A regular and edge-transitive graph that is not vertex-transitive is said to be semisymmetric. Every semisymmetric graph is necessarily bipartite, with the two parts having equal size and the automorphism group acting transitively on each of these two parts. A semisymmetric graph is called biprimiti

✦ Synopsis
A graph is 1-regular if its automorphism group acts regularly on the set of its arcs. Miller [J. Comb. Theory, B, 10 (1971), 163-182] constructed an infinite family of cubic 1-regular graphs of order 2 p, where p ≥ 13 is a prime congruent to 1 modulo 3. Marušič and Xu [J. Graph Theory, 25 (1997), 133-138] found a relation between cubic 1-regular graphs and tetravalent half-transitive graphs with girth 3 and Alspach et al. [J. Aust. Math. Soc. A, 56 (1994), 391-402] constructed infinitely many tetravalent half-transitive graphs with girth 3. Using these results, Miller's construction can be generalized to an infinite family of cubic 1-regular graphs of order 2n, where n ≥ 13 is odd such that 3 divides ϕ(n), the Euler function of n. In this paper, we construct an infinite family of cubic 1-regular graphs with order 8(k 2

## Abstract Let __n__ be an integer and __q__ be a prime power. Then for any 3 ≤ __n__ ≤ __q__−1, or __n__=2 and __q__ odd, we construct a connected __q__‐regular edge‐but not vertex‐transitive graph of order 2__q__^__n__+1^. This graph is defined via a system of equations over the finite field of
## Let be a distance-regular graph with where r ≥ 2 and c r +1 > 1. We prove that r = 2 except for the case a 1 = a r +1 = 0 and c r +1 = 2 by showing the existence of strongly closed subgraphs.
