Graph sparsification underlies a large number of algorithms, ranging from approximation algorithms for cut problems to solvers for linear systems in the graph Laplacian. In its strongest form, "spectral sparsification" reduces the number of…
We deepen the study of Dirichlet eigenvalues in bounded domains where a thin tube is attached to the boundary. As its section shrinks to a point, the problem is spectrally stable and we quantitatively investigate the rate of convergence of…

We consider the Laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the hypersurfaces and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We…
We derive a number of upper and lower bounds for the first nontrivial eigenvalue of a finite quantum graph in terms of the edge connectivity of the graph, i.e., the minimal number of edges which need to be removed to make the graph…
The resonances for the Dirichlet and Neumann Laplacian are studied on compactly perturbed waveguides. An upper bound on the number of resonances near the physical plane is proven. In the absence of resonances, an upper bound is proven for…

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…
We study measure perturbations of the Laplacian in $L^2(\R^2)$ supported by an infinite curve $\Gamma$ in the plane which is asymptotically straight in a suitable sense. We show that if $\Gamma$ is not a straight line, such a ``leaky…
A model is proposed where two $\chi^{(2)}$ nonlinear waveguides are contained in a cavity suited for second-harmonic generation. The evanescent wave coupling between the waveguides is considered as weak, and the interplay between this…
