Description
Let rho(G) denote the number of convex cycles of a simple graph G of order
n, size m, and girth 3 <= g <= n. It is proved that rho(G) <= (n/g)(m-n+1) and that
equality holds if and only if G is an even cycle or a Moore graph. The equality
also holds for a possible Moore graph of diameter 2 and degree 57 thus giving
a new characterization of Moore graphs.
