Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with diameter $D\geq 3$. Juri\v{s}i\'c and Vidali conjectured that if $\Gamma$ is tight with classical parameters $(D,b,\alpha,\beta)$, $b\geq 2$, then $\Gamma$ is not locally the block graph of…

The subdivision graph $S(\Sigma)$ of a connected graph $\Sigma$ is constructed by adding a vertex in the middle of each edge. In a previous paper written with Cheryl E. Praeger, we characterised the graphs $\Sigma$ such that $S(\Sigma)$ is…

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…

For a group $G$ and a subset $X$ of $G$, the commuting graph of $X$, denoted by $\Gamma(G,X)$ is the graph whose vertex set is $X$ and any two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $X$ are adjacent if and only if they commute in $G$. In this article,…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph with diameter $D$ and valency $k \ge 3$. In [Homotopy in $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graphs, Discrete Math., {\bf 223} (2000), 189-206], H. Lewis showed that the girth of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite, undirected, connected, simple graph. We say that a matching $\mathcal{M}$ is a \textit{permutable $m$-matching} if $\mathcal{M}$ contains $m$ edges and the subgroup of $\text{Aut}(\Gamma)$ that fixes the matching…

The main result of this paper is that, if $\Gamma$ is a connected 4-valent $G$-arc-transitive graph and $v$ is a vertex of $\Gamma$, then either $\Gamma$ is one of a well understood infinite family of graphs, or $|G_v|\leq 2^43^6$ or…

A non-complete \drg $\Gamma$ is called geometric if there exists a set $\mathcal{C}$ of Delsarte cliques such that each edge of $\Gamma$ lies in a unique clique in $\mathcal{C}$. In this paper, we determine the non-complete distance-regular…

We prove that, if $\Gamma$ is a finite connected cubic vertex-transitive graph, then either there exists a semiregular automorphism of $\Gamma$ of order at least $6$, or the number of vertices of $\Gamma$ is bounded above by an absolute…

In this paper, we show that the edge connectivity of a distance-regular digraph $\Gamma$ with valency $k$ is $k$ and for $k>2$, any minimum edge cut of $\Gamma$ is the set of all edges going into (or coming out of) a single vertex. Moreover…

An automorphism of a graph is called quasi-semiregular if it fixes a unique vertex of the graph and its remaining cycles have the same length. This kind of symmetry of graphs was first investigated by Kutnar, Malni\v{c}, Mart\'{i}nez and…

A graph $\Gamma$ is $G$-symmetric if $G$ is a group of automorphisms of $\Gamma$ which is transitive on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices of $\Gamma$. If $V(\Gamma)$ admits a nontrivial $G$-invariant partition ${\cal B}$ such…

The {\em metric dimension} of a graph $\Gamma$ is the least number of vertices in a set with the property that the list of distances from any vertex to those in the set uniquely identifies that vertex. We consider the Grassmann graph…

The diameter of an undirected unweighted graph $G=(V,E)$ is the maximum value of the distance from any vertex $u$ to another vertex $v$ for $u,v \in V$ where distance i.e. $d(u,v)$ is the length of the shortest path from $u$ to $v$ in $G$.…

The conditional diameter of a connected graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$ is defined as follows: given a property ${\cal P}$ of a pair $(\Gamma_1, \Gamma_2)$ of subgraphs of $\Gamma$, the so-called \emph{conditional diameter} or ${\cal P}$-{\em…

Slimness of a graph measures the local deviation of its metric from a tree metric. In a graph $G=(V,E)$, a geodesic triangle $\bigtriangleup(x,y,z)$ with $x, y, z\in V$ is the union $P(x,y) \cup P(x,z) \cup P(y,z)$ of three shortest paths…

By "geodesic" we mean any sequence of vertices $(v_1,v_2,...,v_k)$ of a graph $G$ that constitute a shortest path from $v_1$ to $v_k$. We propose a novel, natural algorithm to enumerate all geodesics of $G$, and pit it (using Mathematica)…
