Weighted prime geodesic theorems

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Prime geodesic theorems for weighted infinite graphs and weighted building quotients are given. The growth rates are expressed in terms of the spectral data of suitable translation operators inspired by a paper of Bass.


the author of the paper provides prime geodesic theorems for weighted infinite graphs and weighted building quotients. In particular, the following assertion is proved. Let \((X,w)\) be a weighted oriented graph. For natural \(m\in\mathbb{N}\), let \[ N_m=\sum_{c:\,l(c)=m}w(c)l(c_0), \] where \(l(c)\) and \(w(c)\) denote the length and weight of a cycle \(c\), and \(c_0\) is a uniquely determined the underlying primitive cycle to \(c\). Then there exist \(r>0\) and natural numbers \(n_1,n_2,\ldots,n_s\) such that \[ N_m=r^m\sum_{k=1}^s \mathbb{I}_{n_k\mathbb{N}}(m)+O(r-\varepsilon)^m,\,m\rightarrow\infty, \] for some positive \(\varepsilon\).
