A linear algebraic group G is over a field K is called a Cayley K-group if it admits a Cayley map, i.e., a G-equivariant K-birational isomorphism between the group variety G and its Lie algebra. We classify real reductive algebraic groups…

A graph is \textit{rigid} if it only admits the identity endomorphism. We show that for every $d\ge 3$ there exist infinitely many mutually rigid $d$-regular graphs of arbitrary odd girth $g\geq 7$. Moreover, we determine the minimum order…

A characterization is given of finite groups $H$ that have skew-morphisms of order coprime to the order $|H|$, and their skew-morphisms. A complete classification is then given of the automorphism groups and the underlying graphs of…

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…

If $G$ is a group of permutations of a set $\Omega$, then the suborbits of $G$ are the orbits of point-stabilisers $G_\alpha$ acting on $\Omega$. The cardinalities of these suborbits are the subdegrees of $G$. Every infinite primitive…

In this paper, we construct a family of quasi-strongly regular Cayley graphs $\Gamma_H(G)$ which is defined on a finite group $G$ with respect to a subgroup $H$ of $G$. We also compute its full automorphism group and characterize various…

A Cayley graph over a group $G$ is said to be central if its connection set is a normal subset of $G$. We prove that every central Cayley graph over a simple group $G$ has at most two pairwise nonequivalent Cayley representations over $G$…

The search for the smallest possible $d$-regular graph of girth $g$ has a long history, and is usually known as the cage problem. This problem has a natural extension to hypergraphs, where we may ask for the smallest number of vertices in a…

We study the automorphisms of a Cayley graph that preserve its natural edge-colouring. More precisely, we are interested in groups G, such that every such automorphism of every connected Cayley graph on G has a very simple form: the…

In this article, we study connections between components of the Cayley graph $\mathrm{Cay}(G,A)$, where $A$ is an arbitrary subset of a group $G$, and cosets of the subgroup of $G$ generated by $A$. In particular, we show how to construct…

The unitary Cayley graph $C_R$ of a finite unital ring $R$ is the simple graph with vertex set $R$ in which two elements $x$ and $y$ are connected by an edge if and only if $x-y$ is a unit of $R$. We characterize the unitary Cayley graph…

We express the discrete Ricci curvature of a graph as the minimal eigenvalue of a family of matrices, one for each vertex of a graph whose entries depend on the local adjaciency structure of the graph. Using this method we compute or bound…

We study the problem of finding a subgroup of a given order in a finite group, where the group is represented by its Cayley table. We analyze the complexity of the problem in the special case of abelian groups and present an optimal…

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…
