We continue the study of prime graphs of finite groups, also known as Gruenberg-Kegel graphs. The vertices of the prime graph of a finite group are the prime divisors of the group order, and two vertices $p$ and $q$ are connected by an edge…

A graph automorphism is a bijective mapping of the vertices that preserves adjacent vertices. A vertex determining set of a graph is a set of vertices such that the only automorphism that fixes those vertices is the identity. The size of a…

We study fixed subgroups of automorphisms of any large-type Artin group $A_{\Gamma}$. We define a natural subgroup $\mathrm{Aut}_\Gamma(A_\Gamma)$ of $\mathrm{Aut}(A_{\Gamma})$, and for every $\gamma \in \mathrm{Aut}_\Gamma(A_\Gamma)$ we…

We construct an embedding G of the category of graphs into the category of abelian groups such that for graphs X and Y we have Hom(GX,GY)=Z[Hom(X,Y)], the free abelian group whose basis is the set Hom(X,Y). The isomorphism is functorial in…

The minimum rank problem is to determine for a graph $G$ the smallest rank of a Hermitian (or real symmetric) matrix whose off-diagonal zero-nonzero pattern is that of the adjacency matrix of $G$. Here $G$ is taken to be a circulant graph,…

The distinguishing number of a graph $G$ is the smallest positive integer $r$ such that $G$ has a labeling of its vertices with $r$ labels for which there is no non-trivial automorphism of $G$ preserving these labels. Albertson and Collins…

We find a set of generators for the automorphism group of a graph product of finitely generated abelian groups entirely from a certain labeled graph. In addition, we find generators for the important subgroup of star-automorphisms defined…

A dominating set $S$ of a graph is a metric-locating-dominating set if each vertex of the graph is uniquely distinguished by its distances from the elements of $S$, and the minimum cardinality of such a set is called the…

An automorphism $\alpha$ of a group $G$ is normal if it fixes every normal subgroup of $G$ setwise. We give an algebraic description of normal automorphisms of relatively hyperbolic groups. In particular, we prove that for any relatively…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite graph and let $A(\Gamma)$ be the corresponding right-angled Artin group. From an arbitrary basis $\mathcal B$ of $H^1(A(\Gamma),\mathbb F)$ over an arbitrary field, we construct a natural graph $\Gamma_{\mathcal B}$…

A Cayley graph for a group $G$ is CCA if every automorphism of the graph that preserves the edge-orbits under the regular representation of $G$ is an element of the normaliser of $G$. A group $G$ is then said to be CCA if every connected…

It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…

An arithmetical structure on a finite, connected graph without loops is an assignment of positive integers to the vertices that satisfies certain conditions. Associated to each of these is a finite abelian group known as its critical group.…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$. We attach to $N$ two graphs ${\Gamma}_G(N)$ and ${\Gamma}^{\ast}_G(N)$ related to the conjugacy classes of $G$ contained in $N$ and to the set of primes dividing the sizes…

The prime graph (or Gruenberg-Kegel graph) of a finite group $G$ is a familiar graph. In this paper first, we investigate the structure of the finite groups with a non-complete prime graph. Then we prove that every alternating group…

The power graph of a group is the graph whose vertex set is the set of nontrivial elements of group, two elements being adjacent if one is a power of the other. We introduce some way for find the automorphism groups of some graphs. As an…

We study the homology of an explicit finite-index subgroup of the automorphism group of a partially commutative group, in the case when its defining graph is a tree. More concretely, we give a lower bound on the first Betti number of this…

A set of vertices in a graph is a Hamiltonian subset if it induces a subgraph containing a Hamiltonian cycle. Kim, Liu, Sharifzadeh and Staden proved that among all graphs with minimum degree $d$, $K_{d+1}$ minimises the number of…

In this article we generalize the theory of subgroup graphs of subgroups of free groups to finite index subgroups $H$ of finitely generated groups $G$. We study and prove various properties of $H$ in relation to its subgroup graph…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, written additively, and $H$ a subgroup of~$G$. The \emph{subgroup sum graph} $\Gamma_{G,H}$ is the graph with vertex set $G$, in which two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are joined if $x+y\in…
