Abstract

We work with increasing finite setsV m called pre-gaskets approximating the finite Sierpinski gasket located inR N−1 (N ≥ 3). The eigenvalues of the discrete Laplacian onV m under the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions are completely determined using the decimation method due to Rammal.
