Let $G$ be a group. The \emph{power graph} of $G$ is a graph with the vertex set $G$, having an edge between two elements whenever one is a power of the other. We characterize nilpotent groups whose power graphs have finite independence…

In this paper, we determine the class of finite 2-arc-transitive bicirculants. We show that a connected $2$-arc-transitive bicirculant is one of the following graphs: $C_{2n}$ where $n\geqslant 2$, $\K_{2n}$ where $n\geqslant 2$, $\K_{n,n}$…

A path in an edge-colored graph is called a proper path if no two adjacent edges of the path are colored the same. For a connected graph $G$, the proper connection number $pc(G)$ of $G$ is defined as the minimum number of colors needed to…

The power graph $\mathcal P_G$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph with the vertex set $G$, where two elements are adjacent if one is a power of the other. We first show that $\mathcal P_G$ has an transitive orientation, so it is a perfect…
