A signed graph is said to be sign-symmetric if it is switching isomorphic to its negation. Bipartite signed graphs are trivially sign-symmetric. We give new constructions of non-bipartite sign-symmetric signed graphs. Sign-symmetric signed…
For a group $G$ and subsets $S,T \subset G$ we introduce the mirror di-Cayley graph $MX(G;S,T)$ and mirror di-Cayley sum graph $MX^+(G;S,T)$ with connections sets $S$ and $T$ (MDCGs for short). We refer to them indistinctly by…
We consider the problem of enumerating permutations in the symmetric group on $n$ elements which avoid a given set of consecutive pattern $S$, and in particular computing asymptotics as $n$ tends to infinity. We develop a general method…
We introduce a new model for investigating spectral properties of quantum graphs, a quantum circulant graph. Circulant graphs are the Cayley graphs of cyclic groups. Quantum circulant graphs with standard vertex conditions maintain…
In this paper we introduce the symmetric normaliser graph of a group $G$. The vertex set of this graph consists of elements of the group. Vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if $x$ lies in the normaliser of $\langle y \rangle$ and $y$ lies in…
This is the fourth paper in the CayleyPy project, which applies AI methods to the exploration of large graphs. In this work, we suggest the existence of a new discrete version of holographic string dualities for this setup, and discuss…
This paper establishes an upper bound on the number of generalized cospectral mates of simple graphs, where the generalized spectrum consists of the spectrum of a graph and its complement. Moving beyond the classical problem of identifying…
We consider a family of card shuffles of $n$ cards in which the allowed moves involve transpositions corresponding to the Jucys--Murphy elements of the symmetric group $\{S_m\}_{m \leq n}$. We determine the eigenvalues of the corresponding…
We focus on the tranformation matrices between the standard Young-Yamanouchi basis of an irreducible representation for the symmetric group S_n and the split basis adapted to the direct product subgroups S_{n_1} \times S_{n-n_1} . We…
In the symmetric group Sym(n) with n at least 5 let H be a conjugacy class of elements of order 2 and let \Gamma be the Cayley graph whose vertex set is the group G generated by H (so G is Sym(n) or Alt(n)) and whose edge set is determined…
We put forward a proof of Solomon's rule, in terms of matrices, for multiplication in the descent algebra of the symmetric group. Our proof exploits the graphs that we can obtain from all the subsets of the set of transpositions,…
The Rayleigh monotonicity is a principle from the theory of electrical networks. Its combinatorial interpretation says for each two edges of a graph G, that the presence of one of them in a random spanning tree of G is negatively correlated…
For dendrite graphs from biological experiments on mouse's retinal ganglion cells, a paper by Nakatsukasa, Saito and Woei reveals a mysterious phase transition phenomenon in the spectra of the corresponding graph Laplacian matrices. While…
Graphs with given k vertices generate an (acyclic) simplicial complex. We describe the homology of its quotient complex, formed by all connected graphs, and demonstrate its applications to the topology of braid groups, knot theory,…
This note concerns a one-line diagrammatic proof of the Cayley-Hamilton Theorem. We discuss the proof's implications regarding the "core truth" of the theorem, and provide a generalization. We review the notation of trace diagrams and…
The unitary Cayley graph of $\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z$, denoted $G_{\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z}$, is the graph with vertices $0,1,\ldots,$ $n-1$ in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if their difference is relatively prime to $n$. These…
The Johnson graph $J(n,i)$ is defined to the graph whose vertex set is the set of all $i$-element subsets of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$, and two vertices are joined whenever the cardinality of their intersection is equal to $i-1$. In Ramras and…
The relative Cayley graph of a group $G$ with respect to its proper subgroup $H$, is a graph whose vertices are elements of $G$ and two vertices $h\in H$ and $g\in G$ are adjacent if $g=hc$ for some $c\in C$, where $C$ is an inversed-closed…
Adriano Garsia has provided an explicit formula to enumerate a certain class of permutations in the symmetric group S_n. In this short note, we prove a stronger version of the assertion under a specific conjecture.
A positive integer $n$ is a Cayley number if every vertex-transitive graph of order $n$ is a Cayley graph. In 1983, Dragan Maru\v{s}i\v{c} posed the problem of determining the Cayley numbers. In this paper we give an infinite set $S$ of…
