We describe singular diffusion in bounded subsets $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by form methods and characterize the associated operator. We also prove positivity and contractivity of the corresponding semigroup. This results in a description…
We describe the set of all Dirichlet forms associated to a given infinite graph in terms of Dirichlet forms on its Royden boundary. Our approach is purely analytical and uses form methods.
We study diffusions, variational principles and associated boundary value problems on directed graphs with natural weightings. Using random walks and exit times, we associate to certain subgraphs (domains) a pair of sequences, each of which…
We consider space-time quantum fields with exponential/trigonometric interactions. In the context of Euclidean quantum field theory, the former and the latter are called the Hoegh-Krohn model and the Sine-Gordon model, respectively. The…
In this article, we present a new method to study uniqueness of form extensions in a rather general setting. The method is based on the theory of ordered Hilbert spaces and the concept of domination of semigroups. Our main abstract result…
We consider graphs associated to Delone sets in Euclidean space. Such graphs arise in various ways from tilings. Here, we provide a unified framework. In this context, we study the associated Laplace operators and show Gaussian heat kernel…
Formal Laplace operators are analyzed for a large class of resistance networks with vertex weights. The graphs are completed with respect to the minimal resistance path metric. Compactness and a novel connectivity hypothesis for the…
We survey recent results on graphs and their Laplacians related to the behavior of the graph at large. In particular, we focus on Liouville theorems, recurrence and characterizations of Dirichlet forms via boundary terms.
A theoretical framework for sesquilinear forms defined on the direct sum of Hilbert spaces is developed in the first part. Conditions for the boundedness, ellipticity and coercivity of the sesquilinear form are proved. A criterion of E.-M.…
We introduce a class of partial differential equations on metric graphs associated with mixed evolution: on some edges we consider diffusion processes, on other ones transport phenomena. This yields a system of equations with possibly…
We study global properties of Dirichlet forms such as uniqueness of the Dirichlet extension, stochastic completeness and recurrence. We characterize these properties by means of vanishing of a boundary term in Green's formula for functions…
We consider a generalization of the diffusion equation on graphs. This generalized diffusion equation gives rise to both normal and superdiffusive processes on infinite one-dimensional graphs. The generalization is based on the $k$-path…
We consider diffusion on discrete measure spaces as encoded by Markovian semigroups arising from weighted graphs. We study whether the graph is uniquely determined if the diffusion is given up to order isomorphism. If the graph is recurrent…
The aim of the present paper is to analyse the spectrum of Laplace and Dirac type operators on metric graphs. In particular, we show for equilateral graphs how the spectrum (up to exceptional eigenvalues) can be described by a natural…
In the present paper, a discrete differential calculus is introduced and used to describe dynamical systems over arbitrary graphs. The discretization of space and time allows the derivation of Heisenberg-like uncertainty inequalities and of…
The paper studies Dirichlet forms on the classical Wiener space and the Wiener space over non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. The diffusion operator is almost everywhere an unbounded operator on the Cameron--Martin space. In…
The formulation of combinatorial differential forms, proposed by Forman for analysis of topological properties of discrete complexes, is extended by defining the operators required for analysis of physical processes dependent on scalar…
The $\Gamma$-convergence of lower bounded quadratic forms is used to study the singular operator limit of thin tubes (i.e., the vanishing of the cross section diameter) of the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions; a procedure…
Taking as starting point the approach to the divergence operator on weighted graphs, we give a notion of divergence associated to transport coupling and coupled measures on locally compact Hausdorff spaces. We consider the induced Laplacian…
This lecture presents recent advances in the theory of errors propagation. We first explain in which cases the propagation of errors may be performed with a first order differential calculus or needs a second order differential calculus.…
