Scattering resonances of large weakly open quantum graphs

In this paper, we consider a sequence of open quantum graphs, with uniformly bounded data, and we are interested in the asymptotic distribution of their scattering resonances. Supposing that the number of leads in our quantum graphs is small compared to the total number of edges, we show that most resonances are close to the real axis. More precisely, the asymptotic distribution of resonances of our open quantum graphs is the same as the asymptotic distribution of the square-root of the eigenvalues of the closed quantum graphs obtained by removing all the leads.
