Abstract
The paper presents a method for constructing solutions to initial-boundary value problems for the heat equation on simple metric graphs such as a star-shaped graph, a tree, and a triangle with three converging edges. The solutions to the problems are constructed by the so-called Fokas method, which is a generalization of the Fourier transform method. In this case, the problem is reduced to a system of algebraic equations for the Fourier transform of the unknown values of the solution at the vertices of the graph.
