Transitive,Locally Finite Median Graphs with Finite Blocks

The subject of this paper are infinite, locally finite, vertex-transitive median graphs. It is shown that the finiteness of the Θ-classes of such graphs does not guarantee finite blocks. Blocks become finite if, in addition, no finite sequence of Θ-contractions produces new cut-vertices. It is proved that there are only finitely many vertex-transitive median graphs of given finite degree with finite blocks. An infinite family of vertex-transitive median graphs with finite intransitive blocks is also constructed and the list of vertex-transitive median graphs of degree four is presented.
