We consider the relationship between the Laplacians on two sequences of planar graphs, one from the theory of self-similar groups and one from analysis on fractals. By establishing a spectral decimation map between these sequences we give an elementary calculation of the spectrum of the former, which was first computed by Grigorchuk and v{S}uni{c}. Our method also gives a full description of the eigenfunctions.
The objective of the well-known Towers of Hanoi puzzle is to move a set of disks one at a time from one of a set of pegs to another, while keeping the disks sorted on each peg. We propose an adversarial variation in which the first player forbids a s
We first enumerate a generalization of domino towers that was proposed by Tricia M. Brown (J. Integer Seq. 20 (2017)), which we call S-omino towers. We establish equations that the generating function must satisfy and then apply the Lagrange inversio
Given two graphs, a backbone and a finger, a comb product is a new graph obtained by grafting a copy of the finger into each vertex of the backbone. We study the comb graphs in the case when both components are the paths of order $n$ and $k$, respect
The emph{simplicial rook graph} SR(d,n) is the graph whose vertices are the lattice points in the $n$th dilate of the standard simplex in $mathbb{R}^d$, with two vertices adjacent if they differ in exactly two coordinates. We prove that the adjacency
We study the Laplacian spectrum of token graphs, also called symmetric powers of graphs. The $k$-token graph $F_k(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of vertices from $G$, two of which being adjacent whenever their symm
