Modifying Heat Kernel Equation for Graphs
In spectral graph theory, I am aware that the following weight recurrence:
$$ w_t(v_i) = frac{1}{2}w_{t-1}(v_i)+sum_{v_j mid exists e_{ij} }frac{1}{2deg(v_i)} w_{t-1}(v_j) $$
Can be expressed in terms of eigen-vectors and eigenvalues of the Laplacian, $L=D-A$, nicely:
$$ W_t(G) = sum_{k=1}^n lambda_i^t a_i v_i $$
For the following recursion formula, would this equation work?
$$ omega_t(v_i) = sum_{v_j mid exists e_{ij} }frac{omega_{t-1}(v_j)}{deg(v_i)} $$
$$ Omega_t(G) = sum_{k=1}^n (2lambda_i-1)^t a_i v_i $$
My logic is that "$2lambda_i$" will double the weight, and the "$-1$" will subtract off the weight that a vertex directs back onto itself. This is not for a class, my school does not offer spectral graph theory.

the first 5 minutes of the video I linked in the comments shows how this describes heat dispersion. if there's a more appropriate name, I'm all ears.

Ah ok, I did not see the link. Wow 79. That was like before C64 home computers. Must have been a big project making such computations back then.
