Spectral Properties of Self-similar Lattices and Iteration of Rational Maps
註釋In this text, the author considers discrete Laplace operators defined on lattices based on finitely ramified self-similar sets and their continuous analogs defined on the self-similar sets. He focuses on the spectral properties of these operators. The basic example is the lattice based on the Sierpinski gasket. He introduces a new renormalization map that appears to be a rational map defined on a smooth projective variety. (More precisely, this variety is isomorphic to a product of three types of Grassmannians: complex Grassmannians, Lagrangian Grassmannian, and orthogonal Grassmannians.) He relates some characteristics of the dynamics of its iterates with some characteristics of the spectrum of the operator. Specifically, he gives an explicit formula for the density of states in terms of the Green current of the map, and he relates the indeterminacy points of the map with the so-called Neumann-Dirichlet eigenvalues which lead to eigenfunctions with compact support on the unbounded lattice. Depending on the asymptotic degree of the map, he can prove drastically different spectral properties of the operators. The formalism is valid for the general class of finitely ramified self-similar sets.
