Developments on spectral characterizations of graphs (Q1011495)

In [\textit{E.R. van Dam} and \textit{W. H. Haemers}, ``Which graphs are determined by their spectrum?'', Linear Algebra Appl. 373, 241--272 (2003; Zbl 1026.05079)] is given a survey of answers to the question of which graphs are determined by the spectrum of some matrix associated to the graph. In particular, the usual adjacency matrix and the Laplacian matrix were addressed. Furthermore, some research questions on this topic are formulated. In the meantime, some of these questions have been (partially) answered. In the present paper is given a survey of these and other developments.
