We introduce and study Laplacians on a finite metric graph endowed with generalized densities, that is, measures of finite mass. One important motivation is that this setting provides a common framework for several interesting classes of…
In this paper, a new class of hemivariational inequalities is introduced. It concerns Laplace operator on locally finite graphs together with multivalued nonmonotone nonlinearities expressed in terms of Clarke's subdifferential. First of…
In this paper, we derive an upper bound for higher order eigenvalues of the normalized Laplace operator associated with a symmetric finite graph in terms of lower order eigenvalues.
We establish various nodal domain theorems for $p$-Laplacians on signed graphs, which unify most of the existing results on nodal domains of graph $p$-Laplacians and arbitrary symmetric matrices. Based on our nodal domain estimates, we…
On finite metric graphs we consider Laplace operators, subject to various classes of non-self-adjoint boundary conditions imposed at graph vertices. We investigate spectral properties, existence of a Riesz basis of projectors and similarity…
In this work we consider the Neumann problem for the Laplace operator and we prove an existence result in the H\"older spaces and obtain Schauder estimates. According to our knowledge this result is not explicitly proved in the several…
The Cheeger constant of a graph, or equivalently its coboundary expansion, quantifies the expansion of the graph. This notion assumes an implicit choice of a coefficient group, namely, $\mathbb{F}_2$. In this paper, we study Cheeger-type…
The spectral theory of graphs provides a bridge between classical signal processing and the nascent field of graph signal processing. In this paper, a spectral graph analogy to Heisenberg's celebrated uncertainty principle is developed.…
We expand upon a graph theoretic set of uncertainty principles with tight bounds for difference estimators acting simultaneously in the graph domain and the frequency domain. We show that the eigenfunctions of a modified graph Laplacian and…
In this paper we consider an initial-boundary value problem related to some network dynamics where the underlying graph has unbounded edges. We show that there exists a C0-semigroup for this problem using a general result from the…
We show how 'test' vector fields may be used to give lower bounds for the Cheeger constant of a Euclidean domain (or Riemannian manifold with boundary), and hence for the lowest eigenvalue of the Dirichlet Laplacian on the domain. Also, we…
The problem of multiway partitioning of an undirected graph is considered. A spectral method is used, where the k > 2 largest eigenvalues of the normalized adjacency matrix (equivalently, the k smallest eigenvalues of the normalized graph…
In this paper, we derive Li-Yau inequality for unbounded Laplacian on complete weighted graphs with the assumption of the curvature-dimension inequality $CDE'(n,K)$, which can be regarded as a notion of curvature on graphs. Furthermore, we…
Cheeger's fundamental inequality states that any edge-weighted graph has a vertex subset $S$ such that its expansion (a.k.a. conductance) is bounded as follows: \[ \phi(S) \defeq \frac{w(S,\bar{S})}{\min \set{w(S), w(\bar{S})}} \leq…
A celebrated theorem of Kanai states that quasi-isometries preserve isoperimetric inequalities between uniform Riemannian manifolds (with positive injectivity radius) and graphs. Our main result states that we can study the (Cheeger)…
We discuss optimal lower bounds for eigenvalues of Laplacians on weighted graphs. These bounds are formulated in terms of the geometry and, more specifically, the inradius of subsets of the graph. In particular, we study the first non-zero…
We study the first eigenvalue of the $p-$Laplacian (with $1<p<\infty$) on a quantum graph with Dirichlet or Kirchoff boundary conditions on the nodes. We find lower and upper bounds for this eigenvalue when we prescribe the total sum of the…
The data clustering problem consists in dividing a data set into prescribed groups of homogeneous data. This is a NP-hard problem that can be relaxed in the spectral graph theory, where the optimal cuts of a graph are related to the…
