Spectral analysis on graph-like spaces

From MaRDI portal





The monograph introduces into the asymptotic analysis of graph-like spaces in the \(0\)-thickness limit and the convergence of associated operators and related objects. Furthermore it provides necessary tools from functional analysis and operator theory to study such convergence problems, where operators act in different spaces, and where spaces are coupled according to a graph. In particular the author has analyzed Laplace-like operators on thin tubular structures and their natural limits on metric graphs. New tools have been presented. These are the following: {\parindent=6mm \begin{itemize}\item[1)]Norm convergence of operators acting in different Hilbert spaces; \item[2)]An extension of the concept of boundary triples to partial differential operators; and \item[3)]An abstract definition of resonances via boundary triples. \end{itemize}} The presentation of these tools is such that one is able to apply them in other cases as well, especially when the spaces are perturbed. The author has succeeded to present an extensive self-contained account of a variety of results of both pure and applied character in a way to be very useful for a graduate course or seminar. It is a very successful publication in an active area of interdisciplinary research, where spectral analysis, graph-like spaces and applications interact in a beautiful manner.
