Abstract: We introduce the concept of common–neighborhood energy $E_{CN}$ of a graph $G$ and obtain an upper bound for $E_{CN}$ when $G$ is strongly regular. We also show that $E_{CN}$ of several classes of graphs is less than the common–neighborhood energy of the complete graph $K_n$ .

Keywords: spectrum (of graph), energy (of graph), common–neighborhood spectrum, common–neighborhood energy

Classification (MSC2000): 05C50
