Elphick–Wocjan positive square-energy strengthening of Wilf's inequality
Elphick–Wocjan positive square-energy strengthening of Wilf's inequality
Let be a graph on vertices, let be its clique number, and let be the adjacency eigenvalues. Define the positive square energy by
Elphick–Wocjan conjecture. For every graph on vertices,
This conjecture asks whether Wilf's spectral clique bound remains valid after replacing the largest eigenvalue by the square root of the positive square energy; the supplied source does not state whether it has been resolved.
