We show that a distance-regular graph of valency k Ͼ 2 is antipodal , if b 2 ϭ 1 . This answers Problem (i) on p . 182 of Brouwer , Cohen and Neumaier [4] .

Let 1 be a distance-regular graph of diameter d and valency k>2. If b t =1 and 2t d, then 1 is an antipodal double-cover. Consequently, if f >2 is the multiplicity of an eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of 1 and if 1 is not an antipodal doublecover then d 2f&3. This result is an improvement of God

Let Γ be a regular graph with n vertices, diameter D, and d + 1 In a previous paper, the authors showed that if P (λ) > n -1, then D ≤ d -1, where P is the polynomial of degree d-1 which takes alternating values ±1 at λ 1 , . . . , λ d . The graphs satisfying P (λ) = n -1, called boundary graphs, h

Let G be a non-bipartite strongly regular graph on n vertices of valency k. We prove that if G has a distance-regular antipodal cover of diameter 4, then k ≤ 2(n + 1)/5 , unless G is the complement of triangular graph T (7), the folded Johnson graph J (8, 4) or the folded halved 8-cube. However, for

An antipodal distance-regular graph of diameter four or five is a covering graph of a connected strongly regular graph. We give existence conditions for these graphs and show for some types of strongly regular graphs that no nontrivial covers exist.

Bannai and Ito conjectured in a 1987 paper that there are finitely many distance-regular graphs with fixed degree that is greater than two. In a series of papers they showed that their conjecture held for distance-regular graphs with degrees 3 or 4. In this paper we prove that the Bannai-Ito conject
