## Abstract We prove that the minimum number of edges in a vertexβdiameterβ2βcritical graph on __n__ββ₯β23 vertices is (5__n__βββ17)/2 if __n__ is odd, and is (5__n__/2)βββ7 if __n__ is even. Β© 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory

## Abstract Let __G__ be connected simple graph with diameter __d__(__G__). __G__ is said __v__^+^βcritical if __d__(__G__β__v__) is greater than __d__(__G__) for every vertex __v__ of __G__. Let Dβ² = max {__d__(__G__β__v__) : __v__ β __V__(__G__)}. Boals et al. [Congressus Numerantium 72 (1990), 1
A graph is vertex-critical if deleting any vertex increases its diameter. We construct, for each & 5 except &=6, a vertex-critical graph of diameter two on & vertices with at least , where c 2 is some constant. We also construct, for each & 5 except &=6, a vertex-critical graph of diameter two on &
## 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
