Spectral Analysis and Operator Theory on (Infinite) Graphs, Graph-Laplacians and Dirac Operators and the Connes-Distance-Functional
نویسنده
چکیده
We develop (within a possibly new) framework spectral analysis and operator theory on (almost) general graphs and use it to study spectral properies of the graph-Laplacian and so-called graph-Dirac-operators. That is, we introduce a Hilbert space structure, being in our framework the direct sum of a node-Hilbert-space and a bond-Hilbert-space, a Dirac operator intertwining these components, and which is shown to be closely related to the graph-Laplacian, and, putting these pieces together, a spectral triple. With the help of this we derive an explicit expression for the Connesdistance function on general graphs and prove both a variety of rigorous estimates and calculate it for certain examples of graphs. We compare our results (arrived at within our particular framework) with the results of other authors and show that the seeming differences depend on the use of different graph-geometries and/or Dirac operators.

متن کاملGraph-Laplacians and Dirac Operators on (Infinite) Graphs and the Calculation of the Connes-Distance-Functional
We develop a graph-Hilbert-space framework, inspired by non-commutative geometry, on (infinite) graphs and use it to study spectral properies of graph-Laplacians and so-called graph-Dirac-operators. Putting the various pieces together we define a spectral triplet sharing most (if not all, depending on the particular graph model) of the properties of what Connes calls a spectral triple. With the...
متن کاملDirac Operators and the Calculation of the Connes Metric on arbitrary (Infinite) Graphs
As an outgrowth of our investigation of non-regular spaces within the context of quantum gravity and non-commutative geometry, we develop a graph Hilbert space framework on arbitrary (infinite) graphs and use it to study spectral properties of graph-Laplacians and graph-Dirac-operators. We define a spectral triplet sharing most of the properties of what Connes calls a spectral triple. With the ...
متن کاملA New Approach to Functional Analysis on Graphs, the Connes-Spectral Triple and its Distance Function
We develop a certain piece of functional analysis on general graphs and use it to create what Connes calls a’spectral triple’, i.e. a Hilbert space structure, a representation of a certain (function) algebra and a socalled ’Dirac operator’, encoding part of the geometric/algebraic properties of the graph. We derive in particular an explicit expression for the ’Connesdistance function’ and show ...
متن کاملInverse Problem for Interior Spectral Data of the Dirac Operator with Discontinuous Conditions
In this paper, we study the inverse problem for Dirac differential operators with discontinuity conditions in a compact interval. It is shown that the potential functions can be uniquely determined by the value of the potential on some interval and parts of two sets of eigenvalues. Also, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by a part of a set of values of eigenfun...
