This note introduces a result on the location of eigenvalues, i.e., the spectrum, of the Laplacian for a family of undirected graphs with self-loops. We extend on the known results for the spectrum of undirected graphs without self-loops or…

In the present article magnetic Laplacians on a graph are analyzed. We provide a complete description of the set of all operators which can be obtained from a given self-adjoint Laplacian by perturbing it by magnetic fields. In particular,…
Periodic $2$nd order ordinary differential operators on $\R$ are known to have the edges of their spectra to occur only at the spectra of periodic and antiperiodic boundary value problems. The multi-dimensional analog of this property is…
We consider a simple modification of the 1D-Laplacian where non-mixed interface conditions occur at the boundaries of a finite interval. It has recently been shown that Schr\"odinger operators having this form allow a new approach to the…
We study differential forms on an algebraic compactification of a moduli space of metric graphs. Canonical examples of such forms are obtained by pulling back invariant differentials along a tropical Torelli map. The invariant differential…

We study Laplacians on graphs and networks via regular Dirichlet forms. We give a sufficient geometric condition for essential selfadjointness and explicitly determine the generators of the associated semigroups on all $\ell^p$, $1\leq p <…
The main objective of the present work is to study the negative spectrum of (differential) Laplace operators on metric graphs as well as their resolvents and associated heat semigroups. We prove an upper bound on the number of negative…

A sign is introduced in the usual Laplacian on graphs and the corresponding analogue of the isoperimetric constant for this Laplacian is presented, i.e. a geometric quantity which enables to bound from above and below the first eigenvalue.…
Introducing and studying the pattern frequency algebra, we prove the analogue of L\"uck's approximation theorems on $L^2$-spectral invariants in the case of aperiodic order. These results imply a uniform convergence theorem for the…

The $k$-th Laplacian spectral moment of a digraph $G$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^n \lambda_i^k$, where $\lambda_i$ are the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix of $G$ and $k$ is a nonnegative integer. For $k=2$, this invariant is better known…
