On the permutation cycle structures for almost Moore digraphs of degrees 4 and 5

Almost Moore digraphs of degree d and diameter k, for short (d, k)-digraphs, appear in the degree/diameter problem as a class of extremal directed graphs. Their order is one less than the unattainable Moore bound M(d, k) = 1 + d + · · · + d k . So far, their existence has only been shown for k = 2....

Sumario:Almost Moore digraphs of degree d and diameter k, for short (d, k)-digraphs, appear in the degree/diameter problem as a class of extremal directed graphs. Their order is one less than the unattainable Moore bound M(d, k) = 1 + d + · · · + d k . So far, their existence has only been shown for k = 2. Their nonexistence has been proven for k = 3, 4 and for d = 2, 3, when k ≥ 3. In this paper, we study the possible cycle structures of the permutation of repeats for the (4, k) and (5, k)-digraphs.
