The main objective of this paper is to introduce a generalization of distance called superior distance in graphs. For two vertices and of a connected graph, we define . We define a -walk as a - walk that contains every vertex of . The superior distance from to is the length of a shortest -walk. In this paper, first we give the bounds for the superior diameter of a graph and a property that relates the superior eccentricities of adjacent vertices. Finally, we investigate those graphs that are isomorphic to the superior center of some connected graph and those graphs that are isomorphic to the superior periphery of some connected graph.
Keywords: superior distance, superior radius, superior diameter, superior center, superior periphery.
