A fiveleaper graph is a graph formed by all possible moves of a hypothetical chess piece called a "fiveleaper" which moves analogously to a knight except that it is restricted to moves that change by three squares along one axis of the board and four squares along the other or by five squares along one axis. To form the graph, each chessboard square is considered a vertex, and vertices connected by allowable fiveleaper moves are considered edges. The fiveleaper gets its name from the fact that all its move have a length of 5 squares.
The fiveleaper is similar to the hypothetical chess piece called an "antelope," but it can make an antelope's move or a rook's move of exactly 5 squares.
The plots above show the graphs corresponding to antelope graphs on chessboards for
to 7.
