We investigate the properties of the zeros of the eigenfunctions on quantum graphs (metric graphs with a Schr\"odinger-type differential operator). Using tools such as scattering approach and eigenvalue interlacing inequalities we derive…

In this thesis, we study Laplacian eigenfunctions on metric graphs, also known as quantum graphs. We restrict the discussion to standard quantum graphs. These are finite connected metric graphs with functions that satisfy Neumann vertex…

We investigate quantum graphs with infinitely many vertices and edges without the common restriction on the geometry of the underlying metric graph that there is a positive lower bound on the lengths of its edges. Our central result is a…

Several types of systems were put forward during the past decades to show that there exist {\it isospectral} systems which are {\it metrically} different. One important class consists of Laplace Beltrami operators for pairs of flat tori in…

We examine the capacity of the complementarity spectrum to distinguish non-isomorphic digraphs. We focus on the seven families with exactly three complementarity eigenvalues. Our findings reveal that in some, but not all families, any two…

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…

This paper establishes an upper bound on the number of generalized cospectral mates of simple graphs, where the generalized spectrum consists of the spectrum of a graph and its complement. Moving beyond the classical problem of identifying…

We construct the new one-dimensional Dirac Hamiltonians that are spectrally isomorphic (not isospectral) with the known exactly solvable models. Explicit formulas for their spectra and eigenstates are provided. The operators are utilized…

We construct models of many-particle quantum graphs with singular two-particle contact interactions, which can be either hardcore- or delta-interactions. Self-adjoint realisations of the two-particle Laplacian including such interactions…

Not necessarily self-adjoint quantum graphs -- differential operators on metric graphs -- are considered. Assume in addition that the underlying metric graph possesses an automorphism (symmetry) $ \mathcal P $. If the differential operator…

Two graphs are said to be $Q$-cospectral if they share the same signless Laplacian spectrum. A simple graph is said to be determined by its signless Laplacian spectrum (abbreviated as DQS) if there exists no other non-isomorphic simple…

A concept of germ graphs and the M-function formalism are employed to construct large families of isospectral and isoscattering graphs. This approach represents a complete departure from the original approach pioneered by Sunada, where…

Determining whether two graphs are structurally identical is a fundamental problem with applications spanning mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and network science. Despite decades of study, graph isomorphism remains a challenging…
