Abstract: Given a regular (connected) graph Gamma=(X,E) with adjacency matrix A, d+1 distinct eigenvalues, and diameter D, we give a characterization of when its distance matrix AD is a polynomial in A, in terms of the adjacency spectrum of Gamma and the arithmetic (or harmonic) mean of the numbers of vertices at distance leD1 of every vertex. The same results is proved for any graph by using its Laplacian matrix L and corresponding spectrum. When D=d we reobtain the spectral excess theorem characterizing distance-regular graphs.
