Spectral minimal partitions of combinatorial graphs

Matthias Hofmann, James B. Kennedy, Delio Mugnolo +1

This paper investigates spectral minimal partitions for weighted graphs, thus extending the extensive class of results that are currently available on domains and, to a lesser exte…

The role of expanders in the spectral geometry of metric graphs

Delio Mugnolo

After reviewing combinatorial and spectral definitions of expanders, we use precise lower bounds on Ramanujan graphs to investigate upper bounds -- and, specifically, the lack ther…

Ornstein--Uhlenbeck semigroup on rooted trees

Sahiba Arora, Marjeta Kramar Fijavž, Delio Mugnolo +1

We study Ornstein--Uhlenbeck operators on rooted metric trees equipped with a Gaussian-type measure. Using form methods, we construct Dirichlet and Neumann realisations correspondi…

Semigroups For Initial-Boundary Value Problems

Marjeta Kramar, Delio Mugnolo, Rainer Nagel

We review the theory of one-sided coupled operator matrices with a focus on evolution equations with inhomogeneous boundary conditions. (The original article had no abstract.)

Theory And Applications Of One-Sided Coupled Operator Matrices

Marjeta Kramar, Delio Mugnolo, Rainer Nagel

The theory of one-sided coupled operator matrices, recently introduced by K.-J. Engel, is an abstract framework for concrete initial value problems and allows complete information…

A semigroup analogue of the Fonf--Lin--Wojtaszczyk ergodic characterization of reflexive Banach spaces with a basis

Delio Mugnolo

In analogy to a recent result by V. Fonf, M. Lin, and P. Wojtaszczyk, we prove the following characterizations of a Banach space with a basis. (i) is finite-dimensional if…

Non-Markovian heat flows on directed hypergraphs

Delio Mugnolo

We introduce a semigroup framework for Laplacians on directed hypergraphs, extending the classical heat flow models on graphs and establishing hypergraphs as prototypical models fo…

On Spectral Properties of Restricted Fractional Laplacians with Self-adjoint Boundary Conditions on a Finite Interval

Jussi Behrndt, Markus Holzmann, Delio Mugnolo

We describe all self-adjoint realizations of the restricted fractional Laplacian with power on a bounded interval by imposing boundary conditions…

On the heat content of compact quantum graphs

Patrizio Bifulco, Delio Mugnolo

We study the heat content for Laplacians on compact, finite metric graphs with Dirichlet conditions imposed at the "boundary" (i.e., a given set of vertices). We prove a closed for…

Towards a theory of eigenvalue asymptotics on infinite metric graphs: the case of diagonal combs

James B. Kennedy, Delio Mugnolo, Matthias Täufer

We examine diagonal combs, a recently identified class of infinite metric graphs whose properties depend on one parameter. These graphs exhibit a fascinating regime where they poss…

On solitary waves for the Korteweg--de Vries equation on metric star graphs

Delio Mugnolo, Diego Noja, Christian Seifert

We study the Korteweg--de Vries equation on a metric star graph and investigate existence of solitary waves on the metric graph in terms of the coefficients of the equation on each…

Mean distance on metric graphs

Luís N. Baptista, James B. Kennedy, Delio Mugnolo

We introduce a natural notion of mean (or average) distance in the context of compact metric graphs, and study its relation to geometric properties of the graph. We show that it ex…

On the -torsional rigidity of combinatorial graphs

Patrizio Bifulco, Delio Mugnolo

We study the -\emph{torsion function} and the corresponding -\emph{torsional rigidity} associated with -Laplacians and, more generally, -Schrödinger operators, for $1<p…

On the Lipschitz continuity of the heat kernel

Patrizio Bifulco, Delio Mugnolo

We study integral kernels of strongly continuous semigroups on Lebesgue spaces over metric measure spaces. Based on semigroup smoothing properties and abstract Morrey-type inequali…

Sturm-Liouville Problems And Global Bounds By Small Control Sets And applications to quantum graphs

Michela Egidi, Delio Mugnolo, Albrecht Seelmann

We develop a Logvinenko--Sereda theory for one-dimensional vector-valued self-adjoint operators. We thus deliver upper bounds on -norms of eigenfunctions -- and linear combina…

Pointwise eigenvector estimates by landscape functions: some variations on the Filoche--Mayboroda--van den Berg bound

Delio Mugnolo

Landscape functions are a popular tool used to provide upper bounds for eigenvectors of Schrödinger operators on domains. We review some known results obtained in the last ten year…

Distinguishing co-spectral quantum graphs by scattering

Delio Mugnolo, Vyacheslav Pivovarchik

We propose a simple method for resolution of co-spectrality of Schrödinger operators on metric graphs. Our approach consists of attaching a lead to them and comparing the -funct…

On The Spectrum Of Infinite Quantum Graphs

Marco Düfel, James B. Kennedy, Delio Mugnolo +2

We study the interplay between spectrum, geometry and boundary conditions for two distinguished self-adjoint realisations of the Laplacian on infinite metric graphs, the so-called…

Impediments to diffusion in quantum graphs: geometry-based upper bounds on the spectral gap

Gregory Berkolaiko, James B. Kennedy, Pavel Kurasov +1

We derive several upper bounds on the spectral gap of the Laplacian with standard or Dirichlet vertex conditions on compact metric graphs. In particular, we obtain estimates based…

On torsional rigidity and ground-state energy of compact quantum graphs

Delio Mugnolo, Marvin Plümer

We develop the theory of torsional rigidity -- a quantity routinely considered for Dirichlet Laplacians on bounded planar domains -- for Laplacians on metric graphs with at least o…

Hubs-biased resistance distances on graphs and networks

Ernesto Estrada, Delio Mugnolo

We define and study two new kinds of "effective resistances" based on hubs-biased -- hubs-repelling and hubs-attracting -- models of navigating a graph/network. We prove that these…
