$p$-Laplacian Operators on Hypergraphs

Abstract

This thesis generalizes the differential operators on standard oriented graphs and oriented hypergraphs introduced in 10.1137/15M1022793 and arXiv:2007.00325. The extended concepts of gradients, adjoints and $p$-Laplacians for vertices and (hyper)arcs include novel parametrization possibilities, while simultaneously fulfilling expected properties of the continuum setting, which are not granted by current definitions.
