Let $S$ be a set of transpositions such that the girth of the transposition graph of $S$ is at least 5. It is shown that the automorphism group of the Cayley graph of the permutation group $H$ generated by $S$ is the semidirect product…
The modified bubble-sort graph of dimension $n$ is the Cayley graph of $S_n$ generated by $n$ cyclically adjacent transpositions. In the present paper, it is shown that the automorphism group of the modified bubble sort graph of dimension…
A Cayley graph of a group $H$ is a finite simple graph $\Gamma$ such that its automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(\Gamma)$ contains a subgroup isomorphic to $H$ acting regularly on $V(\Gamma)$, while a Haar graph of $H$ is a finite simple…
A Cayley digraph on a group $G$ is called NNN if the Cayley digraph is normal and its automorphism group contains a non-normal regular subgroup isomorphic to $G$. A group is called NNND-group or NNN-group if there is an NNN Cayley digraph…
An automorphism of a graph is called quasi-semiregular if it fixes a unique vertex of the graph and its remaining cycles have the same length. This kind of symmetry of graphs was first investigated by Kutnar, Malni\v{c}, Mart\'{i}nez and…
We show that almost all circulant graphs have automorphism groups as small as possible. Of the circulant graphs that do not have automorphism group as small as possible, we give some families of integers such that it is not true that almost…
A Cayley graph on a group $G$ has a natural edge-colouring. We say that such a graph is CCA if every automorphism of the graph that preserves this edge-colouring is an element of the normaliser of the regular representation of $G$. A group…
A Cayley (di)graph $Cay(G,S)$ of a group $G$ with respect to $S$ is said to be normal if the right regular representation of $G$ is normal in the automorphism group of $Cay(G,S)$, and is called a CI-(di)graph if there is $\alpha\in Aut(G)$…
A graph $\G$ with a group $H$ of automorphisms acting semiregularly on the vertices with two orbits is called a {\em bi-Cayley graph} over $H$. When $H$ is a normal subgroup of $\Aut(\G)$, we say that $\G$ is {\em normal} with respect to…
A graph $\G$ is {\em symmetric} or {\em arc-transitive} if its automorphism group $\Aut(\G)$ is transitive on the arc set of the graph, and $\G$ is {\em basic} if $\Aut(\G)$ has no non-trivial normal subgroup $N$ such that the quotient…
This paper deals with the Cayley graph $\Cay,$ where the generating set consists of all block transpositions. A motivation for the study of these particular Cayley graphs comes from current research in Bioinformatics. We prove that…
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…
We introduce the notion of an \emph{$n$-dimensional mixed dihedral group}, a general class of groups for which we give a graph theoretic characterisation. In particular, if $H$ is an $n$-dimensional mixed dihedral group then the we…
It has long been known that a vertex-transitive graph $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to a double coset graph $\text{Cos}(G,H,S)$ of a transitive group $G\le\text{Aut}(\Gamma)$, a vertex stabilizer $H\le G$, and some subset $S\subseteq G$. We show…
A graph $\G$ admitting a group $H$ of automorphisms acting semi-regularly on the vertices with exactly two orbits is called a {\em bi-Cayley graph\/} over $H$. Such a graph $\G$ is called {\em normal\/} if $H$ is normal in the full…
Let $S_n$ and $A_{n}$ denote the symmetric and alternating group on the set $\{1,.., n\},$ respectively. In this paper we are interested in the second largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{2}(\Gamma)$ of the Cayley graph $\Gamma=Cay(G,H)$ over…
It is known that the automorphism group of the elementary abelian $2$-group $Z_2^n$ is isomorphic to the general linear group $GL(n,F_2)$ of degree $n$ over $F_2$. Let $W$ be the collection of permutation matrices of order $n$. It is clear…
It is well-known that the pancake graphs are widely used as models for interconnection networks \cite{Akers}. In this paper, some properties of the pancake graphs are investigated. We first prove that the pancake graph, denoted by $P_n…
A graph is said to be symmetric if its automorphism group is transitive on its arcs. Guo et al. (Electronic J. Combin. 18, \#P233, 2011) and Pan et al. (Electronic J. Combin. 20, \#P36, 2013) determined all pentavalent symmetric graphs of…
A graph $\Gamma$ is said to be a semi-Cayley graph over a group $G$ if it admits $G$ as a semiregular automorphism group with two orbits of equal size. We say that $\Gamma$ is normal if $G$ is a normal subgroup of ${\rm Aut}(\Gamma)$. We…
