A transitive graph is 2-dimensional if it can be represented as the intersection of two linear orders. Such representations make answering of reachability queries trivial, and allow many problems that are NP-hard on arbitrary graphs to be…
Let $G$ be a finite group acting vertex-transitively on a graph. We show that bounding the order of a vertex stabilizer is equivalent to bounding the second singular value of a particular bipartite graph. This yields an alternative…
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…
For a group $G$ and a subset $X$ of $G$, the commuting graph of $X$, denoted by $\Gamma(G,X)$ is the graph whose vertex set is $X$ and any two vertices $u$ and $v$ in $X$ are adjacent if and only if they commute in $G$. In this article,…
In 1984, Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits conjectured the following: given a bipartite graph $H$, there exist constants $\beta, C > 0$ such that any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $pn^2\geq C \mathrm{ex}(n, H)$ edges contains at least $\beta…
A graph $\G$ is {\em symmetric} or {\em arc-transitive} if its automorphism group $\Aut(\G)$ is transitive on the arc set of the graph, and $\G$ is {\em basic} if $\Aut(\G)$ has no non-trivial normal subgroup $N$ such that the quotient…
In this short note, we prove that for \beta < 1/5 every graph G with n vertices and n^{2-\beta} edges contains a subgraph G' with at least cn^{2-2\beta} edges such that every pair of edges in G' lie together on a cycle of length at most 8.…
An embedding of a graph on an orientable surface is orientably-regular (or rotary, in an equivalent terminology) if the group of orientation-preserving automorphisms of the embedding is transitive (and hence regular) on incident vertex-edge…
One way to certify that a graph does not contain an induced cycle of length six is to provide a partition of its vertex set into (i) a stable set, and (ii) a graph containing no stable set of size three and no induced matching of size two.…
In this paper, the concept of cyclic subsets in graph theory is introduced. An interesting theorem which relates to the collective Hamiltonicity of these cyclic subsets in graphs is also presented. This paper uses this theorem to construct…
Let $V$ denote a vector space over two-element field $\mathbb F_2$ with finite positive dimension and endowed with a symplectic form $B.$ Let ${\rm SL}(V)$ denote the special linear group of $V.$ Let $S$ denote a subset of $V.$ Define…
Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$, and suppose $G_{\alpha}\cap G_{\beta}=1$ for some distinct $\alpha, \beta\in\Omega$. The Saxl graph $\Sigma(G)$ of $(G, \Omega)$ is defined as the graph with vertex set $\Omega$,…
We prove that the cut space of any transitive graph $G$ is a finitely generated ${\rm Aut}(G)$-module if the same is true for its cycle space. This confirms a conjecture of Diestel which says that every locally finite transitive graph whose…
We describe a technique to determine the automorphism group of a geometrically represented graph, by understanding the structure of the induced action on all geometric representations. Using this, we characterize automorphism groups of…
We study Hamiltonicity and pancyclicity in the graph obtained as the union of a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $H$ with $\delta(H)\geq\alpha n$ and a random $d$-regular graph $G$, for $d\in\{1,2\}$. When $G$ is a random $2$-regular graph,…
It is known that a graph isomorphism testing algorithm is polynomially equivalent to a detecting of a graph non-trivial automorphism algorithm. The polynomiality of the latter algorithm, is obtained by consideration of symmetry properties…
It was shown by Beisegel, Chudnovsky, Gurvich, Milani\v{c}, and Servatius in 2022 that every induced $2$-edge path in a vertex-transitive graph closes to an induced cycle. Similar results were obtained for 3-edge paths closing to cycles in…
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…
A recently posed question of Haggkvist and Scott's asked whether or not there exists a constant c such that if G is a graph of minimum degree ck then G contains cycles of k consecutive even lengths. In this paper we answer the question by…
A detailed proof is given of a theorem describing the centraliser of a transitive permutation group, with applications to automorphism groups of objects in various categories of maps, hypermaps, dessins, polytopes and covering spaces, where…
