Title: Equiangular lines with a fixed angle


Solving a longstanding problem on equiangular lines, we determine, for each
given fixed angle and in all sufficiently large dimensions, the maximum
number of lines pairwise separated by the given angle.

A key ingredient is a new result in spectral graph theory: the adjacency
matrix of a connected bounded degree graph has sublinear second eigenvalue
multiplicity.

Joint work with: Zilin Jiang, Jonathan Tidor, Yuan Yao, and Shengtong Zhang
