Degree = 4, Diameter = 4; Order =104; Moore bound=161;
Nishant Bhakar (nishant.bhakar@gmail.com, Redmond, WA, USA; August 27, 2026) found three non-isomorphic graphs with 104 vertices and 208 edges. One of them with a high symmetry.
The construction is a Z_8-voltage graph lift of a 13-vertex base multigraph with loops and semi-edges, followed by a symmetry-breaking repair obtained through iterative experimentation with different approaches, with Claude Fable assisting with implementation and the analysis and summarization of the results..

Obtained by Michel de Messieres (michel@demessieres.com, October 5, 2026). The search programs were written and run by an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude) under the author's direction.
Lift of a voltage graph with two vertices over the semidirect product of cyclic groups Z9 (⋊23) Z38. Each vertex type has four neighbours of its own type and 3 of the other type. The automorphism group is the lifted group, with two orbits, so the graph is not vertex-transitive.
They were found by a computer search over such groups of order just above half the former entry , optimising the voltages by simulated annealing until every pair of vertices was within distance 4.

Incidence graph of the symplectic generalized quadrangle W(9) (820 points, 820 lines, 10-regular, diameter 4, girth 8), doubled: every vertex gets two copies and a base edge a-b carrying a voltage x in {0,1} joins (a,i) to (b,i+x). The voltages are chosen (by local search) so that for each of the 597,780 pairs of opposite vertices the 10 geodesics between them do not
all have the same voltage sum; both copies of the far vertex are then reached in 4 steps. The two copies of every line are joined to each other, which settles all pairs at base distance less than 4 and leaves each of the 1,640 point-copies one free slot. Those slots carry 164 twin vertices: for each of the 82 lines of a spread and each of the two sheets, a new vertex joined to the 10 point-copies adjacent to that copy of the line; the two twins of a spread line are adjacent. 3,280 + 164 = 3,444 vertices, 11-regular, diameter 4.

Graph constructed with the help of AI tools by Petrit Isufi (isufi.petrit@proton.me; Wuppertal, Germany. August 17, 2026).
After constructing Q7(T4) based on the published details (see below), as the graph is regular, no new vertices can be added without increasing the degrees. Edges are deleted and each deletion is accepted only after an exact re-check that the diameter is still 4, then new vertices are added one at a time by exact CP-SAT, each joined only to freed vertices, none joined to each other. After 215 deletions and 20 new vertices, the final graph has 3220 nodes and 17605 edges, maximum degree 11, and diameter 4, average degree 10.935, degree histogram [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 210, 3010] and avg. dist.: 3.662781.

Construction discovered by Ryosuke Mizuno (mizuno@aisystemresearch.com, September 25, 2026) through interaction with ChatGPT via its standard web interface. A simple 12-regular route-chart lift graph on V(C) × F43, where C is a 72-vertex simple 4-regular controller. The graph has 34,992 edges and diameter exactly 4. This uses the route-chart lift definition in [arXiv:2606.15860] with a different diameter certificate: nonsingular controllability matrices for selected length-4 walks, pencils of affine hyperplanes, and unions of affine planes establish the upper bound 4

Graph constructed with the help of AI tools by Petrit Isufi (isufi.petrit@proton.me; Wuppertal, Germany. August 17, 2026).
After constructing Q′8*X8 based on the published details (Delorme's q = 8 polarity quotient, star-multiplied with the X8 factor of Bermond-Delorme-Farhi) a graph with 4680 vertices, 27820 edges, degree distribution 520 x 11 + 4160 x 12, maximum degree 12, diameter 4, is obtained. Then 25 new vertices were added (with no edges between the new vertices; every new edge is incident with a vertex of degree 11 in the former graph) obtaining a new graph with 4705 vertices, 28118 edges, maximum degree 12, and diameter 4.

Q9(T4)+. Graph constructed with the help of AI tools by Petrit Isufi(isufi.petrit@proton.me; Wuppertal, Germany. August 17, 2026).
After constructing Q9(T4) based on the published details (see below), as the graph is regular, no new vertices can be added without increasing the degrees. Edges are deleted and each deletion is accepted only after an exact re-check that the diameter is still 4, then new vertices are added one at a time by exact CP-SAT, each joined only to freed vertices, none joined to each other. After 290 deletions and 27 new vertices, the final graph has 6587 nodes and 42701 edges, maximum degree 13, and diameter 4, average degree 12.965 , degree histogram [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 229, 6358] and avg. dist.: 3.715966.

Degree = 14, Diameter = 4; Order =8303; Moore bound= 33321;
Obtained by Michel de Messieres (michel@demessieres.com, October 3, 2026). The search programs were written and run by an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude) under the author's direction.
Rajiv's graph has 357 vertices with unused degree (450 unused slots). We kept ALL 57,791 of its edges and added 15 new vertices of degree 14 (190 edges to original vertices, 10 between new vertices) plus 129 new edges between original vertices in their unused slots. This was done in two steps: first 14 new vertices (8302), then 1 more (8303), each time placing the added edges by annealing until every pair of vertices was within distance 4. Vertices 0--8287 are Rajiv's vertices with his original numbering; 8288?8302 are the new ones.

Built on R. Rajiv's (15,4) construction (Zenodo 10.5281/zenodo.23052995): four copies of the incidence graph of the symplectic generalized quadrangle W(11), 2,928 vertices each, joined by index-aligned matchings, with the point-point matchings cut at a partial ovoid of W(11) and the line-line matchings at a line spread. All of his parameters are used unchanged except the point cut set: in place of a 68-point partial ovoid I use one with 72 points, which leaves more free slots. 72 new vertices are then attached, each taking one cut point together with spread lines in two of the blocks -- 9 of them with three lines per block, joined in a 9-cycle, and 63 with two lines per block and a 4-regular graph among themselves -- and one further vertex uses no cut point at all. 4 x 2,928 + 73 = 11,785 vertices, maximum degree 15, diameter 4. The 72 points of the partial ovoid are listed here: 1043 1093 1284 300 1035 905 837 736 957 1438 938 1157 417 1274 1193 149 1352 154 1414 292 1263 742 104 1132 125 1031 1219 236 1156 1330 241 536 733 929 985 1070 925 279 96 97 757 1023 160 766 750 821 523 1442 1019 718 1096 63 105 1228 225 1173 571 939 1138 1452 962 135 443 312 446 1029 433 801 252 201 695 857
