For a distance-regular graph with valency k, second largest eigenvalue r and diameter D, it is known that r ≥ $min\{\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2},\;a_3\}$ if D = 3 and r ≥ $\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2}$ if D ≥ 4, where λ = a₁. This result can be generalized to the class of edge-regular graphs. For an edge-regular graph with parameters (v, k, λ) and diameter D ≥ 4, we compare $\frac{{\lambda}+\sqrt{{\lambda}^2+4k}}{2}$ with the local valency λ to find a relationship between the second largest eigenvalue and the local valency. For an edge-regular graph with diameter 3, we look at the number $\frac{{\lambda}-\bar{\mu}+\sqrt{({\lambda}-\bar{\mu})^2+4(k-\bar{\mu})}}{2}$, where $\bar{\mu}=\frac{k(k-1-{\lambda})}{v-k-1}$, and compare this number with the local valency λ to give a relationship between the second largest eigenvalue and the local valency. Also, we apply these relationships to distance-regular graphs.

As a continuation of computing the zeta function of a regular covering graph by Mizuno and Sato in [9], we derive in this paper computational formulae for the zeta functions of a graph bundle and of any (regular or irregular) covering of a graph. If the voltages to derive them lie in an abelian or dihedral group and its fibre is a regular graph, those formulae can be simplified. As a by-product, the zeta function of the cartesian product of a graph and a regular graph is obtained. The same work is also done for a discrete torus and for a discrete Klein bottle.

We present an upper bound on the Cheeger constant of a distance-regular graph. Recently, the authors found an upper bound on the Cheeger constant of distance-regular graph under a certain restriction in their previous work. Our new bound in the current paper is much better than the previous bound, and it is a general bound with no restriction. We point out that our bound is explicitly computable by using the valencies and the intersection matrix of a distance-regular graph. As a major tool, we use the discrete Green's function, which is defined as the inverse of ${\beta}$-Laplacian for some positive real number ${\beta}$. We present some examples of distance-regular graphs, where we compute our upper bound on their Cheeger constants.

In this study, graph product rules are applied to the dynamic analysis of regular skeletal structures. Graph product rules have recently been utilized in structural mechanics as a powerful tool for eigensolution of symmetric and regular skeletal structures. A structure is called regular if its model is a graph product. In the first part of this paper, the formulation of time history dynamic analysis of regular structures under seismic excitation is derived using graph product rules. This formulation can generally be utilized for efficient linear elastic dynamic analysis using vibration modes. The second part comprises of random vibration analysis of regular skeletal structures via canonical forms and closed-form eigensolution of matrices containing special patterns for symmetric structures. In this part, the formulations are developed for dynamic analysis of structures subjected to random seismic excitation in frequency domain. In all the proposed methods, eigensolution of the problems is achieved with less computational effort due to incorporating graph product rules and canonical forms for symmetric and cyclically symmetric structures.

Let G be a covering graph of G. We show that the line graph of G covers the line graph of G. Moreover, if the first covering is regular, then the line-graph covering is regular.

The rank over a finite field of the adjacency matrix of a directed strongly regular graph is studied, with some applications to the construction of linear codes. Three techniques are used: code orthogonality, adjacency matrix determinant, and adjacency matrix spectrum.

We study perfect 2-colorings of regular graphs. In particular, we consider the 4-regular case. We obtain a characterization of perfect 2-colorings of toroidal grids.

The symbol C($m_1^{n_1}m_2^{n_2}{\cdots}m_s^{n_s}$) denotes a 2-regular graph consisting of $n_i$ cycles of length $m_i,\;i=1,\;2,\;{\cdots},\;s$. In this paper, we give some construction methods of cyclic($K_v$, G)-designs, and prove that there exists a cyclic($K_v$, G)-design when $G=C((4m_1)^{n_1}(4m_2)^{n_2}{\cdots}(4m_s)^{n_s}\;and\;v{\equiv}1(mod\;2|G|)$.

In this paper, we investigate the number of ones in rows of Pascal's Rectangle. Using these results, we determine the existence of regular bipartite Steinhaus graphs. Also, we give an upper bound for the minimum degree of bipartite Steinhaus graphs.

Recently, interval-valued fuzzy graph is a growing research topic as it is the generalization of fuzzy graphs. The interval-valued fuzzy graphs are more flexible and compatible than fuzzy graphs due to the fact that they allowed the degree of membership of a vertex to an edge to be represented by interval values in [0.1] rather than the crisp values between 0 and 1. In this paper, we introduce the concepts of regular and totally regular interval-valued fuzzy graphs and discusses some properties of the ${\mu}$-complement of interval-valued fuzzy graph. Self ${\mu}$-complementary interval-valued fuzzy graphs and self-weak ${\mu}$-complementary interval-valued fuzzy graphs are defined and a necessary condition for an interval valued fuzzy graph to be self ${\mu}$-complementary is discussed. We define busy vertices and free vertices in interval valued fuzzy graph and study their image under an isomorphism.
