Bollobás-Nikiforov Conjecture for graphs with not so many triangles (2407.19341v1)

Published 27 Jul 2024 in math.CO

Abstract: Bollob\'as and Nikiforov conjectured that for any graph $G \neq K_n$ with $m$ edges [ \lambda_12+\lambda_22\le \bigg( 1-\frac{1}{\omega(G)}\bigg)2m] where $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ denote the two largest eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$, and $\omega$ denotes the clique number of $G$. This conjecture was recently verified for triangle-free graphs by Lin, Ning and Wu and for regular graphs by Zhang. Elphick, Wocjan and Linz proposed a generalization of this conjecture. In this note, we verify this generalized conjecture for the family of graphs on $m$ edges, which contain at most $O(m{1.5-\varepsilon})$ triangles for some $\varepsilon > 0$. In particular, we show that the conjecture is true for planar graphs, book-free graphs and cycle-free graphs.
