✦ Synopsis
A graph is pseudo-median if for every triple u, v, w of vertices there exists either a unique vertex between each pair of them (if their mutual distances sum up to an even number) or a unique triangle whose edges lie between the three pairs of u, v, w, respectively (if the distance sum is odd). We show that a finite pseudo-median graph is regular if and only if it is the Cartesian product of a hypercube with either a complete graph or a hyperoctahedron. Every self-map of a pseudo-median graph that preserves or collapses edges has an invariant regular pseudo-median subgraph. Furthermore, the set of all vertices minimizing the total distance to the vertices of a pseudo-median graph induces a regular pseudo-median subgraph.

Let denote a distance-regular graph with diameter D 3, valency k, and intersection numbers a i , b i , c i . By a pseudo-cosine sequence of we mean a sequence of real numbers σ 0 , σ 1 , . . . , σ D such that σ 0 = 1 and c i σ i-1 + a i σ i + b i σ i+1 = kσ 1 σ i for 0 i D -1. Let σ 0 , σ 1 , . . .
The local adjacency polynomials can be thought of as a generalization, for all graphs, of (the sums of ) the distance polynomials of distance-regular graphs. The term ``local'' here means that we ``see'' the graph from a given vertex, and it is the price we must pay for speaking of a kind of distanc
A median graph is called compact if it does not contain an isometric ray. This property is shown to be equivalent to the finite intersection property for convex sets. We show that a compact median graph contains a finite cube that is fixed by all of its automorphisms, and that each family of commuti
Given r 3 3 and 1 s A s r, we determine all values of k for which every r-regular graph with edge-connectivity A has a k-factor. Some of the earliest results in graph theory are due to Petersen [8] and concern factors in graphs. Among others, Petersen proved that a regular graph of even degree has a
