For a simple connected graph $G$, the $Q$-generating function of the numbers $N_k$ of semi-edge walks of length $k$ in $G$ is defined by $W_Q(t)=\sum\nolimits_{k = 0}^\infty {N_k t^k }$. This paper reveals that the $Q$-generating function…
This is a chapter in a forthcoming book on completely regular codes in distance regular graphs. The chapter provides an overview, and some original results, on codes in distance regular graphs which admit symmetries via a permutation group…
A $t$-fold packing of a projective space $\rm{PG}_n(q)$ is a collection $\mathcal{P}$ of line-spreads such that each line of $\rm{PG}_n(q)$ occurs in precisely $t$ spreads in $\mathcal{P}$. A $t$-fold packing $\mathcal{P}$ is transitive if…
This survey paper contains a tutorial introduction to distance-regular graphs, with an emphasis on the subconstituent algebra and the $Q$-polynomial property.
The concept of context-free grammar in Combinatorics was first introduced by Chen in 1993. In 1996, Dumont significantly extended the theory of context-free grammars to a variety of other combinatorial models. Substantial progress in this…
The $q$-analogs of basic designs are discussed. It is proved that the existence of any unknown Steiner structures, the $q$-analogs of Steiner systems, implies the existence of unknown Steiner systems. Optimal $q$-analogs covering designs…
Following Alspach and Parsons, a {\em metacirculant graph} is a graph admitting a transitive group generated by two automorphisms $\rho$ and $\sigma$, where $\rho$ is $(m,n)$-semiregular for some integers $m \geq 1$, $n \geq 2$, and where…
Following an idea due to J. Bernoulli, we explore the q-analogue of the sums of powers of consecutive integers.
Chordal graphs are important in the structural and algorithmic graph theory. A digraph analogue of chordal graphs was introduced by Haskin and Rose in 1973 but has not been a subject of active studies until recently when a characterization…
We introduce a notion of $q$-deformed rational numbers and $q$-deformed continued fractions. A $q$-deformed rational is encoded by a triangulation of a polygon and can be computed recursively. The recursive formula is analogous to the…
A divisible design graph is a graph whose adjacency matrix is an incidence matrix of a (group) divisible design. Divisible design graphs were introduced in 2011 as a generalization of $(v,k,\lambda)$-graphs. Here we describe four new…
Quasi-median graphs have been introduced by Mulder in 1980 as a generalisation of median graphs, known in geometric group theory to naturally coincide with the class of CAT(0) cube complexes. In his PhD thesis, the author showed that…
In this paper, we consider a q-analogue of Laplace transform and we investigate some properties of q-Laplace transform. From our investigation, we derive some interesting formulae related to q-Laplace transform.
We associate a formal power series with integer coefficients to a positive real number, we interpret this series as a "$q$-analogue of a real." The construction is based on the notion of $q$-deformed rational number introduced in…
We introduce a new class of graphs which we call P-transitive graphs, lying between transitive and 3-transitive graphs. First we show that the analogue of de Jongh-Sambin Theorem is false for wellfounded P-transitive graphs; then we show…
The concept of $q$-deformation, or ``$q$-analogue'' arises in many areas of mathematics. In algebra and representation theory, it is the origin of quantum groups; $q$-deformations are important for knot invariants, combinatorial…
We study short sums of algebraic trace functions via the $q$-analogue of van der Corput method, and develop methods of arithmetic exponent pairs that coincide with the classical case while the moduli has sufficiently good factorizations. As…
Directed strongly regular graphs were introduced by Duval in 1998 as one of the possible generalization of classical strongly regular graphs to the directed case. Duval also provided several construction methods for directed strongly…
Half-arc-transitive graphs are a fascinating topic which connects graph theory, Riemann surfaces and group theory. Although fruitful results have been obtained over the last half a century, it is still challenging to construct…
The $q$-commutation relations, formulated in the setting of the $q$-Fock space of Bo\.zjeko and Speicher, interpolate between the classical commutation relations (CCR) and the classical anti-commutation relations (CAR) defined on the…
