On strongly closed subgraphs of highly regular graphs
AbstractA geodetically closed induced subgraph Δ of a graph Γ is defined to be strongly closed if Γi(α) ∩ Γ1(β) stays in Δ for every i and α, β ϵ Δ with ∂(α, β) = i. We study the existence conditions of strongly closed subgraphs in highly regular graphs such as distance-regular graphs or distance-biregular graphs
Lattices generated by join of strongly closed subgraphs in d-bounded distance-regular graphs
AbstractLet Γ be a d-bounded distance-regular graph with diameter d⩾3. Suppose that P(x) is a set of all strongly closed subgraphs containing x and that P(x,i) is a subset of P(x) consisting of all elements of P(x) with diameter i. Let L′(x,i) be the set generated by all joins of the elements in P(x,i). By ordering L′(x,i) by inclusion or reverse inclusion, L′(x,i) is denoted by LO′(x,i) or LR′(x,i). We prove that LO′(x,i) and LR′(x,i) are both finite atomic lattices, and give the conditions for them both being geometric lattices. We also give the eigenpolynomial of LO′(x,i)

Reconstruction of permutations distorted by single transposition errors
The reconstruction problem for permutations on elements from their
erroneous patterns which are distorted by transpositions is presented in this
paper. It is shown that for any an unknown permutation is uniquely
reconstructible from 4 distinct permutations at transposition distance at most
one from the unknown permutation. The {\it transposition distance} between two
permutations is defined as the least number of transpositions needed to
transform one into the other. The proposed approach is based on the
investigation of structural properties of a corresponding Cayley graph. In the
case of at most two transposition errors it is shown that
erroneous patterns are required in order to reconstruct an unknown permutation.
Similar results are obtained for two particular cases when permutations are
distorted by given transpositions. These results confirm some bounds for
regular graphs which are also presented in this paper.Comment: 5 pages, Report of paper presented at ISIT-200
Distance-regular graphs
This is a survey of distance-regular graphs. We present an introduction to
distance-regular graphs for the reader who is unfamiliar with the subject, and
then give an overview of some developments in the area of distance-regular
graphs since the monograph 'BCN' [Brouwer, A.E., Cohen, A.M., Neumaier, A.,
Distance-Regular Graphs, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 1989] was written.Comment: 156 page
Characterization and Efficient Search of Non-Elementary Trapping Sets of LDPC Codes with Applications to Stopping Sets
In this paper, we propose a characterization for non-elementary trapping sets
(NETSs) of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. The characterization is based
on viewing a NETS as a hierarchy of embedded graphs starting from an ETS. The
characterization corresponds to an efficient search algorithm that under
certain conditions is exhaustive. As an application of the proposed
characterization/search, we obtain lower and upper bounds on the stopping
distance of LDPC codes.
We examine a large number of regular and irregular LDPC codes, and
demonstrate the efficiency and versatility of our technique in finding lower
and upper bounds on, and in many cases the exact value of, . Finding
, or establishing search-based lower or upper bounds, for many of the
examined codes are out of the reach of any existing algorithm
On the editing distance of graphs
An edge-operation on a graph is defined to be either the deletion of an
existing edge or the addition of a nonexisting edge. Given a family of graphs
, the editing distance from to is the smallest
number of edge-operations needed to modify into a graph from .
In this paper, we fix a graph and consider , the set of
all graphs on vertices that have no induced copy of . We provide bounds
for the maximum over all -vertex graphs of the editing distance from
to , using an invariant we call the {\it binary chromatic
number} of the graph . We give asymptotically tight bounds for that distance
when is self-complementary and exact results for several small graphs
