Degree-diameter problem $N(4,7)$

The largest possible number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $4$ and diameter at most $7$.

Verified bounds

Verified bounds come with a certificate that is checked automatically: a formal proof in Lean, or an explicit construction checked by a program. Submit a certificate.
