by an individual node on the central one. We show…
We discuss Neumann problems for self-adjoint Laplacians on (possibly infinite) graphs. Under the assumption that the heat semigroup is ultracontractive we discuss the unique solvability for non-empty subgraphs with respect to the vertex…
It is well known that the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian for a compact perturbation of a three-dimensional, periodically twisted tube is unstable with respect to domain deformations. This means that if the periodically twisted tube is…
Graph Laplacians computed from weighted adjacency matrices are widely used to identify geometric structure in data, and clusters in particular; their spectral properties play a central role in a number of unsupervised and semi-supervised…
We consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials on periodic graphs. Their spectra consist of a finite number of bands. We perturb a periodic graph by adding edges in a periodic way (without changing the vertex set) and…
In the following, we give an explicit construction of a Laplacian on the Minkowski curve, with energy forms that bear the geometric characteristic of the structure. The spectrum of the Laplacian is obtained by means of spectral decimation.
We present examples of rooted tree graphs for which the Laplacian has singular continuous spectral measures. For some of these examples we further establish fractional Hausdorff dimensions. The singular continuous components, in these…
Laplacian operators are classical objects that are fundamental in both pure and applied mathematics and are becoming increasingly prominent in modern computational and data science fields such as applied and computational topology and…
A graph is called "Laplacian integral" if the eigenvalues of its Laplacian matrix are all integers. We investigate the subset of these graphs whose Laplacian is furthermore diagonalized by a matrix with entries coming from a fixed set, in…
The vertex-weighted Laplacian naturally extends the combinatorial Laplacian for simplicial complexes. Inspired by Lew's foundational techniques for vertex-weighted Laplacians, we present a comprehensive spectral analysis of this operator.…
For a two-dimensional curved waveguide, it is well known that the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian is unstable. Any perturbation of the straight strip produces eigenvalues below the essential spectrum. In this paper, a magnetic field is…
Differential calculus on discrete spaces is studied in the manner of non-commutative geometry by representing the differential calculus by an operator algebra on a suitable Krein space. The discrete analogue of a (pseudo-)Riemannian metric…
For a finite graph, we establish natural isomorphisms between eigenspaces of a Laplace operator acting on functions on the edges and eigenspaces of a transfer operator acting on functions on one-sided infinite non-backtracking paths.…
In the past decades, graphs that are determined by their spectrum have received more attention, since they have been applied to several fields, such as randomized algorithms, combinatorial optimization problems and machine learning. An…
