Ebrahimi–Mohar–Nikiforov–Ahmady conjecture on the spectral sum of graphs
Let be any graph of order , and let and denote its two largest adjacency eigenvalues. Ebrahimi–Mohar–Nikiforov–Ahmady conjecture. The spectral sum satisfies
The conjecture extends the extremal spectral-sum question from trees to arbitrary graphs. The supplied context states that analogous questions for graphs remain open and gives no resolution of this bound.
