Abstract
Let G be a simple graph with least eigenvalue λ and let S be a set of vertices in G which induce a subgraph with mean degree k. We use a quadratic programming technique in conjunction with the main angles of G to establish an upper bound of the form |S|?inf{(k+t)qG(t):t>-λ} where qG is a rational function determined by the spectra of G and its complement. In the case k=0 we obtain improved bounds for the independence number of various benchmark graphs.
