Graphs missing or exceeding the Moore bound by e are called graphs with defect or excess e respectively. While Moore graphs graphs with e 0 and graphs with defect or excess 1 have been characterized almost completely graphs with defect or excess 2 represent a wide unexplored area. Graphs with defect excess 2 satisfy the equation Gd k A Jn B Gd k A Jn B where A denotes the adjacency matrix of the graph in question n its order Jn the n X n matrix whose entries are all 1 s B the adjacency matrix of a union of vertex-disjoint cycles and Gd k x a polynomial with integer coefficients such that the matrix Gd k A gives the number of paths of length at most k joining each pair of vertices in the graph. In particular if B is the adjacency matrix of a cycle of order n we call the corresponding graphs graphs with cyclic defect or excess these graphs are the subject of our attention in this paper. We prove the non-existence of infinitely many such graphs. As the highlight of the paper we provide the asymptotic upper bound of O 64d3 2 for the number of graphs of odd degree d 3 and cyclic defect or excess. This bound is in fact quite generous and as a way of illustration we show the non-existence of some families of graphs of odd degree d 3 and cyclic defect or excess. Actually we conjecture that apart from the Mobius ladder on 8 vertices no non-trivial graph of any degree 3 and cyclic defect or excess exists. .
