Universal upper bound #
algConn_le_two_of_card: every simple graph on Fin n with exactly 2(n-2)
edges has algebraic connectivity at most 2.
This statement is Conjecture 1.5 of T. Kolokolnikov, Maximizing algebraic
connectivity for certain families of graphs (Linear Algebra and its
Applications, 2015; arXiv:1412.6147): the complete bipartite graph K_{2,n-2}
maximizes algebraic connectivity among all n-vertex graphs with 2(n-2) edges.
This library proves the conjecture, sorry-free and axiom-clean, for every
n ≥ 4. The result below is the upper-bound component of the direct
two-range assembly in Band.Final: the low-order proof handles 4 ≤ n ≤ 31,
and the incidence-capacity and exact Moore arguments jointly handle n ≥ 32.
