Abstract As a generalization of orbit-polynomial and distance-regular graphs, we introduce the concept of a quotient-polynomial graph. In these graphs every vertex u induces the same regular partition around u, where all vertices of each cell are equidistant from u. Some properties and characterizations of such graphs are studied. For instance, all quotient-polynomial graphs are walk-regular and distance-polynomial. Also, we show that every quotient-polynomial graph generates a (symmetric) association scheme.
