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…

For a graph $\Gamma$, the multiplicity of the eigenvalue $0$, denoted by $\eta(\Gamma)$, is called the nullity of $\Gamma$. Also the energy of $\Gamma$, denoted by $\mathcal{E}(\Gamma)$, is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the…

Let $G$ be a simple graph and let $\nu(G)$ be the matching number of $G$. It is well-known that $\reg I(G) \leqslant \nu(G)+1$. In this paper we show that $\reg I(G) = \nu(G)+1$ if and only if every connected component of $G$ is either a…

A Cayley graph $\Ga=\Cay(G,S)$ is said to be normal if $G$ is normal in $\Aut\Ga$. The concept of normal Cayley graphs was first proposed by M.Y.Xu in [Discrete Math. 182, 309-319, 1998] and it plays an important role in determining the…

Let $\Gamma=\mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$ be a Cayley digraph on a group $G$ and let $A=\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$. The Cayley index of $\Gamma$ is $|A:G|$. It has previously been shown that, if $p$ is a prime, $G$ is a cyclic $p$-group and $A$ contains a…

Let $S, K$ be two subrings of a finite ring $R$. Then the generalized non-commuting graph of subrings $S, K$ of $R$, denoted by $\Gamma_{S, K}$, is a simple graph whose vertex set is $(S \cup K) \setminus (C_K(S) \cup C_S(K))$ and two…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a bipartite graph with vertex set $X$, color partitions $Y$, $Y'$, and assume that every vertex in $Y$ has eccentricity $D\ge 3$. For $z\in X$ and a non-negative integer $i$, let $\Gamma_{i}(z)$ denote the set of…

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$, whose minimum vertex degree is at least $k$. A subset $S$ of vertices in $G$ is a $k$-tuple total dominating set if every vertex of $G$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $S$. The minimum…

Relying on the Classification of Finite Simple Groups it was shown by Feng and Xu (Discrete Math., 2005) that every quartic Cayley graph of a regular $p$-group, $p \neq 2,5$, is normal. In this paper a CFSG-free proof of Feng-Xu theorem is…
