β¦ Synopsis
Let β« Ο ( X , R ) denote a distance-regular graph with diameter D Ρ 3 and distance function β¦ . A (vertex) subgraph β¬ ' X is said to be weak -geodetically closed whenever for all x , y β¬ and all z X ,
β« is said to be D -bounded whenever , for all x , y X , x and y are contained in a common regular weak-geodetically closed subgraph of diameter β¦ ( x , y ) . Assume that β« is D -bounded .
Let P ( β« ) denote the poset the elements of which are the weak-geodetically closed subgraphs of β« with partial order by reverse inclusion . We obtain new inequalities for the intersection numbers of β« ; equality is obtained in each of these inequalities if f the intervals in P ( β« ) are modular . Moreover , we show this occurs if β« has classical parameters and D Ρ 4 . We obtain the following corollary without assuming β« to be D -bounded : C OROLLARY . Let β« denote a distance -regular graph with classical parameters ( D , b , β£ , β€ ) and D Ρ 4 . Suppose that b Ο½ Οͺ 1 , and suppose the intersection numbers a 1 ΟΆ 0 and c 2 ΟΎ 1 .

In this paper we give a sufficient condition for the existence of a strongly closed subgraph which is (c q + a q )-regular of diameter q containing a given pair of vertices at distance q in a distance-regular graph. Moreover we show that a distance-regular graph with r = max{ j | (c j , a j , b j )
This report considers the resistance distance as a recently proposed new ## Ε½ . intrinsic metric on molecular graphs, and in particular, the sum R over resistance distances between all pairs of vertices is considered as a graph invariant. It has been vertices and K denotes a complete graph contai
