Among other things, it is shown that for every pair of positive integers $r$, $d$, satisfying $1<r<d\leq 2r$, and every finite simple graph $H,$ there is a connected graph $G$ with diameter $d$, radius $r$, and center $H.$

For a graph $\Gamma$, a positive integer $s$ and a subgroup $G\leq \Aut(\Gamma)$, we prove that $G$ is transitive on the set of $s$-arcs of $\Gamma$ if and only if $\Gamma$ has girth at least $2(s-1)$ and $G$ is transitive on the set of…

Bidirected graphs are multigraphs where every edge has an independent direction at each end. In the paper, with an arbitrary bidirected graph we associate a non-negative integral quadratic form (called the incidence form of the graph), and…

We consider two possible extensions of a theorem of Thomassen characterizing the graphs admitting a 2-vertex-connected orientation. First, we show that the problem of deciding whether a mixed graph has a 2-vertex-connected orientation is…

Mixed graphs can be seen as digraphs with arcs and edges (or digons, that is, two opposite arcs). In this paper, we consider the case where such graphs are bipartite and in which the undirected and directed degrees are one. The best graphs,…

For a finite group $G$ and for a fixed positive integer $k$, $k\geq 2$, the $k$-power graph of $G$ is an undirected simple graph with vertex set $G$ in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x^k=y$ or $y^k=x$.…

The $k$-token graph $F_k(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of vertices from $G$, two of which being adjacent whenever their symmetric difference is a pair of adjacent vertices in $G$. It is a known result…

In this paper we determine partial answers to the question given in the title, thereby significantly extending results of Broere and Hattingh. We characterize completely those pairs of complete graphs whose tensor products are circulant. We…

A graph $\Gamma$ is basic if Aut$\Gamma$ has no normal subgroup $N\ne1$ such that $\Gamma$ is a normal cover of the normal quotient graph $\Gamma_N$. In this paper, we completely determine the basic normal quotient graphs of all connected…

A graph G is called (2k, k)-connected if G is 2k-edge-connected and G-v is k-edge-connected for every vertex v. The study of (2k, k)-connected graphs is motivated by a conjecture of Frank which states that a graph has a 2-vertex-connected…

Let $R$ be a noncommutative ring with identity. The commuting graph of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma(R)$, is a graph with vertex set $R \setminus Z(R)$, and two vertices $a$, $b$ are adjacent if $a\neq b$ and $ab=ba$. Let $T=Tr(R)$ be the ring of…

A class of graphs $\mathcal{C}$ is closed under powers if for every graph $G\in\mathcal{C}$ and every $k\in\mathbb{N}$, $G^k\in\mathcal{C}$. Also $\mathcal{C}$ is strongly closed under powers if for every $k\in\mathbb{N}$, if…

We show that if G is a finite group whose commutator subgroup [G,G] has order 2p, where p is an odd prime, then every connected Cayley graph on G has a hamiltonian cycle.
