Suppose that $D=(V,E)$ is a strongly connected digraph. Let $u,v\in V(D)$. The maximum distance $md (u,v)$ is defined as $md(u,v)$=max\{$\overrightarrow{d}(u,v), \overrightarrow{d}(v,u)$\} where $\overrightarrow{d}(u,v)$ denote the length…

Let $G$ denote a $Q$-polynomial distance-regular graph with diameter $D$ at least 4. Assume that the intersection numbers of $G$ satisfy $a_i=0$ for $0 \leq i \leq D-1$ and $a_D\neq 0$. We show that $G$ is a polygon, a folded cube, or an…

Graphs on integer points of polytopes whose edges come from a set of allowed differences are studied. It is shown that any simple graph can be embedded in that way. The minimal dimension of such a representation is the fiber dimension of…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of order $q$ and $E\subset \mathbb{F}_q^d$, where $4|d$. Using Fourier analytic techniques, we prove that if $|E|>\frac{q^{d-1}}{d}\binom{d}{d/2}\binom{d/2}{d/4}$, then the points of $E$ determine a…

For finite reflection groups of types A and B, we determine the diameter of the graph whose vertices are reduced words for the longest element and whose edges are braid relations. This is deduced from a more general theorem that applies to…
