Distance-regular Cayley graphs with small valency
We consider the problem of which distance-regular graphs with small valency
are Cayley graphs. We determine the distance-regular Cayley graphs with valency
at most , the Cayley graphs among the distance-regular graphs with known
putative intersection arrays for valency , and the Cayley graphs among all
distance-regular graphs with girth and valency or . We obtain that
the incidence graphs of Desarguesian affine planes minus a parallel class of
lines are Cayley graphs. We show that the incidence graphs of the known
generalized hexagons are not Cayley graphs, and neither are some other
distance-regular graphs that come from small generalized quadrangles or
hexagons. Among some ``exceptional'' distance-regular graphs with small
valency, we find that the Armanios-Wells graph and the Klein graph are Cayley
graphs.Comment: 19 pages, 4 table

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
The Generalized Distance Spectrum of the Join of Graphs
Let G be a simple connected graph. In this paper, we study the spectral properties of the generalized distance matrix of graphs, the convex combination of the symmetric distance matrix D(G) and diagonal matrix of the vertex transmissions Tr(G) . We determine the spectrum of the join of two graphs and of the join of a regular graph with another graph, which is the union of two different regular graphs. Moreover, thanks to the symmetry of the matrices involved, we study the generalized distance spectrum of the graphs obtained by generalization of the join graph operation through their eigenvalues of adjacency matrices and some auxiliary matrices
Identifying codes in vertex-transitive graphs and strongly regular graphs
We consider the problem of computing identifying codes of graphs and its fractional relaxation. The ratio between the size of optimal integer and fractional solutions is between 1 and 2ln(vertical bar V vertical bar) + 1 where V is the set of vertices of the graph. We focus on vertex-transitive graphs for which we can compute the exact fractional solution. There are known examples of vertex-transitive graphs that reach both bounds. We exhibit infinite families of vertex-transitive graphs with integer and fractional identifying codes of order vertical bar V vertical bar(alpha) with alpha is an element of{1/4, 1/3, 2/5}These families are generalized quadrangles (strongly regular graphs based on finite geometries). They also provide examples for metric dimension of graphs
The endomorphism type of certain bipartite graphs and a characterization of projective planes
Fan (in Southeast Asian Bull Math 25, 217-221, 2001) determines the endomorphism type of a finite projective plane. In this note we show that Fan's result actually characterizes the class of projective planes among the finite bipartite graphs of diameter three. In fact, this will follow from a generalization of Fan's theorem and its converse to all finite bipartite graphs with diameter d and girth g such that (1) d + 1 < ga parts per thousand currency sign2d, and (2) every pair of adjacent edges is contained in a circuit of length g
