Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V(G)$ and edge set $E(G)$. Let $S$ be a subset of $V(G)$, and let $B(S)$ be the set of neighbours of $S$ in $V(G) \setminus S$. The differential $\partial(S)$ of $S$ is defined as…

We develop a graph-Hilbert-space framework, inspired by non-commutative geometry, on (infinite) graphs and use it to study spectral properies of \tit{graph-Laplacians} and so-called \tit{graph-Dirac-operators}. Putting the various pieces…
