Abstract

Let pp be a prime number and let dd be a positive integer. In this paper, we generalize Iwasawa theory for graphs initiated by Gonet and Valli\`{e}res to weighted graphs. In particular, we prove an analogue of Iwasawa's class number formula and that of Kida's formula for compatible systems of (Z/pnZ)d(\mathbb{Z}/p^n\mathbb{Z})^d-covers of weighted graphs. We also provide numerical examples of characteristic elements and Iwasawa invariants. At the end of this paper, we give an application of the ideas of Iwasawa theory to the theory of discrete-time quantum walks in graphs.
