Abstract:Improving a recent result of Fundikwa, Mazorodze, and Mukwembi, we show that d ≤ (2n−3)/5 for every connected C 4 -free graph of order n, diameter d, and edge-connectivity at least 3, which is best possible up to a small additive constant. For edge-connectivity at least 4, we improve this to d ≤ (n − 3)/3. Furthermore, adapting a construction due to Erdős, Pach, Pollack, and Tuza, for an odd prime power q at least 7, and every positive integer k, we show the existence of a connected C 4 -free graph of order n … Show more
