摘要
In this paper we investigate some structural characterizations of geodetic graphs and prove that if G is a central geodetic block on p vertices with diameter d greater than or equal to 3, and each vertex belongs to an induced cycle C2d+1, then the number q of edges equals p or q less than or equal to 1/6 p[p - 1/2(5d + 1) + 8]. Therefore the upper bounds of [3] have been considerably improved. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
