Metacirculants are a rich resource of many families of interesting graphs, and weak metacirculants are generalizations of them. A graph is called a {\em split weak metacirculant} if it has a vertex-transitive split metacyclic automorphism…
The algebraic degree $Deg(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the dimension of the splitting field of the adjacency polynomial of $G$ over the field $\mathbb{Q}$. It can be shown that for every positive integer $d$, there exists a circulant graph with…
In this paper, we classify commutative weakly distance-regular digraphs of valency 3 with girth more than 2 and one type of arcs. Combining [8, Theorem 1.2], [10, Theorem 1.3] and [11, Theorem 1], commutative weakly distanceregular digraphs…
We characterize the bipartite graphs that minimize the (first-degree based) entropy, among all bipartite graphs of given size, or given size and (upper bound on the) order. The extremal graphs turn out to be complete bipartite graphs, or…
We conservatively extend classical elementary differential calculus to the Cartesian closed category of convergence spaces. By specializing results about the convergence space representation of directed graphs, we use Cayley graphs to…
In this paper we investigate weak polynomial identities for the Weyl algebra $\mathsf{A}_1$ over an infinite field of arbitrary characteristic. Namely, we describe weak polynomial identities of the minimal degree, which is three, and of…
We study the unitary Cayley graph of a matrix semiring. We find bounds for its diameter, clique number and independence number, and determine its girth. We also find the relationship between the diameter and the clique number of a unitary…
A nut graph is a non-trivial simple graph such that its adjacency matrix has a one-dimensional null space spanned by a full vector. It was recently shown by the authors that there exists a $d$-regular circulant nut graph of order $n$ if and…
The gonality of a graph measures how difficult it is to move chips around the entirety of a graph according to certain chip-firing rules without introducing debt. In this paper we study the gonality of circulant graphs, a class of…
A strong clique in a graph is a clique intersecting every maximal independent set. We study the computational complexity of six algorithmic decision problems related to strong cliques in graphs and almost completely determine their…
The article deals with two classes of growing random graphs following the preferential attachment rule with a linear weight function, L-graphs, and hybrid Pennock graphs. We determine the exact final vertex degree distribution and the exact…
The Cayley graphs of finite groups are known to provide several examples of families of expanders, and some of them are Ramanujan graphs. Babai studied isospectral non-isomorphic Cayley graphs of the dihedral groups. Lubotzky, Samuels and…
Complex network theory crucially depends on the assumptions made about the degree distribution, while fitting degree distributions to network data is challenging, in particular for scale-free networks with power-law degrees. We present a…
Given a set D of nonnegative integers, we derive the asymptotic number of graphs with a givenvnumber of vertices, edges, and such that the degree of every vertex is in D. This generalizes existing results, such as the enumeration of graphs…
A strict lower bound for the diameter of a symmetric graph is proposed, which is calculable with the order $n$ and other local parameters of the graph such as the degree $k\,(\geq 3)$, even girth $g\,(\geq 4)$, and number of $g$-cycles…
A diagonal base of a Sylow 2-subgroup $P_n(2)$ of symmetric group $S_{2^n}$ is a minimal generating set of this subgroup consisting of elements with only one non-zero coordinate in the polynomial representation. For different diagonal bases…
It is known that the number of vertices of a graph of diameter two cannot exceed $d^2+1$. In this contribution we give a new lower bound for orders of Cayley graphs of diameter two in the form $C(d,2)>0.684d^2$ valid for all degrees $d\geq…
In this paper, we consider various graphs, namely: power graph, cyclic graph, enhanced power graph and commuting graph, on a finite semigroup $S$. For an arbitrary pair of these four graphs, we classify finite semigroups such that the…
We consider the family of generalized Paley graphs (GP-graphs for short) $\Gamma(k,q) = Cay(\mathbb{F}_q, (\mathbb{F}_q^*)^k)$, with $q=p^m$ and $p$ prime. We characterize all GP-graphs having real spectrum; namely, $Spec(\Gamma(k,q))…
Due to their elegant and simple nature, unitary Cayley graphs have been an active research topic in the literature. These graphs are naturally connected to several branches of mathematics, including number theory, finite algebra,…
