Abstract

Continuing the previous research, we consider trees with given number of vertices and minimal spectral gap. Using the computer search, we conjecture that this spectral invariant is minimized for double comet trees. The conjecture is confirmed for trees with at most 20 vertices; simultaneously no counterexamples are encountered. We provide theoretical results concerning double comets and putative trees that minimize the spectral gap. We also compare the spectral gap of regular graphs and paths. Finally, a sequence of inequalities that involve the same invariant is obtained.
