The degree-diameter problem seeks to find the maximum possible order of a graph with a given (maximum) degree and diameter. It is known that graphs attaining the maximum possible value (the Moore bound) are extremely rare, but much activity…
The degree/diameter problem is the problem of finding the largest possible number of vertices $n_{\Delta,D}$ in a graph of given degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. We consider the problem for the case of diameter $D=2$. William G Brown gave…
This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for undirected circulant graphs. The focus is on extremal graphs of given (small) degree and arbitrary diameter. The published literature only covers graphs of up to degree 7. The approach…
The degree-diameter problem asks for the maximum number of vertices in a graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $k$. For fixed $k$, the answer is $\Theta(\Delta^k)$. We consider the degree-diameter problem for particular classes of…
This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for extremal and largest known undirected circulant graphs of degree 2 to 9 of arbitrary diameter. As these graphs are vertex transitive it is possible to define their distance partition. The…
The degree-diameter problem seeks to find the largest possible number of vertices in a graph having given diameter and given maximum degree. There has been much recent interest in the problem for mixed graphs, where we allow both undirected…
Almost Moore mixed graphs\/} appear in the context of the degree/diameter problem as a class of extremal mixed graphs, in the sense that their order is one unit less than the Moore bound for such graphs. The problem of their existence has…
The degree/diameter problem for mixed graphs asks for the largest possible order of a mixed graph with given diameter and degree parameters. Similarly the \emph{degree/geodecity} problem concerns the smallest order of a $k$-geodetic mixed…
We consider the degree-diameter problem for Cayley graphs of dihedral groups. We find upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of such a graph with diameter 2 and degree $d$. We completely determine the asymptotic behaviour…
It is known that the number of vertices of a graph of diameter two cannot exceed $d^2+1$. In this contribution we give a new lower bound for orders of Cayley graphs of diameter two in the form $C(d,2)>0.684d^2$ valid for all degrees $d\geq…
In this contribution we present a construction of large networks of diameter two and of order $\frac{1}{2}d^2$ for every degree $d\geq 8$, based on Cayley graphs with surprisingly simple underlying groups. For several small degrees we…
A transitive graph is 2-dimensional if it can be represented as the intersection of two linear orders. Such representations make answering of reachability queries trivial, and allow many problems that are NP-hard on arbitrary graphs to be…
We consider the degree-diameter problem for undirected and directed circulant graphs. To date, attempts to generate families of large circulant graphs of arbitrary degree for a given diameter have concentrated mainly on the diameter 2 case.…
The degree-diameter problem seeks to find the largest possible number of vertices in a graph having given diameter and given maximum degree. Very often the problem is studied for restricted families of graph such as vertex-transitive or…
For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ let $\delta_n$ be the smallest value such that every graph of order $n$ and minimum degree at least $\delta_n$ admits an orientation of diameter two. We show that $\delta_n=\frac{n}{2} + \Theta(\ln n)$.
In this short article, we consider a problem about $2$-partition of the vertices of a graph. If a graph admits such a partition into some 'small' graphs, then the number of edges cross an arbitrary cut of the graph $e(S,S^{c})$ has a nice…
The undirected degree/diameter and degree/girth problems and their directed analogues have been studied for many decades in the search for efficient network topologies. Recently such questions have received much attention in the setting of…
We wish to bring attention to a natural but slightly hidden problem, posed by Erd\H{o}s and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il in the late 1980s, an edge version of the degree--diameter problem. Our main result is that, for any graph of maximum degree…
In this paper we consider the degree/diameter problem, namely, given natural numbers {\Delta} \geq 2 and D \geq 1, find the maximum number N({\Delta},D) of vertices in a graph of maximum degree {\Delta} and diameter D. In this context, the…
This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for undirected circulant graphs. For degrees 10 and 11 newly discovered families of circulant graphs of arbitrary diameter are presented which are largest known and are conjectured to be…
