Popis:	We investigate the torsion function or landscape function and its integral, the torsional rigidity, of Laplacians on metric graphs subject to $\delta$-vertex conditions. A variational characterization of torsional rigidity and Hadamard-type formulas are obtained, enabling the derivation of surgical principles. We use these principles to prove upper and lower bounds on the torsional rigidity and identify graphs maximizing and minimizing torsional rigidity among classes of graphs. We also investigate the question of positivity of the torsion function and reduce it to positivity of the spectrum of a particular discrete, weighted Laplacian. Additionally, we explore potential manifestations of Kohler-Jobin-type inequalities in the context of $\delta$-vertex conditions. Comment: 28 pages, 7 figures
