About the book edit
Summary edit
- The main object of study of this book is the relationship between local and global properties of two-dimensional manifolds (surfaces) and embedded graphs. The dimension of the unknown parameter fits the dimension of the data of the measurements in several important instances of the inverse problems. Also, two-dimensional setting has an additional structure, due to the duality between harmonic functions on embedded graphs and manifolds and the connection to special matrices. The context of the inverse problems provides a unified point of view on the work of many great mathematicians. Some of the problems simplify significantly in the graph theoretical setting, but their solutions nevertheless convey the main ideas of the solutions for their continuous analogs. These are some of the main motivations for writing this book. Even though there are references to many mathematical areas in this book, it is practically self-contained, and is intended for the use by a wide audience of people interested in the subject.
Basic definitions and background edit
We will start with definitions and overview of the main mathematical objects that are involved in the inverse problems of our interest. These include the domains of definitions of the functions and operators, the boundary and spectral data and interpolation/extrapolation and restriction techniques.
Graphs and manifolds edit

Special matrices and determinants edit
Electrical networks edit
The inverse problems edit
- === Solving polynomial equation ===
Rectangular directed layered grid
- === Pascal triangle ===
Rectangular grids and gluing graphs
- === Monodromy operator ===
Ordinary differential equations (ODEs)
Applications to classical problems edit
On the inverse problem of Calderon edit
"Can One Hear the Shape of a Drum?" edit
On inhomogeneous string of Krein edit
Transformations of embedded graphs edit
The rules for replacing conductors in series or parallel connection by a single electrically equivalent conductor follow from the equivalence of the Y-Δ or star-mesh transforms.

The new spectral theorem edit
The layered case edit
Fourier coordinates edit
Stieltjes continued fractions edit
Blaschke products edit
Let a_i be a set of n points in the complex unit disc. The corresponding Blaschke product is defined as
If the set of points is finite, the function defines the n-to-1 map of the unit disc onto itself,
If the set of points is infinite, the product converges and defines an automorphism of the complex unit disc, given the Blaschke condition
The following fact will be useful in our calculations:
Pick-Nevanlinna interpolation edit
Cauchy matrices edit
- The Cayley transform provides the link between the Stieltjes continued fractions and Blaschke products and the Pick-Nevanlinna interpolation problem at the unit disc and the half-space.
Solution of the inverse problem edit
Rotation invariant layered networks
A. Elementary symmetric functions and permutations B. Continued fractions and interlacing properties of zeros of polynomials C. Wave-particle duality and identities involving integrals of paths in a graph and its Laplacian eigenvalues D. Square root and finite-differences
Given the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map of a layered network, find the eigenvalues and the interpolate, calculate the Blaschke product and continued fraction. That gives the conductivities of the layeres.
The square root of the minus Laplacian edit
- We will now consider an important special case of the inverse problem
