Regular $K_3$-irregular graphs

We address the problem proposed by Chartrand, Erdős and Oellermann (1988) about the existence of regular $K_3$-irregular graphs. We first establish bounds on the $K_3$-degrees of such graphs and use them to prove that there are no such graphs with regularities at most $7$. For the regularity $8$, we narrow down the bounds on the order of such graphs to six possible values. We then present an explicit example of a $9$-regular $K_3$-irregular graph. Finally, we discuss an evolutionary algorithm developed to discover such graphs. Using it, we have found such graphs for consecutive regularities from $9$ to $30$.

Regular $K_3$-regular graphs

We study graphs that are simultaneously regular with respect to the ordinary vertex degree and regular with respect to the triangle degree, that is, the number of triangles containing a given vertex. We call such graphs regular $K_3$-regular. We investigate the (non-)existence of regular $K_3$-regular graphs with prescribed parameters $(r_2,r_3)$, where $r_2$ is the vertex degree and $r_3$ is the triangle degree. General bounds relating vertex and edge triangle degrees are derived, and non-existence results are established for broad ranges of these parameters. Special attention is paid to Turán graphs, for which we establish uniqueness results for certain parameters. The paper concludes with a summary of admissible parameters and several open problems.

A note on the triameter of graphs

In this note, we give answers to three questions from the paper [A. Das, Triameter of graphs, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory, 41 (2021), 601--616]. Namely, we obtain a tight lower bound for the triameter of trees in terms of order and number of leaves. We show that in a connected block graph any triametral triple of vertices contains a diametral pair and that any diametral pair of vertices can be extended to a triametral triple. We also present several open problems concerning the interplay between triametral triples, diametral pairs and peripheral vertices in median and distance-hereditary graphs.
