The title of Martin's talk: On the eigenvalues of the graphs D(5,q)
Abstract:
Let q = p^e, where p is a prime and e is a positive integer. The family of graphs D(k, q), defined for any positive integer k and prime power q, were introduced by Lazebnik and Ustimenko in 1995. To this day, the connected components of the graphs D(k, q), provide the best known general lower bound for the size of a graph of given order and given girth. Furthermore, Ustimenko conjectured that the second largest eigenvalue of D(k, q) is always less than or equal to 2sqrt{q}. In this talk, we will discuss some of the recent progress on this conjecture, including new results that show that the second largest eigenvalue of D(5, q) is less than or equal to 2sqrt{q} when q is an odd prime power. This result is obtained through the use of representation theory and so a portion of the talk will be dedicated to giving a background on the tools used to prove the result.
This is joint work with Himanshu Gupta.
