Spectral asymptotics of the Laplacian on supercritical bond-percolation graphs. (English) Zbl 1127.60090

Summary: We investigate Laplacians on supercritical bond-percolation graphs with different boundary conditions at cluster borders. The integrated density of states of the Dirichlet Laplacian is found to exhibit a Lifshits tail at the lower spectral edge, while that of the Neumann Laplacian shows a van Hove asymptotics, which results from the percolating cluster. At the upper spectral edge, the behaviour is reversed.
