## For any graph G we define the eccentric graph G e on the same set of vertices, by joining two vertices in G e if and only if one of the vertices has maximum possible distance from the other. The following results are given in this paper: (1) A few general properties of eccentric graphs. (2) A

โฆ Synopsis
The eccentricity e(v) of a vertex v in a connected graph G is the distance between v and a vertex farthest from v.
The eccentricity e(G) of G is the minimum integer k such that every vertex of G with eccentricity at least k is an eccentric vertex. A graph G is an eccentric graph if every vertex of G is an eccentric vertex or, equivalently, if the radius of G equals e(G). It is shown that for every pair a, c of positive integers satisfying a ี c ี 2a there exists an eccentric graph G with rad G ฯญ a and diam G ฯญ c. Moreover, for every connected graph G, there exists a connected graph H containing G as an induced subgraph such that V(G) is the set of eccentric vertices of H if and only if every vertex of G has eccentricity 1 or no vertex of G has eccentricity 1. Similar characterizations are presented for graphs that are the center or periphery of some eccentric graph.

For a vertex v and a (k ฯช 1)-element subset P of vertices of a graph, one can define the distance from v to P in various ways, including the minimum, average, and maximum distance from v to P. Associated with each of these distances, one can define the k-eccentricity of the vertex v as the maximum d
