Suppose that R is an ordered ring, G_n(R) is a subsemigroup of $GL_n(R)$, consisting of all matrices with nonnegative elements. A.V. Mikhalev and M.A. Shatalova described all automorphisms of G_n(R), where R is a linearly ordered skewfield…

In this paper we show that almost all Cayley digraphs have automorphism group as small as possible; that is, they are digraphical regular representations (DRRs). More precisely, we show that as $r$ tends to infinity, for every finite group…

A group $G$ has a Frobenius graphical representation (GFR) if there is a simple graph $\varGamma$ whose full automorphism group is isomorphic to $G$ and it acts on vertices as a Frobenius group. In particular, any group $G$ with GFR is a…

We prove that every vertex transitive, planar, 1-ended, graph covers every graph whose balls of radius r are isomorphic to the ball of radius r in G for a sufficiently large r. We ask whether this is a general property of finitely presented…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated group acting faithfully and properly discontinuously by homeomorphisms on a planar surface $X \subseteq \mathbb{S}^2$. We prove that $G$ admits such an action that is in addition co-compact, provided we can…

This thesis concerns the study of homogeneous factorisations of complete graphs with edge-transitive factors. A factorisation of a complete graph $K_n$ is a partition of its edges into disjoint classes. Each class of edges in a…

For each of the 14 classes of edge-transitive maps described by Graver and Watkins, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a group to be the automorphism group of a map, or of an orientable map without boundary, in that class.…

We prove that if $G$ and $H$ are primitive strongly regular graphs with the same parameters and $\varphi$ is a homomorphism from $G$ to $H$, then $\varphi$ is either an isomorphism or a coloring (homomorphism to a complete subgraph).…

A \emph{self-complementary} graph is a graph isomorphic to its complement. An isomorphism between $G$ and its complement, viewed as a permutation of $V(G)$, is then called an \emph{antimorphism}. A \emph{skew partition} of $G$ is a…

The reconfiguration graph of the $k$-colorings of a graph $G$, denoted $R_{k}(G)$, is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-colorings of $G$ and two colorings are adjacent in $R_{k}(G)$ if they differ in color on exactly one vertex. A graph…

We study subsets $T$ consisting of some transpositions $(i,j)$ of the symmetric group $S_n$ on $\{1,\dots,n\}$ such that the Cayley graph $\Gamma_T:=Cay(S_n,T)$ is an integral graph, i.e., all eigenvalues of an adjacency matrix of…

This paper proves a commutative algebraic extension of a generalized Skolem-Mahler-Lech theorem due to the first author. Let $A$ be a finitely generated commutative $K$-algebra over a field of characteristic $0$, and let $\sigma$ be a…

A 2-edge-coloured graph $G$ is called {\bf locally complete} if for each vertex $v$, the vertices adjacent to $v$ through edges of the same colour induce a complete subgraph in $G$. Locally complete 2-edge-coloured graphs have nice…

We show that generic automorphisms of stable groups are supertight in a strong sense. In particular, we obtain the existence of supertight automorphisms. We also answer a question concerning the relationship between supertight automorphisms…

The partial automorphisms of a graph $X$ having $N$ vertices are the bijections $\sigma:I\to J$ with $I,J\subset\{1,\ldots,N\}$ which leave invariant the edges. These bijections form a semigroup $\widetilde{G}(X)$, which contains the…

The famous List Colouring Conjecture from the 1970s states that for every graph $G$ the chromatic index of $G$ is equal to its list chromatic index. In 1996 in a seminal paper, Kahn proved that the List Colouring Conjecture holds…

The purpose of this note is to define a graph whose vertex set is a finite group $G$, whose edge set is contained in that of the commuting graph of $G$ and contains the enhanced power graph of $G$. We call this graph the deep commuting…

Comparability graphs are graphs which have transitive orientations. The dimension of a poset is the least number of linear orders whose intersection gives this poset. The dimension ${\rm dim}(X)$ of a comparability graph $X$ is the…

Let $G$ be a group and $S\subseteq G$ its subset such that $S=S^{-1}$, where $S^{-1}=\{s^{-1}\mid s\in S\}$. Then {\it the Cayley graph ${\rm Cay}(G,S)$} is an undirected graph $\Gamma$ with the vertex set $V(\Gamma)=G$ and the edge set…

This paper represents a significant leap forward in the problem of enumerating vertex-transitive graphs. Recent breakthroughs on symmetry of Cayley (di)graphs show that almost all finite Cayley (di)graphs have the smallest possible…
