Abstract

The energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Koolen and Moulton have proved that the energy of a graph on n vertices is at most , and that equality holds if and only if the graph is strongly regular with parameters . Such graphs are equivalent to a certain type of Hadamard matrices. Here we survey constructions of these Hadamard matrices and the related strongly regular graphs.
