We investigate subsets of the symmetric group with structure similar to that of a graph. The trees of these subsets correspond to minimal conjugate generating sets of the symmetric group. There are two main theorems in this paper. The first…

We present two results on expansion of Cayley graphs. The first result settles a conjecture made by DeVos and Mohar. Specifically, we prove that for any positive constant $c$ there exists a finite connected subset $A$ of the Cayley graph of…

Let $s$ be a positive integer. Our goal is to find all finite abelian groups $G$ that contain a $2$-subset $A$ for which the undirected Cayley graph $\Gamma(G,A)$ has diameter at most $s$. We provide a complete answer when $G$ is cyclic,…

In this paper, generalized Cayley graphs are studied. It is proved that every generalized Cayley graph of order 2p is a Cayley graph, where p is a prime. Special attention is given to generalized Cayley graphs on Abelian groups. It is…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $n$. For any subset $B$ of $G$ with $B=-B$, the Cayley graph $G_B$ is a graph on vertex set $G$ in which $ij$ is an edge if and only if $i-j\in B.$ It was shown by Ben Green that when $G$ is a…

Let $\Gamma_n$ be the complete undirected Cayley graph of the odd cyclic group $Z_n$. Connected graphs whose vertices are rainbow tetrahedra in $\Gamma_n$ are studied, with any two such vertices adjacent if and only if they share (as…

Sidorenko's conjecture asserts that every bipartite graph $H$ has the property that, for any host graph $G$, the homomorphism density from $H$ to $G$ is asymptotically at least as large as in a quasirandom graph with the same edge density…

This paper deals with the Cayley graph $\Cay,$ where the generating set consists of all block transpositions. A motivation for the study of these particular Cayley graphs comes from current research in Bioinformatics. We prove that…

Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ elements, and $\Sigma\subseteq S_{n}$ a symmetric subset of permutations. Aldous' spectral gap conjecture, proved by Caputo, Liggett and Richthammer [arXiv:0906.1238], states that if $\Sigma$ is a…

We show that for certain integers $n$, the problem of whether or not a Cayley digraph $\Gamma$ of $\mathbb Z_n$ is also isomorphic to a Cayley digraph of some other abelian group $G$ of order $n$ reduces to the question of whether or not a…

Let d = (d1, d2, ..., dn) be a vector of non-negative integers with even sum. We prove some basic facts about the structure of a random graph with degree sequence d, including the probability of a given subgraph or induced subgraph.…

Frankl's union-closed sets conjecture states that in every finite union-closed set of sets, there is an element that is contained in at least half of the member-sets (provided there are at least two members). The conjecture has an…

We estimate the number of graphical regular representations (GRRs) of a given group with large enough order. As a consequence, we show that almost all finite Cayley graphs have full automorphism groups 'as small as possible'. This confirms…

For a digraph $\Gamma$, if $F$ is the smallest field that contains all roots of the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$, then $F$ is called the splitting field of $\Gamma$. The extension degree of $F$ over the…

A graph $\Ga=(V,E)$ is called a Cayley graph of some group $T$ if the automorphism group $\Aut(\Ga)$ contains a subgroup $T$ which acts on regularly on $V$. If the subgroup $T$ is normal in $\Aut(\Ga)$ then $\Ga$ is called a normal Cayley…

Let us say that a Cayley graph $\Gamma$ of a group $G$ of order $n$ is a Cerny Cayley graph if every synchronizing automaton containing $\Gamma$ as a subgraph with the same vertex set admits a synchronizing word of length at most $(n-1)^2$.…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, written additively, and $H$ a subgroup of~$G$. The \emph{subgroup sum graph} $\Gamma_{G,H}$ is the graph with vertex set $G$, in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are joined if $x+y\in…

A total perfect code in a graph $\Gamma$ is a subset $C$ of $V(\Gamma)$ such that every vertex of $\Gamma$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $C$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a conjugation-closed subset of a group to…

An n-vertex graph is called C-Ramsey if it has no clique or independent set of size C log n. All known constructions of Ramsey graphs involve randomness in an essential way, and there is an ongoing line of research towards showing that in…

We prove that every bipartite graph of sufficiently large average degree has either a $K_{t,t}$-subgraph or an induced subgraph of average degree at least $t$ and girth at least $6$. We conjecture that "$6$" can be replaced by "$k$", which…
