The complexity of a finite connected graph is its number of spanning trees; for a non-connected graph it is the product of complexities of its connected components. If $G$ is an infinite graph with cofinite free ${\mathbb Z}^d$-symmetry,…
Using the theoretical basis developed by Yao and Zeilberger, we consider certain graph families whose structure results in a rational generating function for sequences related to spanning tree enumeration. Said families are Powers of Cycles…
It is shown that there are groups $\Gamma$ with finite generating sets $S$ such that the adjacency operator of the Cayley graph ${\rm Cay}(\Gamma,S)$ is a disjoint union of $N$ intervals, for arbitrarily large integers $N$.
A number of authors have studied the question of when a graph can be represented as a Cayley graph on more than one nonisomorphic group. The work to date has focussed on a few special situations: when the groups are $p$-groups; when the…
Using the method of spectral decimation and a modified version of Kirchhoffs Matrix-Tree Theorem, a closed form solution to the number of spanning trees on approximating graphs to a fully symmetric self-similar structure on a finitely…
The vertices of the Cayley graph of a finitely generated semigroup form a set of sites which can be labeled by elements of a finite alphabet in a manner governed by a nonnegative real interaction matrix, respecting nearest neighbor…
A Cayley graph of a group $H$ is a finite simple graph $\Gamma$ such that its automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(\Gamma)$ contains a subgroup isomorphic to $H$ acting regularly on $V(\Gamma)$, while a Haar graph of $H$ is a finite simple…
This article lays the foundations for an analogue of geometric group theory that studies actions on graphs by right quasigroups, including racks and quandles. We study markings of graphs that realize racks, and we introduce (di)graph…
We construct an infinite family of connected, 2-generated Cayley digraphs Cay(G;a,b) that do not have hamiltonian paths, such that the orders of the generators a and b are arbitrarily large. We also prove that if G is any finite group with…
We investigate subsets of the symmetric group with structure similar to that of a graph. The trees of these subsets correspond to minimal conjugate generating sets of the symmetric group. There are two main theorems in this paper. The first…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $S$ be an inverse-closed subset of $G$ not containing the identity. The Cayley graph $\mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$ has vertex set $G$, where two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x^{-1}y \in S$.…
Quasi-strongly regular graphs form a significant generalization of strongly regular graphs. We study the eigenvalues of a family of such graphs, $\Gamma_H(G)$, constructed from a finite group $G$ and a subgroup $H$. Our main results include…
It is shown that a flat subgroup, $H$, of the totally disconnected, locally compact group $G$ decomposes into a finite number of subsemigroups on which the scale function is multiplicative. The image, $P$, of a multiplicative semigroup in…
In this paper, we introduce a new family of graphs, $\Gamma(n,a)$. We show that it is an infinite family of tetravalent half-transitive Cayley graphs. Apart from that, we determine some structural properties of $\Gamma(n,a)$.
We apply spectral analysis of quotients of the Bruhat-Tits buildings of type $\tilde{A}_{d-1}$ to construct isospectral non-isomorphic Cayley graphs of the finite simple groups $\operatorname{PSL}_d({\mathbb F}_q)$ for every $d \geq 5$ ($d…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Cayley graph of the permutation group generated by a transposition tree $T$ on $n$ vertices. In an oft-cited paper \cite{Akers:Krishnamurthy:1989} (see also \cite{Hahn:Sabidussi:1997}), it is shown that the diameter of the…
Using a Cayley complex (generalizing the Cayley graph) and Clifford algebras, we are able to give, for a large class of finitely presented groups, a uniform construction of spectral triples with $D_{+}$ of index 1.
We compute the complexity of two infinite families of finite graphs: the Sierpi\'{n}ski graphs, which are finite approximations of the well-known Sierpi\'nsky gasket, and the Schreier graphs of the Hanoi Towers group $H^{(3)}$ acting on the…
The complexity of a graph is the number of its labeled spanning trees. In this work complexity is studied in settings that admit regular graphs. An exact formula is established linking complexity of the complement of a regular graph to…
In this paper we are interested in the asymptotic enumeration of Cayley graphs. It has previously been shown that almost every Cayley digraph has the smallest possible automorphism group: that is, it is a digraphical regular representation…
