We give variants of the Krein bound and the absolute bound for graphs with a spectrum similar to that of a strongly regular graph. In particular, we investigate what we call approximately strongly regular graphs. We apply our results to…

Let $X = (V,E)$ be a graph. A subset $C \subseteq V(X)$ is a \emph{perfect code} of $X$ if $C$ is a coclique of $X$ with the property that any vertex in $V(X)\setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $C$. Given a finite group $G$…

Let $\Z_n[i]$ be the ring of Gaussian integers modulo a positive integer $n$. Very recently, Camarero and Mart\'{i}nez [IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory, {\bf 62} (2016), 1183--1192], showed that for every prime number $p>5$ such that $p\equiv…

This is a chapter in a forthcoming book on completely regular codes in distance regular graphs. The chapter provides an overview, and some original results, on codes in distance regular graphs which admit symmetries via a permutation group…

This work is a survey on completely regular codes. Known properties, relations with other combinatorial structures and constructions are stated. The existence problem is also discussed and known results for some particular cases are…

We first summarize the basic structure of the outer distribution module of a completely regular code. Then, employing a simple lemma concerning eigenvectors in association schemes, we propose to study the tightest case, where the indices of…

A perfect code in a graph $\Gamma=(V, E)$ is a subset $C$ of $V$ such that no two vertices in $C$ are adjacent and every vertex in $V \setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $C$. A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is called a subgroup…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity and $R^{+}$ be $Z^*(R)$ be the additive group and the set of all non-zero zero-divisors of $R$, respectively. We denote by $\mathbb{CAY}(R)$ the Cayley graph $Cay(R^+,Z^*(R))$. In this paper, we…

Orbits of graphs under local complementation (LC) and edge local complementation (ELC) have been studied in several different contexts. For instance, there are connections between orbits of graphs and error-correcting codes. We define a new…

Suppose that $F$ is a finite field and $R=M_n(F)$ is the ring of $n$-square matrices over $F$. Here we characterize when the Cayley graph of the additive group of $R$ with respect to the set of invertible elements of $R$, called the unitary…

Let $\Gamma$ be a graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$. A subset $C$ of $V(\Gamma)$ is called a perfect code in $\Gamma$ if $C$ is an independent set of $\Gamma$ and every vertex in $V(\Gamma)\setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in…

We study pseudo-geometric strongly regular graphs whose second subconstituent with respect to a vertex is a cover of a strongly regular graph or a complete graph. By studying the structure of such graphs, we characterize all graphs…

We give a complete characterization of simple graphs whose adjacency matrices generate binary linear complementary dual (LCD) codes. In particular, we completely characterize a distance-regular graph which yields an LCD code in terms of the…

In this paper new infinite families of linear binary completely transitive codes are presented. They have covering radius $\rho = 3$ and 4, and are a half part of the binary Hamming and the binary extended Hamming code of length $n=2^m-1$…

We study covering problems in Hamming and Grassmann spaces through a unified coding-theoretic and information-theoretic framework. Viewing covering as a form of quantization in general metric spaces, we introduce the notion of the average…

A subset $C$ of the vertex set of a graph $\Gamma$ is called a perfect code of $\Gamma$ if every vertex of $\Gamma$ is at distance no more than one to exactly one vertex in $C$. In this paper, we classify all connected quintic Cayley graphs…

A perfect code in a graph $\Gamma = (V, E)$ is a subset $C$ of $V$ such that no two vertices in $C$ are adjacent and every vertex in $V \setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $C$. A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is called a…

A graph $G$ covers a graph $H$ if there exists a locally bijective homomorphism from $G$ to $H$. We deal with regular covers where this homomorphism is prescribed by the action of a semiregular subgroup of $\textrm{Aut}(G)$. We study…

Let $\Ga = (V, E)$ be a graph and $a, b$ nonnegative integers. An $(a, b)$-regular set in $\Ga$ is a nonempty proper subset $D$ of $V$ such that every vertex in $D$ has exactly $a$ neighbours in $D$ and every vertex in $V \setminus D$ has…

Let $A_q(n,d)$ be the maximum order (maximum number of codewords) of a $q$-ary code of length $n$ and Hamming distance at least $d$. And let $A(n,d,w)$ that of a binary code of constant weight $w$. Building on results from algebraic graph…
