## Abstract For any __d__β©Ύ5 and __k__β©Ύ3 we construct a family of Cayley graphs of degree __d__, diameter __k__, and order at least __k__((__d__β3)/3)^__k__^. By comparison with other available results in this area we show that our family gives the largest currently known Cayley graphs for a wide ra

Let vt(d, 2) be the largest order of a vertex-transitive graph of degree d and diameter 2. It is known that vt(d, 2)=d 2 +1 for d=1, 2, 3, and 7; for the remaining values of d we have vt(d, 2) d 2 &1. The only known general lower bound on vt(d, 2), valid for all d, seems to be vt(d, 2) w(d+2)Γ2x W(d
It is known that for each d there exists a graph of diameter two and maximum degree d which has at least (d/2) (d + 2)/2 vertices. In contrast with this, we prove that for every surface S there is a constant d S such that each graph of diameter two and maximum degree d β₯ d S , which is embeddable in
## Abstract We investigate a family of graphs relevant to the problem of finding large regular graphs with specified degree and diameter. Our family contains the largest known graphs for degree/diameter pairs (3, 7), (3, 8), (4, 4), (5, 3), (5, 5), (6, 3), (6, 4), (7, 3), (14, 3), and (16, 2). We a
This note can be treated a s a supplement to a paper written by Bollobas which was devoted to the vertices of a given degree in a random graph. We determine some values of the edge probability p for which the number of vertices of a given degree of a random graph G E ?An, p) asymptotically has a nor
## Abstract The odd girth of a graph __G__ is the length of a shortest odd cycle in __G__. Let __d__(__n, g__) denote the largest __k__ such that there exists a __k__βregular graph of order __n__ and odd girth __g__. It is shown that __d____n, g__ β₯ 2|__n__/__g__β₯ if __n__ β₯ 2__g__.
