Abstract
In this article we study the energy level spectrum of fractals which have block-hierarchical structures. We develop a method to study the spectral properties in terms of linearization of spectral decimation procedure and verify it numerically. Our approach provides qualitative explanations for various spectral properties of self-similar graphs within the theory of dynamical systems, including power-law level-spacing distribution, smooth density of states and effective chaotic regime.
