Edge-regular graphs with fixed smallest eigenvalue with an application to Neumaier graphs
The authors establish significant structural results for edge-regular graphs with bounded smallest eigenvalue and large valency, using the theory of Hoffman graphs. The authors prove that such graphs exhibit rigid quasi-clique decompositions and apply this to show that there exist only finitely many strictly Neumaier graphs with smallest eigenvalue at least \(-3\). The methods combine spectral graph theory with intricate structural analysis, extending known results about line graphs and quasi-cliques. While the paper contributes to the classification of Neumaier graphs, its techniques may also find broader application in the spectral analysis of regular graphs.
