A countable graph is ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism between finite induced subgraphs can be extended to an automorphism. Woodrow and Lachlan showed that there are essentially four types of such countably infinite graphs: the random…
Let $G$ be a finite group. For a fixed element $g$ in $G$ and a given subgroup $H$ of $G$, the relative $g$-noncommuting graph of $G$ is a simple undirected graph whose vertex set is $G$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if $x \in…
Let $n$ be a positive integer, $q$ be a prime power, and $V$ be a vector space of dimension $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $G := V \rtimes G_0$, where $G_0$ is an irreducible subgroup of ${\rm GL}(V)$ which is maximal by inclusion with…
Let $\Gamma=(V,E)$ be a graph. If all the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the graph $\Gamma$ are integers, then we say that $\Gamma$ is an integral graph. A graph $\Gamma$ is determined by its spectrum if every graph cospectral to it…
A retract of a graph $\Gamma$ is an induced subgraph $\Psi$ of $\Gamma$ such that there exists a homomorphism from $\Gamma$ to $\Psi$ whose restriction to $\Psi$ is the identity map. A graph is a core if it has no nontrivial retracts. In…
We study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\Aut(G)$.…
For a graph $G$ and a positive integer $k$, a vertex labelling $f:V(G)\to\{1,2\ldots,k\}$ is said to be $k$-distinguishing if no non-trivial automorphism of $G$ preserves the sets $f^{-1}(i)$ for each $i\in\{1,\ldots,k\}$. The…
Let $S$ be a set of transpositions that generates the symmetric group $S_n$, where $n \ge 3$. The transposition graph $T(S)$ is defined to be the graph with vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and with vertices $i$ and $j$ being adjacent in $T(S)$…
A mixed graph is said to be integral if all the eigenvalues of its Hermitian adjacency matrix are integer. Let $\Gamma$ be an abelian group. The \textit{mixed Cayley graph} $Cay(\Gamma,S)$ is a mixed graph on the vertex set $\Gamma$ and…
We present an infinite sequence of finite graphs with trivial automorphism group and non-trivial quantum automorphism group. These are the first known examples of graphs with this property. Moreover, to the best of our knowledge, these are…
For a nonabelian group G, the non-commuting graph $\Gamma_G$ of $G$ is defined as the graph with vertex set $G-Z(G)$, where $Z(G)$ is the center of $G$, and two distinct vertices of $\Gamma_G$ are adjacent if they do not commute in $G$. In…
The isomorphism problem of Cayley graphs has been well studied in the literature, such as characterizations of CI (DCI)-graphs and CI (DCI)-groups. In this paper, we generalize these to vertex-transitive graphs and establish parallel…
Permutation equivariant neural networks are typically used to learn from data that lives on a graph. However, for any graph $G$ that has $n$ vertices, using the symmetric group $S_n$ as its group of symmetries does not take into account the…
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…
Let $\mathcal{OG}(4)$ denote the family of all graph-group pairs $(\Gamma,G)$ where $\Gamma$ is 4-valent, connected and $G$-oriented ($G$-half-arc-transitive). Using a novel application of the structure theorem for biquasiprimitive…
We study commutation properties of subsets of right-angled Artin groups and trace monoids. We show that if Gamma is any graph not containing a four-cycle without chords, then the group G(Gamma) does not contain four elements whose…
Let G be a non-abelian group and let Z(G) be the center of G. Associate a graph {\Gamma}G (called non-commuting graph of G) as follows: Take G\Z(G) as the vertices of {\Gamma}G and join x and y, whenever $xy \not= yx$. In this paper, we…
This paper initiates the investigation of the family of $(G,s)$-geodesic-transitive digraphs with $s\geq 2$. We first give a global analysis by providing a reduction result. Let $\Gamma$ be such a digraph and let $N$ be a normal subgroup of…
We prove that if $\Gamma$ is a finite connected vertex-transitive cubic graph, then either $|V\Gamma| \le 90$, or $\Gamma$ is a split Praeger--Xu graph, or there exist two vertices $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that the identity is the only…
For a finite group $G$, denote by $\alpha(G)$ the minimum number of vertices of any graph $\Gamma$ having $\text{Aut}(\Gamma)\cong G$. In this paper, we prove that $\alpha(G)\leq |G|$, with specified exceptions. The exceptions include four…
