As a vital link between group theory and graph theory, Cayley graphs provide a geometric framework for encoding algebraic structures. This study explores the properties of Cayley graphs derived from cyclic groups whose order is the square…

A mixed graph $G$ can contain both (undirected) edges and arcs (directed edges). Here we derive an improved Moore-like bound for the maximum number of vertices of a mixed graph with diameter at least three. Moreover, a complete enumeration…

The Pancake graphs $P_n, n\geqslant 2$, are Cayley graphs over the symmetric group $\mathrm{Sym}_n$ generated by prefix-reversals. There are six generating sets of prefix-reversals of cardinality three which give connected Cayley graphs…

An important topic in the design of efficient networks is the construction of $(d,k,+\epsilon )$-digraphs, i.e. $k$-geodetic digraphs with minimum out-degree $\geq d$ and order $M(d,k)+ \epsilon $, where $M(d,k)$ represents the Moore bound…

We prove that for all $0\leq t\leq k$ and $d\geq 2k$, every graph $G$ with treewidth at most $k$ has a `large' induced subgraph $H$, where $H$ has treewidth at most $t$ and every vertex in $H$ has degree at most $d$ in $G$. The order of $H$…

This paper considers the edge-connectivity and restricted edge-connectivity of replacement product graphs, gives some bounds on edge-connectivity and restricted edge-connectivity of replacement product graphs and determines the exact values…

In this paper we derive results concerning the connected components and the diameter of random graphs with an arbitrary i.i.d. degree sequence. We study these properties primarily, but not exclusively, when the tail of the degree…

We analyze the distribution of the distance between two nodes, sampled uniformly at random, in digraphs generated via the directed configuration model, in the supercritical regime. Under the assumption that the covariance between the…

Let $b(k,\theta)$ be the maximum order of a connected bipartite $k$-regular graph whose second largest eigenvalue is at most $\theta$. In this paper, we obtain a general upper bound for $b(k,\theta)$ for any $0\leq \theta< 2\sqrt{k-1}$. Our…

We investigate structural and algorithmic advantages of a directed version of the well-researched class of distance-hereditary graphs. Since the previously defined distance-hereditary digraphs do not permit a recursive structure, we define…

This paper considers the degree-diameter problem for undirected circulant graphs. The focus is on extremal graphs of given (small) degree and arbitrary diameter. The published literature only covers graphs of up to degree 7. The approach…

We obtain a complete description of the planar cubic Cayley graphs, providing an explicit presentation and embedding for each of them. This turns out to be a rich class, comprising several infinite families. We obtain counterexamples to…

We consider the problem of estimating the graph size, where one is given only local access to the graph. We formally define a query model in which one starts with a \emph{seed} node and is allowed to make queries about neighbours of nodes…

We deal with connected $k$-regular multigraphs of order $n$ that has only three distinct eigenvalues. In this paper, we study the largest possible number of vertices of such a graph for given $k$. For $k=2,3,7$, the Moore graphs are…

In this paper we characterize all of Cayley graphs on dihedral groups with metric dimension two.

Let $D=(V,E)$ be a strongly connected digraph and let $u ,v\in V(D)$. The maximum distance $md (u,v)$ is defined as\\ $md(u,v)$=max\{$\overrightarrow{d}(u,v), \overrightarrow{d}(v,u)$\} where $\overrightarrow{d}(u,v)$ denote the length of a…

We show that an intricate relation of cluster properties and optimal bipartitions, which takes place in undirected random graphs, extends to directed and mixed random graphs. In particular, the satisfability threshold coincides with the…

Given a digraph, an ordering of its vertices defines a backedge graph, namely the undirected graph whose edges correspond to the arcs pointing backwards with respect to the order. The degreewidth of a digraph is the minimum over all…

Let $E$ be a proper symmetric subset of $S^{d-1}$, and $C_{\mathbb{F}_q^d}(E)$ be the Cayley graph with the vertex set $\mathbb{F}_q^d$, and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are connected by an edge if $x-y\in E$. Let $k\ge 2$ be a positive…

We discuss a notion of clustering for directed graphs, which describes how likely two followers of a node are to follow a common target. The associated network motifs, called dicliques or bi-fans, have been found to be key structural…
