We say that a regular graph G of order n and degree r ? 1 (which is not the complete graph) is strongly regular if there exist non-negative integers ? and ? such that |Si ? Sj | = ? for any two adjacent vertices i and j, and |Si ? Sj | = ? for any two distinct non-adjacent vertices i and j, where Sk denotes the neighborhood of the vertex k. Let ?1 = r, ?2 and ?3 be the distinct eigenvalues of a connected strongly regular graph. Let m1 = 1, m2 and m3 denote the multiplicity of r, ?2 and ?3, respectively. We here describe the parameters n, r, ? and ? for strongly regular graphs with m2 = qm3 and m3 = qm2 for q = 3/2, 4/3, 5/2, 5/3, 5/4, 6/5.

In this paper we show how the star complement technique can be used to reprove the result of Wilbrink and Brouwer that the strongly regular graph with parameters (57, 14, 1, 4) does not exist. .

We determine new upper bounds for the clique numbers of strongly regular graphs in terms of their parameters. These bounds improve on the Delsarte bound for infinitely many feasible parameter tuples for strongly regular graphs, including infinitely many parameter tuples that correspond to Paley graphs.

For any 2-distance set in the n-dimensional binary Hamming space , let be the graph with as the vertex set and with two vertices adjacent if and only if the distance between them is the smaller of the two nonzero distances in . The binary spherical representation number of a graph , or bsr(), is the least n such that is isomorphic to , where is a 2-distance set lying on a sphere in . It is shown that if is a connected regular graph, then bsr, where b is the order of and m is the multiplicity of the least eigenvalue of , and the case of equality is characterized. In particular, if is a connected strongly regular graph, then bsr if and only if is the block graph of a quasisymmetric 2-design. It is also shown that if a connected regular graph is cospectral with a line graph and has the same binary spherical representation number as this line graph, then it is a line graph.

Several concepts in discrete mathematics such as block designs, Latin squares, Hadamard matrices, tactical configurations, errorcorrecting codes, geometric configurations, finite groups, and graphs are by no means independent. Combinations of these notions may serve the development of any one of them, and sometimes reveal hidden interrelations. In the present paper a central role in this respect is played by the notion of strongly regular graph, the definition of which is recalled below.In § 2, a fibre-type construction for graphs is given which, applied to block designs withλ= 1 and Hadamard matrices, yields strongly regular graphs. The method, although still limited in its applications, may serve further developments. In § 3 we deal with block designs, first considered by Shrikhande[22],in which the number of points in the intersection of any pair of blocks attains only two values.

A graph is $n$-e.c.$\,$ ($n$-existentially closed) if for every pair of subsets $U$, $W$ of the vertex set $V$ of the graph such that $U\cap W=\emptyset$ and $|U|+|W|=n$, there is a vertex $v\in V-(U\cup W)$ such that all edges between $v$ and $U$ are present and no edges between $v$ and $W$ are present. A graph is strongly regular if it is a regular graph such that the number of vertices mutually adjacent to a pair of vertices $v_1,v_2\in V$ depends only on whether or not $\{v_1,v_2\}$ is an edge in the graph. The only strongly regular graphs that are known to be $n$-e.c. for large $n$ are the Paley graphs. Recently D. G. Fon-Der-Flaass has found prolific constructions of strongly regular graphs using affine designs. He notes that some of these constructions were also studied by Wallis. By taking the affine designs to be Hadamard designs obtained from Paley tournaments, we use probabilistic methods to show that many non-isomorphic strongly regular $n$-e.c. graphs of order $(q+1)^2$ exist whenever $q\geq 16 n^2 2^{2n}$ is a prime power such that $q\equiv 3\!\!\!\pmod{4}$.

A graph Γ with diameter d is strongly distance-regular if Γ is distance-regular and its distance-d graph Γd is strongly regular. Some known examples of such graphs are the connected strongly regular graphs, with distance-d graph Γd = Γ (the complement of Γ), and the antipodal distance-regular graphs. Here we study some spectral conditions for a (regular or distance-regular) graph to be strongly distance-regular. In particular, for the case d = 3 the following characterization is proved. A regular (connected) graph Γ, with distinct eigenvalues λ0 > λ1 > λ2 > λ3, is strongly distance-regular if and only if λ2 = −1, and Γ3 is k-regular with degree k satisfying an expression which depends only on the order and the different eigenvalues of Γ.
