Strongly regular graphs (SRGs) are highly symmetric combinatorial objects, with connections to many areas of mathematics including finite fields, finite geometries, and number theory. One can construct an SRG via the Cayley Graph of a…
From the point of view of discrete geometry, the class of locally finite transitive graphs is a wide and important one. The subclass of Cayley graphs is of particular interest, as testifies the development of geometric group theory. Recall…
We construct a polynomial-time algorithm that given a graph $X$ with $4p$ vertices ($p$ is prime), finds (if any) a Cayley representation of $X$ over the group $C_2\times C_2\times C_p$. This result, together with the known similar result…
The k-th power D^k of a directed graph D is defined to be the directed graph on the vertices of D with an arc from a to b in D^k iff one can get from a to b in D with exactly k steps. This notion is equivalent to the k-fold composition of…
A necessary condition for a Cayley digraph Cay$(R,S)$ to be a regular representation is that there are no non-trivial group automorphisms of $R$ that fix $S$ setwise. A group is DRR-detecting or GRR-detecting if this condition is also…
A graph is called a GRR if its automorphism group acts regularly on its vertex-set. Such a graph is necessarily a Cayley graph. Godsil has shown that there are only two infinite families of finite groups that do not admit GRRs : abelian…
Metacirculants are a basic and well-studied family of vertex-transitive graphs, and weak metacirculants are generalizations of them. A graph is called a weak metacirculant if it has a vertex-transitive metacyclic automorphism group. This…
The paper constructs an infinite sequence of strongly regular directed graphs. The construction is based on representing adjacency matrices as block matrices composed of circulant blocks, together with the use of a compactification…
S. Bera (Line graph characterization of power graphs of finite nilpotent groups, \textit{Communication in Algebra}, 50(11), 4652-4668, 2022) characterized finite nilpotent groups whose power graphs and proper power graphs are line graphs.…
We study directed random graphs (random graphs whose edges are directed) as they evolve in discrete time by the addition of nodes and edges. For two distinct evolution strategies, one that forces the graph to a condition of near acyclicity…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\text{cd}(G)$ denote the character degree set for $G$. The prime graph $\Delta(G)$ is a simple graph whose vertex set consists of prime divisors of elements in $\text{cd}(G)$, denoted $\rho(G)$. Two primes…
In this paper we introduce and study a type of Cayley graph -- subnormal Cayley graph. We prove that a subnormal 2-arc transitive Cayley graph is a normal Cayley graph or a normal cover of a complete bipartite graph $K_{p^d,p^d}$ with $p$…
A directed dominating set in a directed graph $D$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $V$ such that every vertex $u \in V(D) \setminus S$ has an adjacent vertex $v$ in $S$ with $v$ directed to $u$. The directed domination number of $D$, denoted by…
Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs with arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case where such graphs are bipartite and in which the undirected and directed degrees are one. The best graphs,…
A finite group $G$ is called a DCI-group if two Cayley digraphs over $G$ are isomorphic if and only if their connection sets are conjugate by a group automorphism. We prove that the group $C_4\times C_p^2$, where $p$ is a prime, is a…
We study the girth of Cayley graphs of finite classical groups G on random sets of generators. Our main tool is an essentially best possible bound we obtain on the probability that a given word w takes the value 1 when evaluated in G in…
We describe the full automorphism group of the directed reduced power graph and the undirected reduced power graph of a finite group. We compute the full automorphism groups of these graphs of several classes of finite groups. Also, we…
Using Cayley graphs and Clifford algebras, we are able to give, for every finitely generated groups, a uniform construction of spectral triples with a generically non-trivial phase for the Dirac operator. Unfortunatly $D_{+}$ is index $0$,…
In 2011, Fang et al. in (J. Combin. Theory A 118 (2011) 1039-1051) posed the following problem: Classify non-normal locally primitive Cayley graphs of finite simple groups of valency $d$, where either $d\leq 20$ or $d$ is a prime number.…
If $\Gamma$ is a graph for which every edge is in exactly one clique of order $\omega$, then one can form a new graph with vertex set equal to these cliques. This is a generalization of the line graph of $\Gamma$. We discover many general…
