In this note, we introduce the concept of factored lift, associated with a combined voltage graph, as a generalization of the lift graph. We present a new method for computing the eigenvalues and eigenspaces of factored lifts.
We present a method to derive the complete spectrum of the lift $\Gamma^\alpha$ of a base digraph $\Gamma$, with voltage assignments on a (finite) group $G$. The method is based on assigning to $\Gamma$ a quotient-like matrix whose entries…
We consider voltage digraphs, here referred to as graphs, whose edges are labeled with elements from a given group, and explore their derived graphs. Given two voltage graphs, with voltages in abelian groups, we establish a necessary and…
A graph with a semiregular group of automorphisms can be thought of as the derived cover arising from a voltage graph. Since its inception, the theory of voltage graphs and their derived covers has been a powerful tool used in the study of…
We prove that the notion of a derived voltage graph comes from an adjunction between the category of voltage graphs and a category of group labeled graphs.
Using the theory of group action, we first introduce the concept of the automorphism group of an exponential family or a graphical model, thus formalizing the general notion of symmetry of a probabilistic model. This automorphism group…

We describe, in a very explicit way, a method for determining the spectra and bases of all the corresponding eigenspaces of arbitrary lifts of graphs (regular or not).
In this paper we are interested in lifting a prescribed group of automorphisms of a finite graph via regular covering projections. Here we describe with an example the problems we address and refer to the introductory section for the…
This article proposes an effective criterion for lifting automorphisms along regular coverings of graphs, with the covering transformation group being any finite abelian group.
We study the relationship between two key concepts in the theory of (di)graphs: the quotient digraph, and the lift $\Gamma^{\alpha}$ of a base (voltage) digraph. These techniques contract or expand a given digraph in order to study its…
The regular embeddings of complete bipartite graphs $K_{n,n}$ in orientable surfaces are classified and enumerated, and their automorphism groups and combinatorial properties are determined. The method depends on earlier classifications in…
An ordinary voltage graph embedding of a graph in a surface encodes a certain kind of highly symmetric covering space of that surface. Given an ordinary voltage graph embedding of a graph $G$ in a surface with voltage group $A$ and a…
We develop a general diagrammatic theory of welded graphs, and provide an extension of Satoh's Tube map from welded graphs to ribbon surface-links. As a topological application, we obtain a complete link-homotopy classification of so-called…
This paper presents a concise tutorial on spectral clustering for broad spectrum graphs which include unipartite (undirected) graph, bipartite graph, and directed graph. We show how to transform bipartite graph and directed graph into…
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…
We generalize the enhanced power graph by replacing elements with classes under automorphisms. We show that the connectivity and diameter of this graph is similar to that of the enhanced power graph. We consider the universal vertices of…
Recently, the first author [1] showed that the admissible vector-valued automorphic forms lift to the admissible ones. In this article, we study the lifts for the logarithmic vector-valued automorphic forms and explicitly compute the…
A theory of orientation on gain graphs (voltage graphs) is developed to generalize the notion of orientation on graphs and signed graphs. Using this orientation scheme, the line graph of a gain graph is studied. For a particular family of…
The theory of voltage graphs has become a standard tool in the study graphs admitting a semiregular group of automorphisms. We introduce the notion of a cyclic generalised voltage graph to extend the scope of this theory to graphs admitting…
