In this article we have derived the minimum order of an odd regular graph such that the graph has no matching. We have observed that how it is different from the case of even regular graphs. We have checked the consistency of the derived result with Petersens theorem.

Aldous and Fill conjectured that the maximum relaxation time for the random walk on a connected regular graph with $n$ vertices is $(1+o(1)) frac{3n^2}{2pi^2}$. This conjecture can be rephrased in terms of the spectral gap as follows: the spectral gap (algebraic connectivity) of a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices is at least $(1+o(1))frac{2kpi^2}{3n^2}$, and the bound is attained for at least one value of $k$. Based upon previous work of Brand, Guiduli, and Imrich, we prove this conjecture for cubic graphs. We also investigate the structure of quartic (i.e. 4-regular) graphs with the minimum spectral gap among all connected quartic graphs. We show that they must have a path-like structure built from specific blocks.
We study $2k$-factors in $(2r+1)$-regular graphs. Hanson, Loten, and Toft proved that every $(2r+1)$-regular graph with at most $2r$ cut-edges has a $2$-factor. We generalize their result by proving for $kle(2r+1)/3$ that every $(2r+1)$-regular graph with at most $2r-3(k-1)$ cut-edges has a $2k$-factor. Both the restriction on $k$ and the restriction on the number of cut-edges are sharp. We characterize the graphs that have exactly $2r-3(k-1)+1$ cut-edges but no $2k$-factor. For $k>(2r+1)/3$, there are graphs without cut-edges that have no $2k$-factor, as studied by Bollobas, Saito, and Wormald.
It is well known that spectral Tur{a}n type problem is one of the most classical {problems} in graph theory. In this paper, we consider the spectral Tur{a}n type problem. Let $G$ be a graph and let $mathcal{G}$ be a set of graphs, we say $G$ is textit{$mathcal{G}$-free} if $G$ does not contain any element of $mathcal{G}$ as a subgraph. Denote by $lambda_1$ and $lambda_2$ the largest and the second largest eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix $A(G)$ of $G,$ respectively. In this paper we focus on the characterization of graphs without short odd cycles according to the adjacency eigenvalues of the graphs. Firstly, an upper bound on $lambda_1^{2k}+lambda_2^{2k}$ of $n$-vertex ${C_3,C_5,ldots,C_{2k+1}}$-free graphs is established, where $k$ is a positive integer. All the corresponding extremal graphs are identified. Secondly, a sufficient condition for non-bipartite graphs containing an odd cycle of length at most $2k+1$ in terms of its spectral radius is given. At last, we characterize the unique graph having the maximum spectral radius among the set of $n$-vertex non-bipartite graphs with odd girth at least $2k+3,$ which solves an open problem proposed by Lin, Ning and Wu [Eigenvalues and triangles in graphs, Combin. Probab. Comput. 30 (2) (2021) 258-270].
Let $X$ be a connected Cayley graph on an abelian group of odd order, such that no two distinct vertices of $X$ have exactly the same neighbours. We show that the direct product $X times K_2$ (also called the canonical double cover of $X$) has only the obvious automorphisms (namely, the ones that come from automorphisms of its factors $X$ and $K_2$). This means that $X$ is stable. The proof is short and elementary. The theory of direct products implies that $K_2$ can be replaced with members of a much more general family of connected graphs.
It is shown that each subgroup of odd index in an alternating group of degree at least 10 has all insoluble composition factors to be alternating. A classification is then given of 2-arc-transitive graphs of odd order admitting an alternating group or a symmetric group. This is the second of a series of papers aiming towards a classification of 2-arc-transitive graphs of odd order.
