We present a novel construction of finite groupoids whose Cayley graphs have large girth even w.r.t. a discounted distance measure that contracts arbitrarily long sequences of edges from the same colour class (sub-groupoid), and only counts…

There are many variations on partition functions for graph homomorphisms or colorings. The case considered here is a counting or hard constraint problem in which the range or color graph carries a free and vertex transitive Abelian group…

In this paper, we study the metric dimension of Cayley graphs. Specially, we present a complete characterization of Cayley graphs on Abelian groups whose metric dimension is two.

Motivated by colouring minimal Cayley graphs, in 1978, Babai conjectured that no-lonely-colour graphs have bounded chromatic number. We disprove this in a strong sense by constructing graphs of arbitrarily large girth and chromatic number…

In this paper we introduce a Cayley-type graph for group-subgroup pairs and present some elementary properties of such graphs, including connectedness, their degree and partition structure, and vertex-transitivity. We relate these…

A packing $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ into $k$ disjoint non-empty classes $V_1, \dots, V_k$, such that if $u,v \in V_i$, $i\in [k]$, $u\ne v$, then the distance between $u$ and $v$ is greater than $i$. The packing…

The computational cost of simulating quantum many-body systems can often be reduced by taking advantage of physical symmetries. While methods exist for specific symmetry classes, a general algorithm to find the full permutation symmetry…

We show that given an arbitrary set of four plane unit vectors $v_1, v_2, v_3, v_4$, the Cayley graph generated by $\{\pm v_1, \pm v_2, \pm v_3, \pm v_4\}$ is always $3$-colorable. Indeed, we show that this is a specific case of a much more…

Permutations on a set, endowed with function composition, build a group called a symmetric group. In addition to their algebraic structure, symmetric groups have two metrics that are of particular interest to us here: the Cayley distance…

We define several new types of quantum chromatic numbers of a graph and characterise them in terms of operator system tensor products. We establish inequalities between these chromatic numbers and other parameters of graphs studied in the…

We study bipartite distance-regular Cayley graphs with diameter three or four. We give sufficient conditions under which a bipartite Cayley graph can be constructed on the semidirect product of a group -- the part of this bipartite Cayley…

We show that almost all circulant graphs have automorphism groups as small as possible. Of the circulant graphs that do not have automorphism group as small as possible, we give some families of integers such that it is not true that almost…

We investigate the use of labelled graphs as a Morita equivalence invariant for inverse semigroups. We construct a labelled graph from a combinatorial inverse semigroup $S$ with $0$ admitting a special set of idempotent $\mathcal{D}$-class…

For $m \geq 3$ and $n \geq 1$, the $m$-cycle book graph $B(m,n)$ consists of $n$ copies of the cycle $C_m$ with one common edge. In this paper, we prove that (a) the number of switching non-isomorphic signed $B(m,n)$ is $n+1$, and (b) the…

In earlier work the Kauffman bracket polynomial was extended to an invariant of marked graphs, i.e., looped graphs whose vertices have been partitioned into two classes (marked and not marked). The marked-graph bracket polynomial is readily…
