A note on topological matrices and characteristic polynomials of fourth-magnitude drainage net maps

A note on topological matrices and characteristic polynomials of fourth-magnitude drainage net maps

I suggest that a connection matrix and a characteristic polynomial, which can be formed for any drainage net, using Shreve link magnitudes, may be used in studying drainage nets. I show how the matrix and the polynomial can be formed, using selected drainage nets as examples.
