Strong cospectrality is an equivalence relation on the set of vertices of a graph that is of importance in the study of quantum state transfer in graphs. We construct families of abelian Cayley graphs in which the number of mutually…

A Cayley (resp. bi-Cayley) graph on a dihedral group is called a {\em dihedrant} (resp. {\em bi-dihedrant}). In 2000, a classification of trivalent arc-transitive dihedrants was given by Maru\v si\v c and Pisanski, and several years later,…

The authors of this paper have used the theory of Riordan matrices to introduce the notion of a Riordan graph in \cite{CJKM}. Riordan graphs are proved to have a number of interesting (fractal) properties, and they are a far-reaching…

We introduce and study a variant of the family of Johnson graphs, the Full-Flag Johnson graphs. We show that Full-Flag Johnson graphs are Cayley graphs on S_n generated by certain classes of permutations, and that they are in fact…

This paper represents a significant leap forward in the problem of enumerating vertex-transitive graphs. Recent breakthroughs on symmetry of Cayley (di)graphs show that almost all finite Cayley (di)graphs have the smallest possible…

In this paper we are interested in the asymptotic enumeration of Cayley graphs. It has previously been shown that almost every Cayley digraph has the smallest possible automorphism group: that is, it is a digraphical regular representation…

A graph is said to be a bi-Cayley graph over a group H if it admits H as a group of automorphisms acting semiregularly on its vertices with two orbits. A non-abelian group is called an inner-abelian group if all of its proper subgroups are…

A finite simple graph is called a bi-Cayley graph over a group $H$ if it has a semiregular automorphism group, isomorphic to $H,$ which has two orbits on the vertex set. Cubic vertex-transitive bi-Cayley graphs over abelian groups have been…

The class of generalized Petersen graphs was introduced by Coxeter in the 1950s. Frucht, Graver and Watkins determined the automorphism groups of generalized Petersen graphs in 1971, and much later, Nedela and \v{S}koviera and…

We prove an upper bound on the number of pairwise strongly cospectral vertices in a normal Cayley graph, in terms of the multiplicities of its eigenvalues. We use this to determine an explicit bound in Cayley graphs of $\mathbb{Z}_2^d$ and…

We investigate character degree graphs of solvable groups. In particular, we provide general results that can be used to eliminate which degree graphs can occur as solvable groups. Finally, we show a specific family of graphs cannot occur…

Quasi-strongly regular graphs form a significant generalization of strongly regular graphs. We study the eigenvalues of a family of such graphs, $\Gamma_H(G)$, constructed from a finite group $G$ and a subgroup $H$. Our main results include…

We characterize connected tetravalent graphs $\Gamma$ which admit groups $M<H$ of automorphisms such that $\Gamma$ is $M$-half-arc-transitive and $H$-arc-transitive. Examples for each case are constructed, including a counter-example to a…

We construct explicit generating sets S_n and \tilde S_n of the for the alternating and the symmetric groups, which turn the Cayley graphs C(Alt(n), S_n) and C(Sym(n), \tilde S_n) into a family of bounded degree expanders for all n. This…

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…

Let $n$ be a positive integer. For each $0\leq j \leq n-1$ we let $C_n^{j}$ denote Cayley graph for the cyclic group ${\mathbb Z}_n $ with respect to the subset $\{1, j\}$. For any such pair $(n,j)$ we compute the size of the Grothendieck…

A mixed dihedral group is a group $H$ with two disjoint subgroups $X$ and $Y$, each elementary abelian of order $2^n$, such that $H$ is generated by $X\cup Y$, and $H/H'\cong X\times Y$. In this paper, for each $n\geq 2$, we construct a…
