In this paper, we study some spectral properties of the discrete Schrödinger operator = Δ + q defined on a locally finite connected graph with an automorphism group whose orbit space is a finite graph.

The discrete Laplacian and its generalization have been explored from many different viewpoints (for instance, see [2] [4]). Our paper discusses the discrete analogue of the results on the bottom of the spectrum established by T. Kobayashi, K. Ono and T. Sunada [3] in the Riemannian-manifold-setting.
