We consider a bipartite distance-regular graph $G$ with diameter $D$ at least 4 and valency $k$ at least 3. We obtain upper and lower bounds for the local eigenvalues of $G$ in terms of the intersection numbers of $G$ and the eigenvalues of…

Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs with arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case where such graphs are bipartite and in which the undirected and directed degrees are one. The best graphs,…

There is a type of distance-regular graph, said to be $Q$-polynomial. In this paper we investigate a generalized $Q$-polynomial property involving a graph that is not necessarily distance-regular. We give a detailed description of an…

For a simple graph $G$, the $2$-distance graph, $D_2(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $2$ in the graph $G$. In this paper, we characterize all graphs with connected…

A strongly regular graph with parameters $(n,d,a,c)$ is a $d$-regular graph of order $n$, in which every pair of adjacent vertices has exactly $a$ common neighbor(s) and every pair of nonadjacent vertices has exactly $c$ common neighbor(s).…

Let $G$ denote a finite abelian group with identity 1 and let $S$ denote an inverse-closed subset of $G \setminus {1}$, which generates $G$ and for which there exists $s \in S$, such that $\la S \setminus \{s,s^{-1}\} \ra \ne G$. In this…

A {\em faithful (unit) distance graph} in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a graph whose set of vertices is a finite subset of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space, where two vertices are adjacent if and only if the Euclidean distance between them is…

In this paper we will look at the relationship between the intersection number c2 and its diameter for a distance-regular graph. And also, we give some tools to show that a distance-regular graph with large c2 is bipartite, and a tool to…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph with diameter $D\geq 1$. For a vertex $x$ of $\Gamma$ the corresponding subconstituent algebra $T=T(x)$ is generated by the adjacency matrix $A$ of $\Gamma$ and the dual adjacency…

We consider a 2-homogeneous bipartite distance-regular graph $\Gamma$ with diameter $D \geq 3$. We assume that $\Gamma$ is not a hypercube nor a cycle. We fix a $Q$-polynomial ordering of the primitive idempotents of $\Gamma$. This…

A Shilla distance-regular graph G (say with valency k) is a distance-regular graph with diameter 3 such that its second largest eigenvalue equals to a3. We will show that a3 divides k for a Shilla distance-regular graph G, and for G we…

A vertex with neighbours of degrees $d_1 \geq ... \geq d_r$ has {\em vertex type} $(d_1, ..., d_r)$. A graph is {\em vertex-oblique} if each vertex has a distinct vertex-type. While no graph can have distinct degrees, Schreyer, Walther and…

A simple undirected graph is said to be {\em semisymmetric} if it is regular and edge-transitive but not vertex-transitive. Every semisymmetric graph is a bipartite graph with two parts of equal size. It was proved in [{\em J. Combin.…

The distance matrix of a connected graph is the symmetric matrix with columns and rows indexed by the vertices and entries that are the pairwise distances between the corresponding vertices. We give a construction for graphs which differ in…

The topic of this paper is related to the well-known notion of unit distance graphs. Take a graph with its edges coloured red and blue such that for some $d$ it can be mapped into the plane with all vertices going to distinct points, the…

Characterizations graphs of some classes to induce periodic Grover walks have been studied for recent years. In particular, for the strongly regular graphs, it has been known that there are only three kinds of such graphs. Here, we focus on…
