Abstract
Perfect secret sharing scheme is a method to distribute a secret information s among participants such that only predefined coalitions, called qualified subsets of participants can recover the secret, while any other coalitions, the unqualified subsets, cannot determine anything about the secret. The most important property is the efficiency of the system, which is measured by the information ratio. It can be shown that for graphs the information ratio is at most (δ + 1)/2 where δ is the maximum degree of the graph. Blundo et al. constructed a family of δ-regular graphs with information ratio (δ + 1)/2 on at least c · 6 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">δ</sup> vertices. We improve this result by constructing a significantly smaller graph family on c · 2 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">δ</sup> vertices achieving the same upper bound both in the worst and the average case.
