In 1992, Manoussakis conjectured that a strongly 2-connected digraph $D$ on $n$ vertices is hamiltonian if for every two distinct pairs of independent vertices $x,y$ and $w,z$ we have $d(x)+d(y)+d(w)+d(z)\geq 4n-3$. In this note we show…
It is known that a distance-regular graph with valency $k$ at least three admits at most two Q-polynomial structures. % In this note we show that all distance-regular graphs with diameter four and valency at least three admitting two…
A Hamiltonian path in a digraph $D$ in which the initial vertex dominates the terminal vertex is called a Hamiltonian bypass. Let $D$ be a 2-strong digraph of order $p\geq 3$ and let $z$ be some vertex of $D$. Suppose that every vertex of…
A path (cycle) in a $2$-edge-colored multigraph is alternating if no two consecutive edges have the same color. The problem of determining the existence of alternating Hamiltonian paths and cycles in $2$-edge-colored multigraphs is an…
We prove a conjecture of Penrose about the standard random geometric graph process, in which n vertices are placed at random on the unit square and edges are sequentially added in increasing order of lengths taken in the l_p norm. We show…
We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…
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. A non-abelian group is called an inner-abelian group if all of its proper subgroups are…
Given a graph $G$ and a family $\mathcal{G} = \{G_1,\ldots,G_n\}$ of subgraphs of $G$, a transversal of $\mathcal{G}$ is a pair $(T,\phi)$ such that $T \subseteq E(G)$ and $\phi: T \rightarrow [n]$ is a bijection satisfying $e \in…
A mixed dihedral group is a group $H$ with two disjoint subgroups $X$ and $Y$, each elementary abelian of order $2^n$, such that $H$ is generated by $X\cup Y$, and $H/H'\cong X\times Y$. In this paper, for each $n\geq 2$, we construct a…
Following a problem posed by Lov\'asz in 1969, it is believed that every connected vertex-transitive graph has a Hamilton path. This is shown here to be true for cubic Cayley graphs arising from groups having a $(2,s,3)$-presentation, that…
Circulant graphs $C_n(R)$ and $C_n(S)$ are said to be \emph{Adam's isomorphic} if there exist some $a\in \mathbb{Z}_n^*$ such that $S = a R$ under arithmetic reflexive modulo $n$. In 1970, Elspas and Turner \cite{eltu} raised a question on…
Circulant graphs are a widely studied family of graphs whose members possess varying amounts of symmetry. Although considerable progress has been made in finding the automorphism groups of circulant graphs under certain restrictions, a…
A simple graph $G$ is \textit{k-ordered} (respectively, \textit{k-ordered hamiltonian}), if for any sequence of $k$ distinct vertices $v_1, ..., v_k$ of $G$ there exists a cycle (respectively, hamiltonian cycle) in $G$ containing these $k$…
Finite connected cubic symmetric graphs of girth 6 have been classified by K. Kutnar and D. Maru\v{s}i\v{c}, in particular, each of these graphs has an abelian automorphism group with two orbits on the vertex set. In this paper all cubic…
This study is the first part of a detailed study on Type-2 isomorphic circulant graphs having ten parts \cite{v2-1}-\cite{v2-10}. Circulant graphs $C_n(R)$ and $C_n(S)$ are said to be \emph{Adam's isomorphic} if there exist some $a\in…
We study biplane graphs drawn on a finite point set $S$ in the plane in general position. This is the family of geometric graphs whose vertex set is $S$ and which can be decomposed into two plane graphs. We show that every sufficiently…
A {\em hole} in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of length at least four. A hole is called {\em even} if it has an even number of vertices. An {\em even-hole-free} graph is a graph with no even holes. A vertex of a graph is…
Recently, Milani\v{c} and Trotignon introduced the class of equistarable graphs as graphs without isolated vertices admitting positive weights on the edges such that a subset of edges is of total weight $1$ if and only if it forms a maximal…
A graph is called {\em arc-transitive} (or {\em symmetric}) if its automorphism group has a single orbit on ordered pairs of adjacent vertices, and 2-arc-transitive its automorphism group has a single orbit on ordered paths of length 2. In…
One version of the polycirculant conjecture states that every vertex-transitive graph has a semiregular automorphism. We give a proof of the conjecture in the arc-transitive case for graphs of valency 8, which was the smallest open case.
