The $G$-graph $\Gamma(G,S)$ is a graph from the group $G$ generated by $S\subseteq G$, where the vertices are the right cosets of the cyclic subgroups $\langle s \rangle, s\in S$ with $k$-edges between two distinct cosets if there is an…
The vertices of the Cayley graph of a finitely generated semigroup form a set of sites which can be labeled by elements of a finite alphabet in a manner governed by a nonnegative real interaction matrix, respecting nearest neighbor…
Geometric semigroup theory is the systematic investigation of finitely-generated semigroups using the topology and geometry of their associated automata. In this article we show how a number of easily-defined expansions on finite semigroups…
A new algebraic Cayley graph is constructed using finite fields. Its connectedness and diameter bound are studied via Weil's estimate for character sums. These graphs provide a new source of expander graphs, extending classical results of…
Binomial Cayley graphs are obtained by considering the binomial coefficient of the weight function of a given Cayley graph and a natural number. We introduce these objects and study two families: one associated with symmetric groups and the…
Random intersection graphs model networks with communities, assuming an underlying bipartite structure of groups and individuals, where these groups may overlap. Group memberships are generated through the bipartite configuration model.…
Let Gamma be a connected, locally finite graph of finite tree width and G be a group acting on it with finitely many orbits and finite node stabilizers. We provide an elementary and direct construction of a tree T on which G acts with…
We answer three questions posed in a paper by Babson and Benjamini. They introduced a parameter $C_G$ for Cayley graphs $G$ that has significant application to percolation. For a minimal cutset of $G$ and a partition of this cutset into two…
When one studies geometric properties of graphs, local finiteness is a common implicit assumption, and that of transitivity a frequent explicit one. By compactness arguments, local finiteness guarantees several regularity properties. It is…
For a formation $\mathfrak{F}$ of finite groups, tight connections are established between the pro-$\mathfrak{F}$-topology of a finitely generated free group $F$ and the geometry of the Cayley graph $\Gamma(\hat{F_{\mathfrak{F}}})$ of the…
We consider the existence of the topological entropy of shift spaces on a finitely generated semigroup whose Cayley graph is a tree. The considered semigroups include free groups. On the other hand, the notion of stem entropy is introduced.…
By analogy with the Cayley graph of a group with respect to a finite generating set or the Cayley--Abels graph of a totally disconnected, locally compact group, we detail countable connected graphs associated to Polish groups that we term…
We show that every non-trivial compact connected group and every non-trivial general or special linear group over an infinite field admits a generating set such that the associated Cayley graph has infinite diameter.
We define the notion of the partial order of ends of the Cayley graph of a semigroup. We prove that the structure of the ends of a semigroup is invariant under change of finite generating set and at the same time is inherited by…
Colouring problems arising from group-based constructions provide a natural link between combinatorics and algebra, particularly in the study of Cayley graphs and Latin squares. We introduce the notion of colouring bijections of finite…
Gromov (2003) constructed finitely generated groups whose Cayley graphs contain all graphs from a given infinite sequence of expander graphs of unbounded girth and bounded diameter-to-girth ratio. These so-called Gromov monster groups…
We present a novel construction of finite groupoids whose Cayley graphs have large girth even w.r.t. a discounted distance measure that contracts arbitrarily long sequences of edges from the same colour class (sub-groupoid), and only counts…
A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…
Mapping class groups are known to admit geometric (proper, cobounded) actions on injective spaces. Starting with such an action, and relying only on geometric arguments, we show that all finite generating sets resulting from taking large…
We give a new proof of a theorem of D. Calegari that says that the Cayley graph of a surface group with respect to any generating set lying in finitely many mapping class group orbits has infinite diameter. This applies, for instance, to…
