Abstract
We introduce \(\delta \) type vertex conditions for beam operators, the fourth-order differential operator, on finite, compact and connected metric graphs. Our study the effect of certain geometrical alterations (graph surgery) of the graph on their spectra. Results are obtained for a class of vertex conditions which can be seen as an analogue of \(\delta \)-conditions for graphs Laplacian. There are a number of possible candidates of \(\delta \) type conditions for beam operators. We develop surgery principles and record the monotonicity properties of their spectrum, keeping in view the possibility that vertex conditions may change within the same class after certain graph alterations. We also demonstrate the applications of surgery principles by obtaining several lower and upper estimates on the eigenvalues.
期刊介绍:
MPAG is a peer-reviewed journal organized in sections. Each section is editorially independent and provides a high forum for research articles in the respective areas.
The entire editorial board commits itself to combine the requirements of an accurate and fast refereeing process.
The section on Probability and Statistical Physics focuses on probabilistic models and spatial stochastic processes arising in statistical physics. Examples include: interacting particle systems, non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, integrable probability, random graphs and percolation, critical phenomena and conformal theories. Applications of probability theory and statistical physics to other areas of mathematics, such as analysis (stochastic pde''s), random geometry, combinatorial aspects are also addressed.
The section on Quantum Theory publishes research papers on developments in geometry, probability and analysis that are relevant to quantum theory. Topics that are covered in this section include: classical and algebraic quantum field theories, deformation and geometric quantisation, index theory, Lie algebras and Hopf algebras, non-commutative geometry, spectral theory for quantum systems, disordered quantum systems (Anderson localization, quantum diffusion), many-body quantum physics with applications to condensed matter theory, partial differential equations emerging from quantum theory, quantum lattice systems, topological phases of matter, equilibrium and non-equilibrium quantum statistical mechanics, multiscale analysis, rigorous renormalisation group.
