We prove that every cyclically 4-edge-connected cubic graph that can be embedded in the projective plane, with the single exception of the Petersen graph, is 3-edge-colorable. In other words, the only (non-trivial) snark that can be…

Motivated by the Cauchy-Davenport theorem for sumsets, and its interpretation in terms of Cayley graphs, we prove the following main result : There is a universal constant e > 0 such that, if G is a connected, regular graph on n vertices,…

In this work, we explore edge direction, transitivity, and connectedness of Cayley graphs of gyrogroups. More specifically, we find conditions for a Cayley graph of a gyrogroup to be undirected, transitive, and connected. We also show a…

Monsky proved that a square cannot be dissected into an odd number of triangles of equal area. Stein conjectured that the same holds for any polygon whose edges can be paired into parallel and equal-length segments. We prove Stein's…

We provide a unique decomposition of every 4-connected graph into parts that are either quasi-5-connected, cycles of triangle-torsos and 3-connected torsos on $\leq 5$ vertices, generalised double-wheels, or thickened $K_{4,m}$'s. The…

A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $k$ edges is $t$-edge-balanced if every graph on $n$ vertices with $t$ edges is contained in exactly the same number of subgraphs of $K_n$ isomorphic to $G$. Despite the existence of infinite families of…

Let $G$ be a group and let $S$ be an inverse-closed and identity-free generating set of $G$. The \emph{Cayley graph} $\Cay(G,S)$ has vertex-set $G$ and two vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent if and only if $uv^{-1}\in S$. Let $CAY_d(n)$ be…

We announce results about flat (linkless) embeddings of graphs in 3-space. A piecewise-linear embedding of a graph in 3-space is called {\it flat} if every circuit of the graph bounds a disk disjoint from the rest of the graph. We have…

The transposition graph $Cay(S_n,T_n)$ is the Cayley graph on the symmetric group $S_n$ generated by the set $T_n$ of all transpositions. In this paper, we show that each integer in the interval $\left[-{\lfloor(2n+1)/3 \rfloor\choose 2},…

We prove that for every $\epsilon>0$ there exists $\delta>0$ such that the following holds. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a collection of $n$ curves in the plane such that there are at most $(\frac{1}{4}-\epsilon)\frac{n^{2}}{2}$ pairs of curves…

Let G=(V,E) be a simple undirected graph. For a given set L of the real line, a function omega from E to L is called an L-flow. Given a vector gamma whose coordinates are indexed by V, we say that omega is a gamma-L-flow if for each v in V,…

In [8], the gradient conjecture of R. Thom was proven for gradient flows of analytic functions on Rn. This result means that the secant at a limit point converges, so that the flow cannot spiral forever. Once the trajectory becomes…

A theorem of Tutte states that every 4-connected non-hamiltonian graph contains $K_{3,3}$ as a minor. We strengthen this result by proving that such a graph must contain $K_{3,4}$ as a minor, thereby confirming a special case of a…

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…

The Fan-Raspaud Conjecture states that every bridgeless cubic graph has three 1-factors with empty intersection. A weaker one than this conjecture is that every bridgeless cubic graph has two 1-factors and one join with empty intersection.…

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…

We consider (smooth) solutions of the mean curvature flow of graphs over bounded domains in a Lie group free up to step two (and not necessarily nilpotent), endowed with a one parameter family of Riemannian metrics $\sigma_\e$ collapsing to…

Colouring problems arising from group-based constructions provide a natural link between combinatorics and algebra, particularly in the study of Cayley graphs and Latin squares. We introduce the notion of colouring bijections of finite…

We prove that there exists an open and dense subset of the incompressible 3-flows of class C^2 such that, if a flow in this set has a positive volume regular invariant subset with dominated splitting for the linear Poincar\'e flow, then it…

Let $G$ be an undirected graph of order $n$ and let $C_i$ be an $i$-cycle graph. $G$ is called pancyclic if $G$ contains a $C_i$ for any $i\in \{3,4,\ldots,n\}$. We show that the pancyclicity of specific Cayley graphs and the Cartesian…
