Generic spectrum of the weighted Laplacian operator on Cayley graphs


الملخص بالإنكليزية

In this paper we address the problem of determining whether the eigenspaces of a class of weighted Laplacians on Cayley graphs are generically irreducible or not. This work is divided into two parts. In the first part, we express the weighted Laplacian on Cayley graphs as the divergence of a gradient in an analogous way to the approach adopted in Riemannian geometry. In the second part, we analyze its spectrum on left-invariant Cayley graphs endowed with an invariant metric in both directed and undirected cases. We give some criteria for a given eigenspace being generically irreducible. Finally, we introduce an additional operator which is comparable to the Laplacian, and we verify that the same criteria hold.
