A bicirculant is a regular, $d$-valent graph that admits a semiregular automorphism of order $m$ having two vertex-orbits of size $m$. The vertices of each orbit induce a circulant graph of order $m$ and the remaining edges span a regular…

A bicirculant is a regular graph that admits an automorphism having two vertex-orbits of the same size. A bicirculant can be described as follows. Given an integer $m \ge 1$ and sets $R, S, T \subseteq \mathbb Z_m$ such that $R=-R$, $T=-T$,…

A graph $\Gamma$ of even order is a bicirculant if it admits an automorphism with two orbits of equal length. Symmetry properties of bicirculants, for which at least one of the induced subgraphs on the two orbits of the corresponding…

A graph admitting an automorphism with two orbits of the same length is called a bicirculant. Recently, Jajcay et al. initiated the investigation of the edge-transitive bicirculants with the properties that one of the subgraphs induced by…

A graph is said to be $k$-{\em isoregular} if any two vertex subsets of cardinality at most $k$, that induce subgraphs of the same isomorphism type, have the same number of neighbors. It is shown that no $3$-isoregular bicirculant (and more…

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…

The {\em bipartite-hole-number} of a graph $G$, denoted as $\widetilde\alpha(G)$, is the minimum number $k$ such that there exist integers $a$ and $b$ with $a + b = k+1$ such that for any two disjoint sets $A, B \subseteq V(G)$, there is an…

A graph is said to be a bi-Cayley graph over a group H if it admits H as a group of automorphisms acting semiregularly on its vertices with two orbits. For a prime p, we call a bi-Cayley graph over a metacyclic p-group a bi-p-metacirculant.…

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…

The prism over a graph $G$ is the Cartesian product of $G$ with the complete graph on two vertices. A graph $G$ is prism-hamiltonian if the prism over $G$ is hamiltonian. We prove that every polyhedral graph (i.e. 3-connected planar graph)…

A graph $\G$ with a group $H$ of automorphisms acting semiregularly on the vertices with two orbits is called a {\em bi-Cayley graph} over $H$. When $H$ is a normal subgroup of $\Aut(\G)$, we say that $\G$ is {\em normal} with respect to…

In 1971, Tutte wrote in an article that "it is tempting to conjecture that every 3-connected bipartite cubic graph is hamiltonian". Motivated by this remark, Horton constructed a counterexample on 96 vertices. In a sequence of articles by…

An oriented graph is an orientation of a simple graph. In 2009, Keevash, K\"{u}hn and Osthus proved that every sufficiently large oriented graph $D$ of order $n$ with $(3n-4)/8$ is Hamiltonian. Later, Kelly, K\"{u}hn and Osthus showed that…

We present a tight extremal threshold for the existence of Hamilton cycles in graphs with large minimum degree and without a large ``bipartite hole`` (two disjoint sets of vertices with no edges between them). This result extends Dirac's…

Barnette's Conjecture claims that all cubic, 3-connected, planar, bipartite graphs are Hamiltonian. We give a translation of this conjecture into the matching-theoretic setting. This allows us to relax the requirement of planarity to give…

In a graph $G$, a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V(G)$ is said to be cyclable if there is a cycle containing the vertices in some order. $G$ is said to be $k$-cyclable if any subset of $k \geq 2$ vertices is cyclable. If any $k$…

In this paper we have given an algorithmic proof of an long standing Barnette's conjecture (1969) that every 3-connected bipartite cubic planar graph is hamiltonian. Our method is quite different than the known approaches and it rely on the…

A finite graph is called a tricirculant if admits a cyclic group of automorphism which has precisely three orbits on the vertex-set of the graph, all of equal size. We classify all finite connected cubic vertex-transitive tricirculants. We…

Let $\mathcal{G}(k)$ denote the set of connected $k$-regular graphs $G$, $k\geq2$, where the number of vertices at distance 2 from any vertex in $G$ does not exceed $k$. Asratian (2006) showed (using other terminology) that a graph…
