We show that their theory can be extended to encompass distributions with finite support and give a matrix representation for the resulting operators. In the case of a uniform discrete distribution we make use of this matrix representation to explicitly determine the eigenvalues and the eigenfunctions of the associated Laplacian.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-13T16:59:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "42B35", "47G30", "45D05", "34B09", "35P20" ], "keywords": [ "measure-geometric laplacians", "matrix representation", "uniform discrete distribution", "encompass distributions", "finite support" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
