Abstract: We study infinite weighted graphs with view to extquotedblleft limits at infinity, extquotedblright or boundaries at infinity. Examples of such weighted graphs arise in infinite (in practice, that means extquotedblleft very extquotedblright large) networks of resistors, or in statistical mechanics models for classical or quantum systems. But more generally our analysis includes reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces and associated operators on them. If $X$ is some infinite set of vertices or nodes, in applications the essential ingredient going into the definition is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space; it measures the differences of functions on $X$ evaluated on pairs of points in $X$. And the Hilbert norm-squared in $mathcalH(X)$ will represent a suitable measure of energy. Associated unbounded operators will define a notion or dissipation, it can be a graph Laplacian, or a more abstract unbounded Hermitian operator defined from the reproducing kernel Hilbert space under study. We prove that there are two closed subspaces in reproducing kernel Hilbert space $mathcalH(X)$ which measure quantitative notions of limits at infinity in $X$, one generalizes finite-energy harmonic functions in $mathcalH(X)$, and the other a deficiency index of a natural operator in $mathcalH(X)$ associated directly with the diffusion. We establish these results in the abstract, and we offer examples and applications. Our results are related to, but different from, potential theoretic notions of extquotedblleft boundaries extquotedblright in more standard random walk models. Comparisons are made.
