Abstract

A distance-biregular graph is a finite, undirected bipartite graph where any two vertices in the same part of the bipartition have the same intersection array. In this thesis we find necessary conditions for a pair of arrays to correspond to a distance-biregular graph and use these to construct an algorithm for generating all pairs of feasible arrays corresponding to possible graphs of girth four and smallest valency
\(b_0\)\(' < 20\). The feasible arrays with \(b_0\)\(' < 10\) are analysed in Chapters 5 and 6; those with \(10 \leq b_0\)\(' < 20\) are listed in Appendix II. Our results raised a number of interesting questions which are listed at the end of Appendix II.
