Let $f(n)$ be the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices in which no two cycles have the same length. P. Erdos raised the problem of determining $f(n)$ (see J.A. Bondy and U.S.R. Murty, Graph Theory with Applications (Macmillan, New York, 1976), p.247, Problem 11). We present the problems, conjectures related to this problems and we summarize the know results. We make the following conjecture: \par \noindent{\bf Conjecture } $$\lim\sb {n \to \infty} {f(n)-n \over \sqrt n} = \sqrt {2 + \frac{4}{9}}.$$

Let $K_{m}-H$ be the graph obtained from $K_{m}$ by removing the edges set $E(H)$ of the graph $H$ ($H$ is a subgraph of $K_{m}$). We use the symbol $Z_4$ to denote $K_4-P_2.$ A sequence $S$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical if it has a realization containing a $K_{m}-H$ as a subgraph. Let $\sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ denote the smallest degree sum such that every $n$-term graphical sequence $S$ with $\sigma(S)\geq \sigma(K_{m}-H, n)$ is potentially $K_{m}-H$-graphical. In this paper, we determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-Z, n)$ for $n\geq 5r+19, r+1 \geq k \geq 5,$ $j \geq 5$ where $Z$ is a graph on $k$ vertices and $j$ edges which contains a graph $Z_4$ but not contains a cycle on $4$ vertices. We also determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-Z_4, n)$, $\sigma (K_{r+1}-(K_4-e), n)$, $\sigma (K_{r+1}-K_4, n)$ for $n\geq 5r+16, r\geq 4$.

In this paper, we determine the values of $\sigma (K_{r+1}-U, n)$ for $n\geq 5r+18, r+1 \geq k \geq 7,$ $j \geq 6$ where $U$ is a graph on $k$ vertices and $j$ edges which contains a graph $K_3 \bigcup P_3$ but not contains a cycle on $4$ vertices and not contains $Z_4$.
