In this paper we obtain $(q+3)$--regular graphs of girth $5$ with fewer vertices than previously known ones for $q=13,17,19$ and for any prime $q \ge 23$ performing operations of reductions and amalgams on the Levi graph $B_q$ of an elliptic semiplane of type $C$. We also obtain a $13$--regular graph of girth $5$ on $236$ vertices from $B_{11}$ using the same technique.

Abstract

In this paper we obtain $(q+3)$--regular graphs of girth $5$ with fewer vertices than previously known ones for $q=13,17,19$ and for any prime $q \ge 23$ performing operations of reductions and amalgams on the Levi graph $B_q$ of an elliptic semiplane of type $C$. We also obtain a $13$--regular graph of girth $5$ on $236$ vertices from $B_{11}$ using the same technique.
