Given a connected locally finite simplicial graph $ G$ with vertex set $V$, the combinatorial Laplacian $\Delta_G \colon \R^V \to \R^V$ is defined on the space of all real-valued functions on $V$. We prove that $\Delta_G$ is surjective if…
We prove various results connecting structural or algebraic properties of graphs and groups to conditions on their spaces of harmonic functions. In particular: we show that a group with a finitely supported symmetric measure has a…

We use two variational techniques to prove upper bounds for sums of the lowest several eigenvalues of matrices associated with finite, simple, combinatorial graphs. These include estimates for the adjacency matrix of a graph and for both…
We introduce the weighted graph Laplacian and the notion of Schr\"odinger operator on a locally finite weighted graph. Concerning essential self-adjointness, we extend Wojciechowski's and Dodziuk's results for graphs with vertex constant…

For a given infinite connected graph $G=(V,E)$ and an arbitrary but fixed conductance function $c$, we study an associated graph Laplacian $\Delta_{c}$; it is a generalized difference operator where the differences are measured across the…
We give a construction of a class of magnetic Laplacian operators on finite directed graphs. We study some general combinatorial and algebraic properties of operators in this class before applying the Harrell-Stubbe Averaged Variational…
In this note we give a short and self-contained proof for a criterion of Eidelheit on the solvability of linear equations in infinitely many variables. We use this criterion to study the surjectivity of magnetic Schr\"odinger operators on…
We consider the action of the (combinatorial) Laplacian of a finite and simple graph on integer vectors. By a \emph{Laplacian monopole} we mean an image vector negative at exactly one coordinate associated with a vertex. We consider a…
Laplacian operators on finite compact metric graphs are considered under the assumption that matching conditions at graph vertices are of $\delta$ and $\delta'$ types. An infinite series of trace formulae is obtained which link together two…
The spectrum of the Laplacian of successive Barycentric subdivisions of a graph converges exponentially fast to a limit which only depends on the clique number of the initial graph and not on the graph itself. The proof uses an explicit…
Using functions from electrical networks (graphs with resistors assigned to edges), we prove existence (with explicit formulas) of a canonical Parseval frame in the energy Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}_{E}$ of a prescribed infinite (or finite)…
A graph $H$ is ubiquitous if for every graph $G$ that for every natural number $n$ contains $n$ vertex-disjoint $H$-minors contains infinitely many vertex-disjoint $H$-minors. Andreae conjectured that every locally finite graph is…
We study the operator theory associated with such infinite graphs $G$ as occur in electrical networks, in fractals, in statistical mechanics, and even in internet search engines. Our emphasis is on the determination of spectral data for a…
We establish several new relations between the discrete transition operator, the continuous Laplacian and the averaging operator associated with combinatorial and metric graphs. It is shown that these operators can be expressed through each…
Given an infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a closed, infinite set $\Lambda$ of real numbers, we prove the existence of an unbounded self-adjoint operator whose graph is $G$ and whose spectrum is $\Lambda$.
We consider the problem of finding universal bounds of "isoperimetric" or "isodiametric" type on the spectral gap of the Laplacian on a metric graph with natural boundary conditions at the vertices, in terms of various analytical and…
Using the Spectral Theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators we prove that any countable family of Lagrangian subspaces of a symplectic Hilbert space admits a common complementary Lagrangian.
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…
