For a group $G$ and a subset $X$ of $G$, the commuting graph of $X$, denoted by $\Gamma(G,X)$ is the graph whose vertex set is $X$ and any two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $X$ are adjacent if and only if they commute in $G$. In this article,…

We introduce the normalising graph of a group and study the connectivity of the normalising and permuting graphs of a group when the group is finite and soluble. In particular, we classify finite soluble groups with disconnected normalising…

For a finite group generated by involutions, the involution width is defined to be the minimal $k\in\mathbb{N}$ such that any group element can be written as a product of at most $k$ involutions. We show that the involution width of every…

We study groups definable in existentially closed geometric fields with commuting derivations. Our main result is that such a group can be definably embedded in a group interpretable in the underlying geometric field. Compared to earlier…

The diameter of a graph measures the maximal distance between any pair of vertices. The diameters of many small-world networks, as well as a variety of other random graph models, grow logarithmically in the number of nodes. In contrast, the…

In this paper we study the realizability question for commuting graphs of finite groups: Given an undirected graph $X$ is it the commuting graph of a group $G$? And if so, to determine such a group. We seek efficient algorithms for this…

We give an explicit description of character sheaves for the symmetric pairs associated to inner involutions of the special linear groups. We make use of the general strategy given in [VX1] and central character consideration. We also…

The commuting graph of a finite soluble group with trivial centre is investigated. It is shown that the diameter of such a graph is at most 8 or the graph is disconnected. Examples of soluble groups with trivial centre and commuting graph…

For a division ring D, finite dimensional over its center F, we give a condiction for the connectedness of the commuting graph of a matrix ring over $D$. Furthermore, we prove that if the commuting graph is connected, then its diameter is…

Each group G of nxn permutation matrices has a corresponding permutation polytope, P(G):=conv(G) in R^{nxn}. We relate the structure of P(G) to the transitivity of G. In particular, we show that if G has t nontrivial orbits, then…

The commuting graph of a finite non-commutative semigroup $S$, denoted $\cg(S)$, is a simple graph whose vertices are the non-central elements of $S$ and two distinct vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if $xy=yx$. Let $\mi(X)$ be the symmetric…

Let $G$ be a finite, non-abelian group of the form $G = A N$, where $A \leq G$ is abelian, and $N \trianglelefteq G$ is cyclic. We prove that the commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is either a connected graph of diameter at most four, or…

Comparability graphs are graphs which have transitive orientations. The dimension of a poset is the least number of linear orders whose intersection gives this poset. The dimension ${\rm dim}(X)$ of a comparability graph $X$ is the…

We initiate the study of analogues of symmetric spaces for the family of finite dihedral groups. In particular, we investigate the structure of the automorphism group, characterize the involutions of the automorphism group, and determine…

Given a finite group $G$ and a conjugacy class of involutions $X$ of $G$, we define the commuting involution graph $\mathcal{C}(G,X)$ to be the graph with vertex set $X$ and $x,y \in X$ adjacent if and only if $x \neq y$ and $xy =yx$. In…

In a recent paper C. Miguel proved that the diameter of the commuting graph of the matrix ring $\mathrm{M}_n(\mathbb{R})$ is equal to $4$ either if $n=3$ or $n>4$. But the case $n=4$ remained open, since the diameter could be $4$ or $5$. In…
