چکیده

We prove the nonexistence of a distance-regular graph with intersection array {74,54,15;1,9,60} and of distance-regular graphs with intersection arrays { 4r3 + 8r2 + 6r + 1,2r(r + 1)(2r + 1),2r2 + 2r + 1;1,2r(r + 1), (2r + 1)(2r2 + 2r + 1)} with r an integer and r 1. Both cases serve to illustrate a technique which can help in determining structural properties for distance-regular graphs and association schemes with a sufficient number of vanishing Krein parameters. © 2007 Elsevier Inc.

Using symbolic computation to prove nonexistence of distance-regular graphs

A package for the Sage computer algebra system is developed for checking feasibility of a given intersection array for a distance-regular graph. We use this tool to show that there is no distance-regular graph with intersection array {(2r + 1)(4r + 1)(4t− 1), 8r(4rt− r + 2t), (r + t)(4r + 1); 1, (r + t)(4r + 1), 4r(2r + 1)(4t− 1)} (r, t ≥ 1), {135,128,16; 1,16,120}, {234,165,12; 1,30,198} or {5...

On Q-polynomial regular near 2d-gons

We discuss thick regular near 2d-gons with a Q-polynomial collinearity graph. For d ≥ 4, we show that apart from Hamming near polygons and dual polar spaces there are no thick Q-polynomial regular near polygons. We also show that no regular near hexagons exist with parameters (s, t2, t) equal to (3, 1, 34), (8, 4, 740), (92, 64, 1314560), (95, 19, 1027064) or (105, 147, 2763012). Such regular n...

Distance-Balanced Closure of Some Graphs

In this paper we prove that any distance-balanced graph $G$ with $Delta(G)geq |V(G)|-3$ is regular. Also we define notion of distance-balanced closure of a graph and we find distance-balanced closures of trees $T$ with $Delta(T)geq |V(T)|-3$.

D-Spectrum and D-Energy of Complements of Iterated Line Graphs of Regular Graphs

The D-eigenvalues {µ1,…,µp} of a graph G are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix D and form its D-spectrum. The D-energy, ED(G) of G is given by ED (G) =∑i=1p |µi|. Two non cospectral graphs with respect to D are said to be D-equi energetic if they have the same D-energy. In this paper we show that if G is an r-regular graph on p vertices with 2r ≤ p - 1, then the complements of iterated lin...
