In this paper, we determine the diameter of the commuting involution graphs of special and general linear groups over an arbitrary field. It turns out that our results also determine the diameter for certain projective special linear groups…
Let $G$ be a finite group. The co-prime order graph of $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is $G$, and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if gcd$(o(x),o(y))$ is either $1$ or a prime, where $o(x)$ and $o(y)$ are the orders of $x$ and…
We determine the structure of automorphism groups of finite graphs of bounded Hadwiger number. Our proof includes a structural analysis of finite edge-transitive graphs. In particular, we show that for connected, $K_{h+1}$-minor-free,…
We show that every gammoid has special digraph representations, such that a representation of the dual of the gammoid may be easily obtained by reversing all arcs. In an informal sense, the duality notion of a poset applied to the digraph…
Let X be a non-empty finite set, E be a finite dimensional euclidean vector space and G a finite subgroup of O(E), the orthognal group of E. Suppose GG={U_i | i in X} is a finite set of linear lines in E and an orbit of G on which its…
In an earlier paper the first two authors have shown that self-complementary graphs can always be oriented in such a way that the union of the oriented version and its isomorphically oriented complement gives a transitive tournament. We…
In this paper we develop three characterizations for isomorphism of graphs. The first characterization is obtained by associating certain bitableaux with the graphs. We order these bitableaux by suitably defined lexicographic order and…
We characterise connected cubic graphs admitting a vertex- transitive group of automorphisms with an abelian normal subgroup that is not semiregular. We illustrate the utility of this result by using it to prove that the order of a…
In this article, we will show that the automorphism group of any hypergraph is essentially equal to the determinant of some matrix over a ring generated from the set of ground points. With this, we are also able to determine whether two…
Given a finite group G, let cd(G) denote the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of G. The character degree graph of G is defined as the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of the numbers in cd(G),…
Let $A$ be a group acting by automorphisms on the group $G.$ \textit{The commuting graph $\Gamma(G,A)$ of $A$-orbits} of this action is the simple graph with vertex set $\{x^{A} : 1\ne x \in G \}$, the set of all $A$-orbits on $G\setminus…
In 1968, Erd\"os defined the Shift Graph as the graph whose vertices are the $k$-element subsets of $[n]=\{0,1,2,...,n-1\}$ such that $A=\{a_1,...,a_k\}$ and $B=\{b_1,...,b_k\}$ are neighbours iff $a_1<b_1=a_2<b_2=a_3<... <b_{n-1}=a_n<b_n$.…
The metric (resp. edge metric) dimension of a simple connected graph $G$, denoted by dim$(G)$ (resp. edim$(G)$), is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ for which every two distinct vertices (resp. edges) in $G$…
This thesis concerns the study of homogeneous factorisations of complete graphs with edge-transitive factors. A factorisation of a complete graph $K_n$ is a partition of its edges into disjoint classes. Each class of edges in a…
A near permutation of a set is a bijection between two cofinite subsets, modulo coincidence on smaller cofinite subsets. Near permutations of a set form its near symmetric group. In this monograph, we define near actions as homomorphisms…
In this short note, we relate the boxicity of graphs (and the dimension of posets) with their generalized coloring parameters. In particular, together with known estimates, our results imply that any graph with no $K_t$-minor can be…
A graph $\Ga=(V,E)$ is called a Cayley graph of some group $T$ if the automorphism group $\Aut(\Ga)$ contains a subgroup $T$ which acts on regularly on $V$. If the subgroup $T$ is normal in $\Aut(\Ga)$ then $\Ga$ is called a normal Cayley…
A subgroup of the automorphism group of a graph $\G$ is said to be {\em half-arc-transitive} on $\G$ if its action on $\G$ is transitive on the vertex set of $\G$ and on the edge set of $\G$ but not on the arc set of $\G$. Tetravalent…
The mixed metric dimension ${\rm mdim}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices that (metrically) resolves each pair of elements from $V(G)\cup E(G)$. We say that $G$ is a max-mdim graph if ${\rm mdim}(G) = n(G)$.…
We determine the quantum automorphism groups of finite graphs. These are quantum subgroups of the quantum permutation groups defined by Wang. The quantum automorphism group is a stronger invariant for finite graphs than the usual one. We…
