The commuting graph ${\Gamma(G)}$ of a group $G$ is the simple undirected graph with group elements as a vertex set and two elements $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $xy=yx$ in $G$. By eliminating the identity element of $G$ and all…
Let $G$ be a group. The permutability graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\Gamma(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices, and two subgroups are adjacent in $\Gamma(G)$ if and only if they permute. In this…
We explore graph theoretical properties of minimal prime graphs of finite solvable groups. In finite group theory studying the prime graph of a group has been an important topic for the past almost half century. Recently prime graphs of…
Let $G=(V, E)$ be a graph where $V$ and $E$ are the vertex and edge sets, respectively. For two disjoint subsets $A$ and $B$ of $V$, we say $A$ \emph{dominates} $B$ if every vertex of $B$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $A$. A vertex…
A vertex triple $(u,v,w)$ of a graph is called a $2$-geodesic if $v$ is adjacent to both $u$ and $w$ and $u$ is not adjacent to $w$. A graph is said to be $2$-geodesic transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on the set of…
The commuting graph of a non-abelian group is a simple graph in which the vertices are the non-central elements of the group, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they commute. In this paper, we classify (up to isomorphism)…
We investigate properties which ensure that a given finite graph is the commuting graph of a group or semigroup. We show that all graphs on at least two vertices such that no vertex is adjacent to all other vertices is the commuting graph…
We introduce a new class of transitive permutation groups which properly contains the automorphism groups of vertex-transitive graphs and digraphs. We then give a sufficient condition for a quotient of this family to remain in the family,…
There has been a great deal of attention recently to graphs whose vertex set is a group, defined using the group structure. (The commuting graph, where two elements are joined if they commute, is the oldest and most famous example.) The…
This paper presents a characterization of edge-transitive graphs which are four regular and have girth four. This class consists of four infinite families plus four exceptional graphs.
For a group $G$ and a subset $X$ of $G$, the commuting graph of $X$, denoted by $\Gamma(G,X)$ is the graph whose vertex set is $X$ and any two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $X$ are adjacent if and only if they commute in $G$. In this article,…
We consider circulant graphs having $p$ vertices, with $p$ prime. To any such graph we associate a certain number $k$, that we call type of the graph. We prove that for $p>>k$ the graph has no quantum symmetry, in the sense that the quantum…
Let $X$ be a finite vertex-transitive graph of valency $d$, and let $A$ be the full automorphism group of $X$. Then the arc-type of $X$ is defined in terms of the sizes of the orbits of the action of the stabiliser $A_v$ of a given vertex…
Given a permutation group $G$, the derangement graph of $G$ is the Cayley graph with connection set the derangements of $G$. The group $G$ is said to be innately transitive if $G$ has a transitive minimal normal subgroup. Clearly, every…
A regular bipartite graph $\Gamma$ is called semisymmetric if its full automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$ acts transitively on the edge set but not on the vertex set. For a subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(\Gamma)$ that stabilizes the…
We prove that if $\Gamma$ is a finite connected vertex-transitive cubic graph, then either $|V\Gamma| \le 90$, or $\Gamma$ is a split Praeger--Xu graph, or there exist two vertices $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that the identity is the only…
We introduce the concept of the primitivity of independent set in vertex-transitive graphs, and investigate the relationship between the primitivity and the structure of maximum independent sets in direct products of vertex-transitive…
The main result of this paper is that, if $\Gamma$ is a finite connected $4$-valent arc-transitive graph, then either $\Gamma$ is part of a well-understood family of graphs, or every non-identity automorphism of $\Gamma$ fixes at most $1/3$…
A connected graph of order $n$ admitting a semiregular automorphism of order $n/k$ is called a $k$-multicirculant. Highly symmetric multicirculants of small valency have been extensively studied, and several classification results exist for…
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\Delta(G)$ be the prime graph built on the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$: this is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the prime numbers dividing some conjugacy class size of $G$, two…
