Abstract:
Distance regular graphs $\Gamma$ of
diameter 3 for which the graphs $\Gamma_2$ and $\Gamma_3$ are
strongly regular, studied by M.S. Nirova. For $Q$-polynomial graphs
with intersection arrays $\{69,56,10; 1,14,60\}$ and $\{119,100,15;
1, 20,105\}$ the graph $\Gamma_3$ is strongly regular and
does not contain triangles. Automorphisms of graphs with these
intersection arrays were found by A.A. Makhnev, M.S. Nirova and M.M.
Isakova, A.A. Makhnev, respectively. The graph $\Gamma$ with the
intersection array $\{74,54,15; 1,9,60\} $ also is $Q $-polynomial,
and $\Gamma_3$ is a strongly regular graph with parameters
$(630,111,12,21)$. It is proved in the paper that graphs with
intersection arrays $\{69,56,10;1,14,60\}$, $\{74,54,15; 1,9,60\}$
and $\{119,100,15; 1,20, 105\} $ do not exist.
