In this paper we consider connected locally $G$-arc-transitive graphs with vertices of valence 3 and 4, such that the kernel $G_{uv}^{[1]}$ of the action of an edge-stabiliser on the neighourhood $\Gamma(u) \cup \Gamma(v)$ is trivial. We…

We study $(G,2)$-arc-transitive graphs for innately transitive permutation groups $G$ such that $G$ can be embedded into a wreath product $\sym\Gamma\wr\sy\ell$ acting in product action on $\Gamma^\ell$. We find two such connected graphs:…

This paper deals with finite cubic ($3$-regular) graphs whose automorphism group acts transitively on the edges of the graph. Such graphs split into two broad classes, namely arc-transitive and semisymmetric cubic graphs, and then these…

Let $R$ be a finite ring and $r\in R$. The $r$-noncommuting graph of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma_R^r$, is a simple undirected graph whose vertex set is $R$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $[x,y] \neq r$ and $-r$. In…

An action of a group $G$ on a set $X$ is said to be quasi-n-transitive if the diagonal action of $G$ on $X^n$ has only finitely many orbits. We show that branch groups, a special class of groups of automorphisms of rooted trees, cannot act…

Let $H$ be a normal subgroup of a group $G$. The normal subgroup based power graph $\Gamma_H(G)$ of $G$ is the simple undirected graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma_H(G))= (G\setminus H)\cup \{e\}$ and two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$. We attach to $N$ two graphs ${\Gamma}_G(N)$ and ${\Gamma}^{\ast}_G(N)$ related to the conjugacy classes of $G$ contained in $N$ and to the set of primes dividing the sizes…

Let $\Gamma=\Gamma(2n,q)$ be the dual polar graph of type $Sp(2n,q)$. Underlying this graph is a $2n$-dimensional vector space $V$ over a field ${\mathbb F}_q$ of odd order $q$, together with a symplectic (i.e. nondegenerate alternating…

A graph or hypergraph is said to be vertex-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively upon its vertices. A classic theorem of Mader asserts that every connected vertex-transitive graph is maximally edge-connected. We generalise…

We classify trivalent vertex-transitive graphs whose edge sets have a partition into a 2-factor composed of two cycles and a 1-factor that is invariant under the action of the automorphism group.

Let $\Gamma = (\Omega,E)$ be a strongly-regular graph with adjacency matrix $A_1$, and let $A_2$ be the adjacency matrix of its complement. For any vertex $\omega\in \Omega$, we define $E_{0,\omega}^*$ $E_{1,\omega}^*$ and $E_{2,\omega}^*$…

In 2019, investigation of the so-called factor-invariant cubic graphs was initiated by Alspach, Khodadadpour and Kreher. For a cubic graph $\Gamma$ and a vertex-transitive subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$, a $2$-factor $\mathcal{C}$…

The well-known characterization of two-ended groups says that every two-ended group can be split over finite subgroups which means it is isomorphic to either by a free product with amalgamation $A\ast_C B$ or an HNN-extension $\ast_{\phi}…

Let $\Gamma$ be a group of type rotating automorphisms of a building $\cB$ of type $\widetilde A_2$, and suppose that $\Gamma$ acts freely and transitively on the vertex set of $\cB$. The apartments of $\cB$ are tiled by triangles, labelled…

A graph is vertex-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively on vertices of the graph. A vertex-transitive graph is a Cayley graph if its automorphism group contains a subgroup acting regularly on its vertices. In this paper,…

Let $\Gamma$ be an undirected and simple graph. A set $ S $ of vertices in $\Gamma$ is called a {cyclic vertex cutset} of $\Gamma$ if $\Gamma - S$ is disconnected and has at least two components containing cycles. If $\Gamma$ has a cyclic…

We study the geometry and dynamics of discrete subgroups $\Gamma$ of $\PSL(3,\mathbb{C})$ with an open invariant set $\Omega \subset \PC^2$ where the action is properly discontinuous and the quotient $\Omega/\Gamma$ contains a connected…

A transitive graph is 2-dimensional if it can be represented as the intersection of two linear orders. Such representations make answering of reachability queries trivial, and allow many problems that are NP-hard on arbitrary graphs to be…

Let $G$ be $2$-generated group. The generating graph of $\Gamma(G)$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if $G=\langle g,h\rangle$. This graph encodes the combinatorial…
