Abstract:
Schrodinger operators on graphs with weighted edges may be defined using
possibly infinite systems of ordinary differential operators.
This work mainly considers radial trees, whose branching and edge lengths
depend only on the distance from the root vertex.
The analysis of operators with radial coefficients on radial trees is reduced,
by a method analogous to separation of variables, to nonclassical
boundary-value problems on the line with interior point conditions.
This reduction is used to study self adjoint problems requiring boundary
conditions `at infinity'.
