Let $G$ be a finite connected graph, and let $\rho$ be the spectral radius of its universal cover. For example, if $G$ is $k$-regular then $\rho=2\sqrt{k-1}$. We show that for every $r$, there is an $r$-covering (a.k.a. an $r$-lift) of $G$…

We prove that $q+1$-regular Morgenstern Ramanujan graphs $X^{q,g}$ (depending on $g\in\mathbb{F}_q[t]$) have diameter at most $\left(\frac{4}{3}+\varepsilon\right)\log_{q}|X^{q,g}|+O_{\varepsilon}(1)$ (at least for odd $q$ and irreducible…

A connected symmetric graph of prime valency is {\em basic} if its automorphism group contains no nontrivial normal subgroup having more than two orbits. Let $p$ be a prime and $n$ a positive integer. In this paper, we investigate…

We consider finite graphs whose vertexes are supersingular elliptic curves, possibly with level structure, and edges are isogenies. They can be applied to the study of modular forms and to isogeny based cryptography. The main result of this…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $n$. For any subset $B$ of $G$ with $B=-B$, the Cayley graph $G_B$ is a graph on vertex set $G$ in which $ij$ is an edge if and only if $i-j\in B.$ It was shown by Ben Green that when $G$ is a…

We prove that thick groups (and more generally thick graphs) have trivial Floyd boundary. This shows a wide class of finitely generated groups that are non-relatively hyperbolic have trivial Floyd boundary. In addition to giving new…

We investigate structural and combinatorial properties of Bi-Cayley graphs defined over cyclic groups of order $p^2q^2$, where $p$ and $q$ are distinct primes. We begin by describing their fundamental group-theoretic underpinnings. The main…

We prove that the Cayley graphs $X(G,S)$ and $X^+(G,S)$ are equienergetic for any abelian group $G$ and any symmetric subset $S$. We then focus on the family of unitary Cayley graphs $G_R=X(R,R^*)$, where $R$ is a finite commutative ring…

We continue the study of prime graphs of finite groups, also known as Gruenberg-Kegel graphs. The vertices of the prime graph of a finite group are the prime divisors of the group order, and two vertices $p$ and $q$ are connected by an edge…

The problem of constructing or characterizing strongly regular Cayley graphs (or equivalently, regular partial difference sets) has garnered significant attention over the past half-century. In 2003, Miklavi\v{c} and Poto\v{c}nik [European…

For every constant $d \geq 3$ and $\epsilon > 0$, we give a deterministic $\mathrm{poly}(n)$-time algorithm that outputs a $d$-regular graph on $\Theta(n)$ vertices that is $\epsilon$-near-Ramanujan; i.e., its eigenvalues are bounded in…

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected $7$-valent symmetric Cayley graph on a finite non-abelian simple group $G$. If $\Gamma$ is not normal, Li {\em et al.} [On 7-valent symmetric Cayley graphs of finite simple groups, J. Algebraic Combin. 56 (2022)…

We determine the spectra of cubic plane graphs whose faces have sizes 3 and 6. Such graphs, "(3,6)-fullerenes", have been studied by chemists who are interested in their energy spectra. In particular we prove a conjecture of Fowler, which…

In this paper, we investigate the complexity of an infinite family of Cayley graphs $\mathcal{D}_{n}=Cay(\mathbb{D}_{n}, b^{\pm\beta_1},b^{\pm\beta_2},\ldots,b^{\pm\beta_s}, a b^{\gamma_1}, a b^{\gamma_2},\ldots, a b^{\gamma_t} )$ on the…

For a subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$, the Frobenius graph $\Gamma(G, H)$ records the constituents of the restrictions to $H$ of the irreducible characters of $G$. We investigate when this graph has diameter 3.

It is observed that the conjugacy growth series of the infinite finitary symmetric group with respect to the generating set of transpositions is the generating series of the partition function. Other conjugacy growth series are computed,…

It was proved in [Y.-Q. Feng, C. H. Li and J.-X. Zhou, Symmetric cubic graphs with solvable automorphism groups, {\em European J. Combin.} {\bf 45} (2015), 1-11] that a cubic symmetric graph with a solvable automorphism group is either a…

Let $G = \mathrm{SCl}_n(q)$ be a quasisimple classical group with $n$ large, and let $x_1, \dots, x_k \in G$ random, where $k \geq q^C$. We show that the diameter of the resulting Cayley graph is bounded by $q^2 n^{O(1)}$ with probability…

In this article we complete the work of enumerating typical abelian coverings of Cayley graphs, by reducing the problem to enumerating certain subgroups of finite abelian groups.

We extend to an arbitrary number field the best known bounds towards the Ramanujan conjecture for the groups GL(n), n=2, 3, 4. In particular, we present a technique which overcomes the analytic obstacles posed by the presence of an infinite…
