The subdirect product of two finite groups $A$ and $B$ is defined as a subgroup of the direct product $A \times B$, which is a well-known notion in finite group theory. While it is clear that, under appropriate choices of sets of generators…

In an early work from 1896, Maschke established the complete list of all finite planar Cayley graphs. This result initiated a long line of research over the next century, aiming at characterizing in a similar way all planar infinite Cayley…

We introduce a notion of Ricci curvature for Cayley graphs that can be thought of as "medium-scale" because it is neither infinitesimal nor asymptotic, but based on a chosen finite radius parameter. We argue that it gives the foundation for…

Given a $p$-adic group $G$ equipped with an action of a finite group $\Gamma\subset\mathrm{Aut}_F(\mathbf{G})$, and a reductive fixed-point subgroup $G^\Gamma$, we establish a relationship between constructions of types for these two groups…

We describe a technique to determine the automorphism group of a geometrically represented graph, by understanding the structure of the induced action on all geometric representations. Using this, we characterize automorphism groups of…

Efficiency of routing on a regular digraph often involves finding opitmal properties of the graph. For example, the diameter of a digraph is the maximum distance between any two vertices. We show how we can study these problems…

We prove that any non-amenable Cayley graph admits a factor of IID perfect matching. We also show that any connected d-regular vertex tran- sitive graph admits a perfect matching. The two results together imply that every Cayley graph…

Let $\Gamma_d(q)$ denote the group whose Cayley graph with respect to a particular generating set is the Diestel-Leader graph $DL_d(q)$, as described by Bartholdi, Neuhauser and Woess. We compute both $Aut(\Gamma_d(q))$ and…

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…

For a finite group $G$ and an inverse-closed generating set $C$ of $G$, let $Aut(G;C)$ consist of those automorphisms of $G$ which leave $C$ invariant. We define an $Aut(G;C)$-invariant normal subgroup $\Phi(G;C)$ of $G$ which has the…

Autostackability for finitely presented groups is a topological property of the Cayley graph combined with formal language theoretic restrictions, that implies solvability of the word problem. The class of autostackable groups is known to…

We introduce shortcut graphs and groups. Shortcut graphs are graphs in which cycles cannot embed without metric distortion. Shortcut groups are groups which act properly and cocompactly on shortcut graphs. These notions unify a surprisingly…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple connect graph on a finite vertex set $V$ and let $A$ be its adjacency matrix. Then $\Gamma$ is said to be \textit{singular} if and only if $0$ is an eigenvalue of $A.$ The \textit{nullity (singularity)} of $\Gamma,$…

A Cayley graph $\Cay(G,S)$ is said to be inner-automorphic if $S$ is a union of conjugacy classes of a group $G$, and arc-transitive if its full automorphism group acts transitively on the set of arcs. In this paper, we characterize four…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $k$-integral graphs. A graph $\Gamma$ is called $k$-integral if the extension degree of the splitting field of the characteristic polynomial of $\Gamma$ over rational field $\mathbb Q$ is equal to…

A graph $\Gamma$ is a bi-Cayley graph over a group $G$ if $G$ is a semiregular group of automorphisms of $\Gamma$ having two orbits. Let $G$ be a non-abelian metacyclic $p$-group for an odd prime $p$, and let $\Gamma$ be a connected…

Let $\Sigma=(\Gamma, \sigma)$ is a signed graph(or sigraph in short), where $\Gamma$ is a underlying graph of $\Sigma$ and $\sigma:E\longrightarrow \{+, -\}$ is a function. Consider $\Gamma=Cay(\mathbb{Z}_{p_{1}}\times…

These lecture notes provide an introduction to automorphism groups of graphs. Some special families of graphs are then discussed, especially the families of Cayley graphs generated by transposition sets.

Hughes defined a class of groups that act as local similarities on compact ultrametric spaces. Guba and Sapir had previously defined braided diagram groups over semigroup presentations. The two classes of groups share some common…

This paper introduces a notion of presentation for locally inverse semigroups and develops a graph structure to describe the elements of locally inverse semigroups given by these presentations. These graphs will have a role similar to the…
