The literature on word-representable graphs is quite rich, and a number of variations of the original definition have been proposed over the years. We are initiating a systematic study of such variations based on formal languages. In our…

Infinite analogues of the Paley graphs are constructed, based on uncountably many infinite but locally finite fields. Weil's estimate for character sums shows that they are all isomorphic to the random or universal graph of Erd\H os,…

By analogy with the Cayley graph of a group with respect to a finite generating set or the Cayley--Abels graph of a totally disconnected, locally compact group, we detail countable connected graphs associated to Polish groups that we term…

We introduce the notion of graphical discreteness to group theory. A finitely generated group is graphically discrete if whenever it acts geometrically on a locally finite graph, the automorphism group of the graph is compact-by-discrete.…

In this note we show that there is a cubic graph of girth $5$ that is not a subgraph of any minimal Cayley graph. On the other hand, we show that any Generalized Petersen Graph $G(n,k)$ with $\gcd(n,k)=1$ is an induced subgraph of a minimal…

Let $G$ be a dense graph with good expansion properties and not too close to being bipartite. Let $\boldsymbol d$ be a graphical degree sequence. Under very weak conditions, we find the number of subgraphs of $G$ with degree sequence…

Let $R$ be a group and let $S$ be a subset of $R$. The Haar graph $\mathrm{Haar}(R,S)$ of $R$ with connection set $S$ is the graph having vertex set $R\times\{-1,1\}$, where two distinct vertices $(x,-1)$ and $(y,1)$ are declared to be…

For every infinite sequence $\omega=x_1,x_2,...$, with $x_i\in\{0,1\}$, we construct an infinite 4-regular graph $X_{\omega}$. These graphs are precisely the Schreier graphs of the action of a certain self-similar group on the space…

The article deals with the problem of finding vertex-minimal graphs with a given automorphism group. We exhibit two undirected $16$-vertex graphs having automorphism groups $A_{4}$ and $A_{5}$. It improves the Babai's bound for $A_{4}$ and…

Given a group $\Gamma$, we establish a connection between the unitarisability of its uniformly bounded representations and the asymptotic behaviour of the isoperimetric constants of Cayley graphs of $\Gamma$ for increasingly large…

Given a finite connected simple graph $\Gamma$, and a subgroup $G$ of its automorphism group, a general method for finding all finite abelian regular coverings of $\Gamma$ that admit a lift of each element of $G$ is developed. As an…

In this paper, we determine the reduced automorphism groups of hyperelliptic curves of a small genus in characteristic $2$, when they are of $2$-rank $0$. Such a curve is an Artin-Schreier curve defined in the form $y^2-y=f(x)$ for a…

One of the central results in the representation theory of distance-regular graphs classifies distance-regular graphs with $\mu\geq 2$ and second largest eigenvalue $\theta_1= b_1-1$. In this paper we give a classification under the…

We develop a new method for enumerating independent sets of a fixed size in general graphs, and we use this method to show that a conjecture of Engbers and Galvin holds for all but finitely many graphs. We also use our method to prove…

The complete transposition graph is defined to be the graph whose vertices are the elements of the symmetric group $S_n$, and two vertices $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are adjacent in this graph iff there is some transposition $(i,j)$ such that…

We investigate Cayley graphs of graph products by showing that graph products with vertex groups that have isomorphic Cayley graphs yield isomorphic Cayley graphs.

A new family of strongly regular graphs, called the general symplectic graphs $Sp(2\nu, q)$, associated with nonsingular alternate matrices is introduced. Their parameters as strongly regular graphs, their chromatic numbers as well as their…

The isomorphism problem for digraphs is a fundamental problem in graph theory. This problem for Cayley digraphs has been extensively investigated over the last half a century. In this paper, we consider this problem for $m$-Cayley digraphs…

We determine the maximum number of maximal independent sets of arbitrary graphs in terms of their covering numbers and we completely characterize the extremal graphs. As an application, we give a similar result for K\"onig-Egerv\'ary graphs…

We pursue the study of $\mathrm L^1$ full groups of graphings and of the closures of their derived groups, which we call derived $\mathrm L^1$ full groups. Our main result shows that aperiodic probability measure-preserving actions of…
