Abstract

The eccentricity \(e(u)\) of a vertex \(u\) is the maximum distance of \(u\) to any other vertex of \(G\).The distance degree sequence (dds) of a vertex \(u\) in a graph \(G=(V, E)\) is a list of the number of vertices at distance \(1,2, \ldots\), \(e(u)\) in that order, where \(e(u)\) denotes the eccentricity of \(u\) in \(G\). Thus the sequence \(\left(d_{i_0}, d_{i_1}, d_{i_2}, \ldots, d_{i_j}, \ldots\right)\) is the dds of the vertex \(v_i\) in \(G\) where \(d_{i_j}\) denotes number of vertices at distance \(j\) from \(v_i\). A graph is distance degree regular (DDR) graph if all vertices have the same dds. A graph is distance degree injective (DDI) graph if no two vertices have the same dds.

In this paper, we consider the construction of a DDR graph having any given graph \(G\) as its induced subgraph. Also we consider construction of some special class of DDI graphs.

Keywords:

Distance degree sequence, Distance degree regular (DDR) graphs, Almost DDR graphs, Distance degree injective(DDI) graphs
