In this paper, we study the $q$-distance matrix for a distance-regular graph and show that the $q$-distance matrix of a distance-regular graph with classical parameters ($D, q, \alpha, \beta$) has exactly three distinct eigenvalues, of…

For a connected graph $G$, we present the concept of a new graph matrix related to its distance and Seidel matrix, called distance Seidel matrix $\mathcal{D}^S(G)$. Suppose that the eigenvalues of $\mathcal{D}^S(G)$ be $\partial_{1}^{S}(G)…

A $k$-regular graph is called a divisible design graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into $m$ classes of size $n$, such that two distinct vertices from the same class have exactly $\lambda_1$ common neighbours, and two vertices from…

We introduce the concept of distance ideals of graphs, which can be regarded as a generalization of the Smith normal form and the spectra of the distance matrix of a graph. We obtain a classification of the graphs with at most one trivial…

A $k$-regular graph on $v$ vertices is a {\em divisible design graph} if there exist integers $\lambda_1,\lambda_2,m,n$ such that the vertex set can be partitioned into $m$ classes of size $n$ and any two different vertices from the same…

A graph labeling assigns values to the components of a graph (vertices, edges, etc.). In particular, distance magic labelings have been widely studied in undirected graphs. In such a labeling, the vertices are labeled with unique values…

For a fixed positive integer $t$, we consider the graph colouring problem in which edges at distance at most $t$ are given distinct colours. We obtain sharp lower bounds for the distance-$t$ chromatic index, the least number of colours…

In this paper, we study distance-regular graphs $\Gamma$ that have a pair of distinct vertices, say x and y, such that the number of common neighbors of x and y is about half the valency of $\Gamma$. We show that if the diameter is at least…

A distance graph is an undirected graph on the integers where two integers are adjacent if their difference is in a prescribed distance set. The independence ratio of a distance graph $G$ is the maximum density of an independent set in $G$.…

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ with diameter $d$. Remoteness $\rho$ of $G$ is the maximum average distance from a vertex to all others and $\partial_1\geq\cdots\geq \partial_n$ are the distance eigenvalues of $G$. In \cite{AH},…
