We investigate how exchange-graph techniques can be used to study the topology of strata of meromorphic quadratic differentials. The exchange graph provides natural generators for the fundamental group. By extending the combinatorics of…

The two graphs of the title both have vertex set G. In the intersection power graph, x and y are joined if some non-identity element is a power of both; in the power graph, x and y joined if one is a power of the other. Thus the power graph…

A set of vertices $S$ \emph{resolves} a graph $G$ if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The \emph{metric dimension} of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set. In this…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a set of integers greater than one. The $\mathcal{X}$-excluded power graph of a group $G$ has vertex set $G$ and an edge from $g$ to each power of $g$ other than itself provided that the power is not divisible by any…

The symmetric tensor power of graphs is introduced and its fundamental properties are explored. A wide range of intriguing phenomena occur when one considers symmetric tensor powers of familiar graphs. A host of open questions are…

The notion of resolving sets in a graph was introduced by Slater (1975) and Harary and Melter (1976) as a way of uniquely identifying every vertex in a graph. A set of vertices in a graph is a resolving set if for any pair of vertices x and…

For a finite group $G$ and for a fixed positive integer $k$, $k\geq 2$, the $k$-power graph of $G$ is an undirected simple graph with vertex set $G$ in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x^k=y$ or $y^k=x$.…

A shelling of a graph, viewed as an abstract simplicial complex that is pure of dimension 1, is an ordering of its edges such that every edge is adjacent to some other edges appeared previously. In this paper, we focus on complete bipartite…

These notes concern aspects of various graphs whose vertex set is a group $G$ and whose edges reflect group structure in some way (so that they are invariant under the action of the automorphism group of $G$). The graphs I will discuss are…
