A vertex-girth-regular $vgr(v,k,g,\lambda)$-graph is a $k$-regular graph of girth $g$ and order $v$ in which every vertex belongs to exactly $\lambda$ cycles of length $g$. While all vertex-transitive graphs are necessarily…

We characterise the form of all simple, finite graphs for which the girth of the graph is equal to the circumference of the graph. We apply this to prove a bound on the number of edges in such a graph.

A $k$-regular graph of girth $g$ is called vertex-girth-regular if every vertex is contained in the same number of cycles of length $g$. For integers $n, k, g$ and $\lambda$, we denote such a graph on $n$ vertices in which every vertex lies…

A $k$-regular graph of girth $g$ is called edge-girth-regular graph, shortly egr-graph, if each of its edges is contained in exactly $\lambda$ distinct $g-$cycles. An egr-graph is called extremal for the triple $(k, g, \lambda)$ if has the…

We describe a new random greedy algorithm for generating regular graphs of high girth: Let $k\geq 3$ and $c \in (0,1)$ be fixed. Let $n \in \mathbb{N}$ be even and set $g = c \log_{k-1} (n)$. Begin with a Hamilton cycle $G$ on $n$ vertices.…

The concept of pseudo-distance-regularity around a vertex of a graph is a natural generalization, for non-regular graphs, of the standard distance-regularity around a vertex. In this note, we prove that a pseudo-distance-regular graph…

For non-negative integers~$k$, we consider graphs in which every vertex has exactly $k$ vertices at distance~$2$, i.e., graphs whose distance-$2$ graphs are $k$-regular. We call such graphs $k$-metamour-regular motivated by the terminology…

The definition of edge-regularity in graphs is a relaxation of the definition of strong regularity, so strongly regular graphs are edge-regular and, not surprisingly, the family of edge-regular graphs is much larger and more diverse than…

Highly-regular graphs can be regarded as a combinatorial generalization of distance-regular graphs. From this standpoint, we study combinatorial aspects of highly-regular graphs. As a result, we give the following three main results in this…

Consider a family of graphs having a fixed girth and a large size. We give an optimal lower asymptotic bound on the number of even cycles of any constant length, as the order of the graphs tends to infinity.

Let $\Gamma=(G,\sigma)$ be a signed graph and $A(G,\sigma)$ be its adjacency matrix. Denote by $gr(G)$ the girth of $G$, which is the length of the shortest cycle in $G$. Let $r(G,\sigma)$ be the rank of $(G,\sigma)$. In this paper, we will…

A graph is called $(k,t)$-regular if it is $k$-regular and the induced subgraph on the neighbourhood of every vertex is $t$-regular. We find new conditions on $(k,t)$ for the existence of such graphs and provide a wide range of examples.

Edge-girth-regular graphs (abbreviated as \emph{egr} graphs) are regular graphs in which every edge is contained in the same number of shortest cycles. We prove that there is no $3$-regular \emph{egr} graph with girth $7$ such that every…

The unit-distance graph on the $n$-dimensional integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is called the $n$-dimensional grid. We attempt to maximize the girth of a $k$-regular (possibly induced) subgraph of the $n$-dimensional grid, and provide…

An edge-girth-regular graph $egr(v,k,g,\lambda)$, is a $k$-regular graph of order $v$, girth $g$ and with the property that each of its edges is contained in exactly $\lambda$ distinct $g$-cycles. An $egr(v,k,g,\lambda)$ is called extremal…

An edge-girth-regular graph $egr(n,k,g,\lambda)$ is a $k-$regular graph of order $n$, girth $g$ and with the property that each of its edges is contained in exactly $\lambda$ distinct $g-$cycles. We present new families of edge-girth…

In this paper we classify cubic vertex-transitive graphs of girth $7$, based on their signature. Such a graph is either a truncation of an arc-transitive dihedral scheme on a $7$-regular graph, the skeleton of a rotary map of type…

A signed graph is a graph whose edges are signed. In a vertex-signed graph the vertices are signed. The latter is called consistent if the product of signs in every circle is positive. The line graph of a signed graph is naturally…

Let $n\ge 1$ be an integer and $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field of characteristic $p$ with $q$ elements. In this paper, it is proved that the Wenger graph $W_n(q)$ and linearized Wenger graph $L_m(q)$ are edge-girth-regular…

A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…
