الوصف: Quantum graphs have attracted attention from mathematicians for some time. A quantum graph is defined by having a Laplacian on each edge of a metric graph and imposing boundary conditions at the vertices to get an eigenvalue problem. A problem studying such quantum graphs is that the spectrum is timeconsuming to compute by hand and the inverse problem of finding a quantum graph having a specified spectrum is difficult. We solve the forward problem, to find the eigenvalues, using a previously developed computer program. We obtain all eigenvalues analytically for not too big graphs that have rationally dependent edges. We solve the inverse problem using "spectrally grown graphs". The spectrally grown graphs are evolved from a starting (parent) graph such that the child graphs have eigenvalues are close to some criterion. Our experiments show that the method works and we can usually find graphs having spectra which are numerically close to a prescribed spectrum. There are naturally exceptions, such as if no graph has the prescribed spectrum. The selection criteria (goals) strongly influence the shape of the evolved graphs. Our experiments allows us to make new conjectures concerning the spectra of quantum graphs. We open-source our software at https://github.com/meapistol/Spectra-of-graphs.
