Abstract

Quantum graphs with varying edges lengths are constructed. We deal with two types of operators on the graph edges: the Schrödinger and the Dirac operators. The dynamics of quantum particles for these two cases is compared. From the physical point of view, the Schrödinger dynamics corresponds to nonrelativistic particle and the Dirac dynamics to the relativistic one.
