Let P(n) be the class of all connected graphs having exactly n ~> 1 negative eigenvalues (including their multiplicities). In this paper we prove that the class P(n) contains only finitely many so-called canonical graphs. The analogous statement for the class Q(n) of all connected graphs having exac

✦ Synopsis
In this paper we determine all finite connected graphs whose spectiviri contains exactly two negative eigenvalues. The main theorem says that a graph hm exactly two negative eigenvalues if and only if its "canonical graph" (defined below) is one of nine particular graphs on 3, 4, 5 and G vertices.

## Abstract Let __h(n__) be the largest integer such that there exists a graph with __n__ vertices having exactly one Hamiltonian circuit and exactly __h(n__) edges. We prove that __h(n__) = [__n__^2^/4]+1 (__n__ ≧ 4) and discuss some related problems.
We study nonregular graphs with three eigenvalues. We determine all the ones with least eigenvalue &2, and give new infinite families of examples. 1998 Academic Press ## 1. Introduction In this paper we look at the graphs that are generalizations of strongly regular graphs (cf. [3, 6, 16]) by drop
