The power graph P(G) of a group G is a graph with vertex set G, where two vertices u and v are adjacent if and only if one is the power of the other. In this paper, we raise and study the following question: For which natural numbers n…

A graph $\Gamma$ is $G$-symmetric if $G$ is a group of automorphisms of $\Gamma$ which is transitive on the set of ordered pairs of adjacent vertices of $\Gamma$. If $V(\Gamma)$ admits a nontrivial $G$-invariant partition ${\cal B}$ such…

Let $p$ be a prime. The right-angled Artin pro-$p$ group $G_{\Gamma}$ associated to a fnite simplicial graph $\Gamma$ is the pro-$p$ completion of the right-angled Artin group associated to $\Gamma$. We prove that the following assertions…

For any fixed graph $G$, the subgraph isomorphism problem asks whether an $n$-vertex input graph has a subgraph isomorphic to $G$. A well-known algorithm of Alon, Yuster and Zwick (1995) efficiently reduces this to the "colored" version of…

A set $D$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a dominating set if every vertex of $G$, which is not in $D$, has a neighbor in $D$. A set of vertices $D$ in $G$ is convex (respectively, isometric), if all vertices in all shortest paths…

Let $G=C_{p^n}$ be a finite cyclic p-group, and let $Hol(G)$ denote its holomorph. In this work, we find and characterize the regular subgroups of $Hol(G)$ that are mutually normalizing each other in the permutation group $Sym(G)$. We…

We investigate a special case of the Induced Subgraph Isomorphism problem, where both input graphs are interval graphs. We show the NP-hardness of this problem, and we prove fixed-parameter tractability of the problem with non-standard…

Let $\Gamma(G)$ be the Gruenberg-Kegel graph of a finite group $G$. We prove that if $G$ is solvable and $\sigma$ is a cut-set for $\Gamma(G)$, then $G$ has a $\sigma$-series of length $5$ whose factors are controlled. As a consequence, we…

We study graph products of groups from the viewpoint of measured group theory. We first establish a full measure equivalence classification of graph products of countably infinite groups over finite simple graphs with no transvection and no…

The enhanced power graph $\mathcal G_e(\mathbf G)$ of a group $\mathbf G$ is the graph with vertex set $G$ such that two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if they are contained in a same cyclic subgroup. We prove that finite groups with…

Let $G$ be a group. The intersection graph $\Gamma(G)$ of $G$ is an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges defined as follows: the vertex set is the set of all proper non-trivial subgroups of $G$, and there is an edge between two…

A graph $\Ga=(V,E)$ is called a Cayley graph of some group $T$ if the automorphism group $\Aut(\Ga)$ contains a subgroup $T$ which acts on regularly on $V$. If the subgroup $T$ is normal in $\Aut(\Ga)$ then $\Ga$ is called a normal Cayley…

We associate a graph $\Gamma_G$ to a non locally cyclic group $G$ (called the non-cyclic graph of $G$) as follows: take $G\backslash Cyc(G)$ as vertex set, where $Cyc(G)=\{x\in G | \left<x,y\right> \text{is cyclic for all} y\in G\}$, and…

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group. We show that $G$ does not have a normal nonabelian Sylow $p$-subgroup when its prime character degree graph $\Delta(G)$ satisfies a technical hypothesis.

Given a graph G, a subset M of V (G) is a module of G if for each v \in V (G) \diagdownM, v is adjacent to all the elements of M or to none of them. For instance, V(G), \varnothing and {v} (v \in V(G)) are modules of G called trivial. Given…

The co-maximal subgroup graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a group $G$ is a graph whose vertices are non-trivial proper subgroups of $G$ and two vertices $H$ and $K$ are adjacent if $HK=G$. In this paper, we continue the study of $\Gamma(G)$, especially…

Let $P$ be a set of $n \geq 5$ points in convex position in the plane. The path graph $G(P)$ of $P$ is an abstract graph whose vertices are non-crossing spanning paths of $P$, such that two paths are adjacent if one can be obtained from the…

The power graph and the enhanced power graph of a group $\mathbf G$ are simple graphs with vertex set $G$; two elements of $G$ are adjacent in the power graph if one of them is a power of the other, and they are adjacent in the enhanced…

We use the theory of blocks of cyclic defect to prove that under a certain condition on the principal p-block of a finite group G the normalized unit group of the integral group ring of G contains an element of order pq if and only if so…

To any finite group $G$, we may associate a graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if the order of the subgroup $\langle x, y\rangle$ is divisible by at least 3…
