The distance energy of a graph G is a recently developed energy-type invariant, defined as the absolute deviation of the eigenvalues of the distance matrix of G. It is a useful molecular descriptor in QSPR modelling, as demonstrated by Consonni and Todeschini in [V. Consonni, R. Todeschini, New spec

In [1] N.L. Biggs mentions two parameter sets for distance regular graphs that are antipodal covers of a complete graph, for which existence of a corresponding graph was unknown. Here we settle both cases by proving that one does not exist, while there are exactly two nonisomorphic solutions to the
Let ⌫ be a distance-regular graph with l (1 , a 1 , b 1 ) ϭ 1 and c s ϩ 1 ϭ 1 for some positive integer s . We show the existence of a certain distance-regular graph of diameter s , containing given two vertices at distance s , as a subgraph in ⌫ .
Let ⌫ be a distance-regular graph with a 1 Ͼ 0 , r ϭ max ͕ j 3 ( c j , a j , b j ) ϭ ( c 1 , a 1 , b 1 ) ͖ у 2 and a i ϭ a 1 c i , for 1 р i р 2 r . Take any u and in ⌫ at distance r ϩ 1 . We show that there exists a collinearity graph of a generalized 2( r ϩ 1)-gon of order ( a 1 ϩ 1 , c r ϩ 1 Ϫ 1)
