Abstract
In this paper, we introduce deficient complete bipartite graphs and deduce a formula for graded Betti numbers of their edge rings in terms of associated combinatorial data. As a consequence, we obtain the graded Betti numbers of edge rings of complete bipartite graphs and the n-crown graph
Also, the projective dimension and the regularity of edge rings of these graphs are obtained.
