COMMENTS
| Number of nonisomorphic generalized Petersen graphs P(n,k) with girth 4 on 2n vertices for 1<=k<=Floor[(n-1)/2].
The generalized Petersen graph P(n,k) is a graph with vertex set $V(P(n,k)) = \{u_0,u_1,\dots,u_{n-1},v_0,v_1,\dots,v_{n-1}\}$ and edge set $E(P(n,k)) = \{u_i u_{i+1}, u_i v_i, v_i v_{i+k} : i=0,\dots,n-1\},$ where the subscripts are to be read modulo $n$.
Also the number of nonisomorphic bipartite generalized Petersen graphs P(2n,k) with girth 4 on 4n vertices for 1<=k<n, n >= 2. A generalized Petersen graph P(n,k) is bipartite if and only if n is even and k is odd; it has girth 4 if and only if n = 4k or k=1.
Comment from Tomaz Pisanski, Mar 08 2008: (Start) The fact that the two interpretations give the same numerical values is a coincidence.
Let f(n) be the number of generalized Petersen graphs P(n,k), n = 4,5,... of girth 4. Let g(n) be the number of bipartite generalized Petersen graphs P(2n,k), n = 2,3,4,... of girth 4.
The sequences may be computed as follows: f(t) = if t = 4 then 1 else if 4|t then 2 else 1 and g(s) = if s = 2 then else if mod(s,4) = 2 then 2 else 1. It follows that f(n+2) = g(n).
The exception f(4) = g(2) = 1 does count the same object, namely, P(4,1) but for all other cases f(n+2) counts different objects that g(n). (End)
