\prerequisite{GB\_\,RAMAN}
@* Introduction. This demonstration program uses graphs
constructed by the |raman| procedure in the {\sc GB\_\,RAMAN} module to produce
an interactive program called \.{girth}, which computes the girth and
diameter of a class of Ramanujan graphs.

The girth of a graph is the length of its shortest cycle; the diameter
is the maximum length of a shortest path between two vertices.
A Ramanujan graph is a connected, undirected graph in which every vertex
@^Ramanujan graphs@>
has degree~|p+1|, with the property that every eigenvalue of its adjacency
matrix is either $\pm(p+1)$ or has absolute value $\le2\sqrt{\mathstrut p}$.

Exact values for the girth are of interest because the bipartite graphs
produced by |raman| apparently have larger girth than any other known
family of regular graphs, even if we consider graphs whose existence
is known only by nonconstructive methods, except for the cubic ``sextet''
graphs of Biggs, Hoare, and Weiss [{\sl Combinatorica\/ \bf3} (1983),
@^Biggs, Norman L.@>
@^Hoare, M. J.@>
@^Weiss, Alfred@>
153--165; {\bf4} (1984), 241--245].

Exact values for the diameter are of interest because the diameter of
any Ramanujan graph is at most twice the minimum possible diameter
of any regular graph.

The program will prompt you for two numbers, |p| and |q|. These should
be distinct prime numbers, not too large, with |q>2|.  A graph is
constructed in which each vertex has degree~|p+1|. The number of
vertices is $(q^3-q)/2$ if |p| is a quadratic residue modulo~|q|, or
$q^3-q$ if |p| is not a quadratic residue. In the latter case, the
graph is bipartite and it is known to have rather large girth.

If |p=2|, the value of |q| is further restricted to be of the form
$104k+(1,3,9,17,25,27,35,43,49,\allowbreak51,75,81)$. This means that the only
feasible values of |q| to go with |p=2| are probably 3, 17, and 43;
the next case, |q=107|, would generate a bipartite graph with
1,224,936 vertices and 3,674,808 arcs, thus requiring approximately
113 megabytes of memory (not to mention a nontrivial amount of
computer time). If you want to compute the girth and diameter
of Ramanujan graphs for large |p| and/or~|q|, much better methods are
available based on number theory; the present program is merely a
demonstration of how to interface with the output of |raman|.
Incidentally, the graph for |p=2| and |q=43| turns
out to have 79464 vertices, girth 20, and diameter~22.

The program will examine the graph and compute its girth and its diameter,
then will prompt you for another choice of |p| and |q|.

@* Bounds. The theory of Ramanujan graphs allows us to predict the
girth and diameter to within a factor of 2~or~so.

In the first place, we can easily derive an upper bound on the girth
and a lower bound on the diameter, valid for any $n$-vertex regular graph
of degree~$p+1$. Such a graph has at most $(p+1)p^{k-1}$ points at
distance~$k$ from any given vertex; this implies a lower bound
on the diameter~$d$:
$$1+(p+1)+(p+1)p+(p+1)p^2+\cdots+(p+1)p^{d-1}\;\ge\;n.$$
Similarly, if the girth $g$ is odd, say $g=2k+1$, the points at
distance~$\le k$ from any vertex must be distinct, so we have
$$1+(p+1)+(p+1)p+(p+1)p^2+\cdots+(p+1)p^{k-1}\;\le\;n;$$
and if $g=2k+2$, at least $p^k$ further points must exist at distance
$k+1$, because the $(p+1)p^k$ paths of length $k+1$ can end at
a particular vertex at most $p+1$ times. Thus
$$1+(p+1)+(p+1)p+(p+1)p^2+\cdots+(p+1)p^{k-1}+p^k\;\le\;n$$
when the girth is even.

In the following code we let $|pp|=p^{dl}$ and
$s=1+(p+1)+\cdots+(p+1)p^{dl}$.

@<Compute the ``trivial'' bounds |gu| and |dl| on girth and diameter@>=
s=p+2;@+dl=1;@+pp=p;@+gu=3;
while (s<n) {
  s+=pp;
  if (s<=n) gu++;
  dl++;
  pp*=p;
  s+=pp;
  if (s<=n) gu++;
}

@ When |p>2|, we can use the theory of integral quaternions to derive a lower
bound on the girth of the graphs produced by |raman|. A path of length~$g$
from a vertex to itself exists if and only if there is an integral
quaternion $\alpha=a_0+a_1i+a_2j+a_3k$ of norm $p^g$ such that
the $a$'s are not all multiples of~$p$, while
$a_1$, $a_2$, and $a_3$ are multiples of~$q$ and $a_0\not\=a_1\=a_2\=a_3$
(mod~2). This means we have integers $(a_0,a_1,a_2,a_3)$ with
$$a_0^2+a_1^2+a_2^2+a_3^2=p^{\,g},$$ satisfying the stated properties
mod~$q$ and mod~2.
If $a_1$, $a_2$, and $a_3$ are even, they cannot all be zero so
we must have $p^{\,g}\ge1+4q^2$; if they are odd, we must have
$p^{\,g}\ge4+3q^2$. (The latter is possible only when $g$ is odd and
$p\bmod4=3$.) Since $n$ is roughly proportional to~$q^3$, this means
$g$ must be at least about ${2\over3}\log_p n$. Thus $g$~isn't
too much less than the maximum girth possible in any regular graph,
which we have shown is at most about $2\log_p n$.

When the graph is bipartite we can, in fact, prove that $g$ is
approximately ${4\over3}\log_p n$. The bipartite case occurs if and
only if $p$ is not a quadratic residue modulo~|q|; hence the
number~$g$ in the previous paragraph must be even, say $g=2r$. Then
$p^{\,g}\bmod4=1$, and $a_0$ must be odd.  The congruence $a_0^2\=p^{2r}$
(mod~$q^2$) implies that $a_0\=\pm p^r$, because all numbers
relatively prime to $q^2$ are powers of a primitive root. We can
assume without loss of generality that $a_0=p^r-2mq^2$, where
$0<m<p^r/q^2$; it follows in particular that $p^r>q^2$.  Conversely,
if $p^r-q^2$ can be written as a sum of three squares
$b_1^2+b_2^2+b_3^2$, then
$p^{2r}=(p^r-2q^2)^2+(2b_1q)^2+(2b_2q)^2+(2b_3q)^2$ is a
representation of the required type. If $p^r-q^2$ is a positive
integer that cannot be represented as a sum of three squares, a
well-known theorem of Legendre tells us that $p^r-q^2=4^ts$, where
$s\=7$ (mod~8).  Since $p$ and $q$ are odd, we have $t\ge1$; hence
$p^r-2q^2$ is odd. If $p^r-2q^2$ is a positive odd integer, Legendre's
theorem tells us that we can write $2p^r-4q^2=b_1^2+b_2^2+b_3^2$;
hence $p^{2r}=(p^r-4q^2)^2+ (2b_1q)^2+(2b_2q)^2+(2b_3q)^2$. We
conclude that the girth is either $2\lceil\log_pq^2\rceil$ or
$2\lceil\log_p2q^2\rceil$. (This explicit calculation, which makes our
program for calculating the girth unnecessary or at best redundant in
the bipartite case, is due to G. A. Margulis and, independently, to
@^Margulis, Grigori{\u\i} Aleksandrovich@>
@^Biggs, Norman L.@>
@^Boshier, A. G.@>
Biggs and Boshier [{\sl Journal of Combinatorial Theory\/ \bf B49}
(1990), 190--194].)

A girth of 1 or 2 can occur, since these graphs might have self-loops
or multiple edges if |p| is sufficiently large.

@<Compute a lower bound |gl| on the girth@>=
if (bipartite) {@+long b=q*q;
  for (gl=1,pp=p;pp<=b;gl++,pp*=p) ; /* iterate until $p^{\,g}>q^2$ */
  gl+=gl;
}@+else {@+long b1=1+4*q*q, b2=4+3*q*q; /* bounds on $p^{\,g}$ */
  for (gl=1,pp=p;pp<b1;gl++,pp*=p) {
    if (pp>=b2 && (gl&1) && (p&2)) break;
  }
}

@ Upper bounds on the diameter of any Ramanujan graph can be derived
as shown in the paper by Lubotzky, Phillips, and Sarnak in
@^Lubotzky, Alexander@>
@^Phillips, Ralph Saul@>
@^Sarnak, Peter@>
{\sl Combinatorica \bf8} (1988), page~275. (However, a slight correction
to their proof is necessary---their parameter~$l$ should be~odd
when $x$ and~$y$ lie in different parts of a bipartite graph.)
Their argument demonstrates that $p^{(d-1)/2}<2n$ in the
nonbipartite case and $p^{(d-2)/2}<n$ in the bipartite case; therefore
we obtain the upper bound $d\le 2\log_p n+O(1)$, which is about twice the lower
bound that holds in an arbitrary regular graph.

@<Compute an upper bound |du| on the diameter@>=
{@+long nn=(bipartite? n: 2*n);
  for (du=0,pp=1; pp<nn; du+=2,pp*=p) ;
  @<Decrease |du| by 1, if $|pp|/|nn|\ge\sqrt p$@>;
  if (bipartite) du++;
}

@ Floating point arithmetic might not be accurate enough for the test
required in this section. We avoid it by using an all-integer method
analogous to Euclid's algorithm, based on the continued fraction for
$\sqrt p$ [{\sl Seminumerical Algorithms}, exercise 4.5.3--12]. In the
loop here we want to compare |nn/pp| to $(\sqrt p+a)/b$, where $\sqrt p+a
>b>0$ and $p-a^2$ is a multiple of~$b$.

@*Breadth-first search. The graphs produced by |raman| are symmetrical, in
the sense that there is an automorphism taking any vertex into any
other. Each vertex $V$ and each edge $P$ corresponds to a $2\times2$
matrix, and the path $P_1P_2\ldots P_k$ leading from vertex~$V$ to
vertex $VP_1P_2\ldots P_k$ has the same properties as the path leading
from vertex~$U$ to vertex $UP_1P_2\ldots P_k$. Therefore we can find
the girth and the diameter by starting at any vertex $v_0$.

We compute the number of points at distance $k$ from $v_0$ for
all $k$, by explicitly forming a linked list of all such points.
Utility field |link| is used for the links. The lists
terminate with a non-null |sentinel| value, so that we can also
use the condition |link==NULL| to tell if a vertex has been
encountered before. Another utility field, |dist|, contains the
distance from the starting point, and |back| points to a
vertex one step closer.
