A 0 regular graph consists of disconnected vertices, a 1 regular graph consists of disconnected edges, and a 2 regular graph consists of a disjoint union of cycles and infinite chains. Perhaps the updated files concerning regular twographs on 36 and 50 vertices need some explanation. For random walks on finite graphs, we record some equalities, inequalities and limit theorems as the size of graph tends to infinity which hold for vertextransitive graphs but not for general regular graphs.
