Geometry, Dynamics and Spectrum of Operators on Discrete Spaces

Abstract

Spectral theory is a gateway to fundamental insights in geometry and mathematical physics. In recent years the study of spectral problems in discrete spaces has gained enormous momentum. While there are some relations to continuum spaces, fascinating new phenomena have been discovered in the discrete setting throughout the last decade. The goal of the workshop was to bring together experts reporting about the recent developments in a broad variety of dynamical or geometric models and to reveal new connections and research directions.
