The topological symmetry group $\mathrm{TSG}(\Gamma)$ of an embedding $\Gamma$ of a graph in $S^3$ is the subgroup of the automorphism group of the graph which is induced by homeomorphisms of $(S^3,\Gamma)$. If we restrict to orientation…

Let $S$ be a finite non-commutative semigroup. The commuting graph of $S$, denoted $\cg(S)$, is the graph whose vertices are the non-central elements of $S$ and whose edges are the sets $\{a,b\}$ of vertices such that $a\ne b$ and $ab=ba$.…

The Johnson graph J(v,k) has, as vertices, the k-subsets of a v-set V, and as edges the pairs of k-subsets with intersection of size k-1. We introduce the notion of a neighbour-transitive code in J(v,k). This is a vertex subset \Gamma such…

A code $C$ in a generalised quadrangle ${\mathcal Q}$ is defined to be a subset of the vertex set of the point-line incidence graph $\varGamma$ of ${\mathcal Q}$. The minimum distance $\delta$ of $C$ is the smallest distance between a pair…

A graph is said to be edge-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively on its edges. It is known that edge-transitive graphs are either vertex-transitive or bipartite. In this paper we present a complete classification of all…

An arc of a graph is an oriented edge and a 3-arc is a 4-tuple $(v,u,x,y)$ of vertices such that both $(v,u,x)$ and $(u,x,y)$ are paths of length two. The 3-arc graph of a graph $G$ is defined to have vertices the arcs of $G$ such that two…

The motion of a graph is the minimal degree of its full automorphism group. Babai conjectured that the motion of a primitive distance-regular graph on $n$ vertices of diameter greater than two is at least $n/C$ for some universal constant…

The cyclic graph $\Gamma(S)$ of a semigroup $S$ is the simple graph whose vertex set is $S$ and two vertices $x, y$ are adjacent if the subsemigroup generated by $x$ and $y$ is monogenic. In this paper, we classify the semigroup $S$ such…

A Cayley graph $\Cay(G,S)$ is said to be inner-automorphic if $S$ is a union of conjugacy classes of a group $G$, and arc-transitive if its full automorphism group acts transitively on the set of arcs. In this paper, we characterize four…

A graph Gamma is said to be 2-arc-transitive if its full automorphism group Aut(\Gamma) has a single orbit on ordered paths of length 2, and for G\leq Aut(\Gamma), \Gamma is G-regular if G is regular on the vertex set of \Gamma. Let G be a…
