$p$-Laplace Operators for Oriented Hypergraphs

Abstract: The $p$-Laplacian for graphs, as well as the vertex Laplace operator and the hyperedge Laplace operator for the general setting of oriented hypergraphs, are generalized. In particular, both a vertex $p$-Laplacian and a hyperedge $p$-Laplacian are defined for oriented hypergraphs, for all $p\geq 1$. Several spectral properties of these operators are investigated.
