- Description: We consider bipartite graphs of degree A<2, diameter D = 3, and defect 2 (having 2 vertices less than the bipartite Moore bound). Such graphs are called bipartite (â–³,3, -2) -graphs. We prove the uniqueness of the known bipartite (3, 3, -2) -graph and bipartite (4, 3, -2)-graph. We also prove several necessary conditions for the existence of bipartite (â–³,3, -2) - graphs. The most general of these conditions is that either â–³ or â–³-2 must be a perfect square. Furthermore, in some cases for which the condition holds, in particular, when â–³ = 6 and â–³ = 9, we prove the non-existence of the corresponding bipartite (â–³,3,-2)-graphs, thus establishing that there are no bipartite (â–³,3, -2)-graphs, for 5

- Description: It is known that the Moore bipartite bound provides an upper bound on the order of a connected bipartite graph. In this paper we deal with bipartite graphs of maximum degree

- Description: This paper is concerned with the linkedness of Cartesian products of complete graphs. A graph with at least 2k vertices is k-linked if, for every set of 2k distinct vertices organised in arbitrary k pairs of vertices, there are k vertex-disjoint paths joining the vertices in the pairs. We show that the Cartesian product Kd1+1 × Kd2+1 of complete graphs Kd1+1 and Kd2+1 is
