Distance-regular graphs admitting a perfect $1$-code

Abstract

In this paper, we study the problem that which of distance-regular graphs admit a perfect $1$-code. Among other results, we characterize distance-regular line graphs which admit a perfect $1$-code. Moreover, we characterize all known distance-regular graphs with small valency at most $4$, the distance-regular graphs with known putative intersection arrays for valency $5$, and all distance-regular graphs with girth $3$ and valency $6$ or $7$ which admit a perfect $1$-code.
