In this article, we analyze the spectrum of discrete magnetic Laplacians (DML) on an infinite covering graph $\widetilde{G} \rightarrow G=\widetilde{G} /\Gamma$ with (Abelian) lattice group $\Gamma$ and periodic magnetic potential…
We present a numerical study of the spectrum of the Laplacian in an unbounded strip with PT-symmetric boundary conditions. We focus on non-Hermitian features of the model reflected in an unusual dependence of the eigenvalues below the…
The structure of finite-area topological defects in graphene is described in terms of both the direct honeycomb lattice and its dual triangular lattice. Such defects are equivalent to cutting out a patch of graphene and replacing it with a…
We present the spectrum of the (normalized) graph Laplacian as a systematic tool for the investigation of networks, and we describe basic properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. Processes of graph formation like motif joining or…
In this paper, we present some spectral sufficient conditions for a graph to be Hamilton-connected in terms of the spectral radius or signless Laplacian spectral radius of the graph. Our results improve some previous work.
We study wave propagation in 2D honeycomb structures with a non-commensurate or ``irrational'' line defect or edge. Our model is a Schr\"odinger operator which interpolates, across the edge, between two distinct bulk (asymptotic)…
The bulk boundary correspondence, one of the most significant features of topological matter, theoretically connects the existence of edge modes at the boundary with topological invariants of the bulk spectral bands. However, it remains…
Given a sequence of regular finite coverings of complete Riemannian manifolds, we consider the covering solenoid associated with the sequence. We study the leaf-wise Laplacian on the covering solenoid. The main result is that the spectrum…
Systems that can be described with the same mathematical models that account for the properties of electrons in graphene are known as graphene-like systems. These include magnons, photons, polaritons, acoustic waves, and electrons in…
A rose graph is a graph consisting of cycles that all meet in one vertex. We show that except for two specific examples, these rose graphs are determined by the Laplacian spectrum, thus proving a conjecture posed by Lui and Huang [F.J. Liu…
In this paper, we consider the spectrum of a model in quantum electrodynamics with a spatial cutoff. It is proven that (1) the Hamiltonian is self-adjoint; (2) under the infrared regularity condition, the Hamiltonian has a unique ground…
We study the spectral location of strongly pattern equivariant Hamiltonians arising through configurations on a colored lattice. Roughly speaking, two configurations are "close to each other" if, up to a translation, they "almost coincide"…
Finding hidden layers in complex networks is an important and a non-trivial problem in modern science. We explore the framework of quantum graphs to determine whether concealed parts of a multi-layer system exist and if so then what is…
We study the interplay between spectrum, geometry and boundary conditions for two distinguished self-adjoint realisations of the Laplacian on infinite metric graphs, the so-called riedrichs and Neumann extensions. We introduce a new…
It is known (E.L. Green (1997), O. Post (2003)) that for an arbitrary $m\in\mathbb{N}$ one can construct a periodic non-compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with at least $m$ gaps in the spectrum of the corresponding Laplace-Beltrami operator…
We show that the spectral gap problem is undecidable. Specifically, we construct families of translationally-invariant, nearest-neighbour Hamiltonians on a 2D square lattice of d-level quantum systems (d constant), for which determining…
The spectrum of the normalized graph Laplacian yields a very comprehensive set of invariants of a graph. In order to understand the information contained in those invariants better, we systematically investigate the behavior of this…
We give a description of the lower part of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in an unbounded 3D periodic lattice made of thin bars (of width $\varepsilon\ll1$) which have a square cross section. This spectrum coincides with the union…
In this paper, first, we establish a sufficient condition for a bipartite graph to be Hamilton-connected. Furthermore, we also give two sufficient conditions on distance signless Laplacian spectral radius for a graph to be…
In this paper we study the behaviour of the continuous spectrum of the Laplacian on a complete Riemannian manifold of bounded curvature under perturbations of the metric. The perturbations that we consider are such that its covariant…
