Let $d\geq 3$ be a fixed integer and $A$ be the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed or undirected graph on $n$ vertices. We show there exist constants $\mathfrak d>0$, \begin{align*} {\mathbb P}(\text{$A$ is singular in…

The investigation of s-arc-transitivity of digraphs can be dated back to 1989 when the third author showed that s can be arbitrarily large if the action on vertices is imprimitive. However, the situation is completely different when the…

Determining whether two graphs are structurally identical is a fundamental problem with applications spanning mathematics, computer science, chemistry, and network science. Despite decades of study, graph isomorphism remains a challenging…

Let G be an undirected graph on n vertices and let S(G) be the set of all real symmetric n x n matrices whose nonzero off-diagonal entries occur in exactly the positions corresponding to the edges of G. The inverse inertia problem for G…

In the mid-1990s, two groups of authors independently obtained classifications of vertex-transitive graphs whose order is a product of two distinct primes. In the intervening years it has become clear that there is additional information…

We present an order-theoretic approach to the study of countably infinite locally 2-arc-transitive bipartite graphs. Our approach is motivated by techniques developed by Warren and others during the study of cycle-free partial orders. We…

To solve many problems on graphs, graph traversals are used, the usual variants of which are the depth-first search and the breadth-first search. Implementing a graph traversal we consequently reach all vertices of the graph that belong to…

To determine that two given undirected graphs are isomorphic, we construct for them auxiliary graphs, using the breadth-first search. This makes capability to position vertices in each digraph with respect to each other. If the given graphs…

Determining an upper bound on $s$ for finite vertex-primitive $s$-arc-transitive digraphs has received considerable attention dating back to a question of Praeger in 1990. It was shown by Giudici and Xia that the smallest upper bound on $s$…

We show that arising out of noncmmutatve geometry is a natural family of {\em edge Laplacians} on the edges of a graph. The family includes a canonical edge Laplacian associated to the graph, extending the usual graph Laplacian on vertices,…

A (di)graph $\Gamma$ generates a commutative association scheme $\mathfrak{X}$ if and only if the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$ generates the Bose-Mesner algebra of $\mathfrak{X}$. In [17, Theorem 1.1], Monzillo and Penji\'{c} proved that,…

In a series of three papers we develop an end space theory for directed graphs. As for undirected graphs, the ends of a digraph are points at infinity to which its rays converge. Unlike for undirected graphs, some ends are joined by limit…

In a digraph $D$, an arc $e=(x,y) $ in $D$ is considered transitive if there is a path from $x$ to $y$ in $D- e$. A digraph is transitive-free if it does not contain any transitive arc. In the Transitive-free Vertex Deletion (TVD) problem,…

Orienting the edges of an undirected graph such that the resulting digraph satisfies some given constraints is a classical problem in graph theory, with multiple algorithmic applications. In particular, an $st$-orientation orients each edge…
