The Equivalence between Enumerating Cyclically Symmetric, Self-Complementary and Totally Symmetric, Self-Complementary Plane Partitions

We prove that the number of cyclically symmetric, self-complementary plane partitions contained in a cube of side 2n equals the square of the number of totally symmetric, self-complementary plane partitions contained in the same cube, without explicitly evaluating either of these numbers. This appears to be the first direct proof of this fact. The problem of finding such a proof was suggested b...

Self-Complementary Vertex-Transitive Graphs

A graph Γ is self-complementary if its complement is isomorphic to the graph itself. An isomorphism that maps Γ to its complement Γ is called a complementing isomorphism. The majority of this dissertation is intended to present my research results on the study of self-complementary vertex-transitive graphs. I will provide an introductory mini-course for the backgrounds, and then discuss four pr...

Homogeneously almost self-complementary graphs

A graph is called almost self-complementary if it is isomorphic to the graph obtained from its complement by removing a 1-factor. In this paper, we study a special class of vertex-transitive almost self-complementary graphs called homogeneously almost selfcomplementary. These graphs occur as factors of symmetric index-2 homogeneous factorizations of the “cocktail party graphs” K2n − nK2. We con...

On almost self-complementary graphs

A graph is called almost self-complementary if it is isomorphic to one of its almost complements Xc − I, where Xc denotes the complement of X and I a perfect matching (1-factor) in Xc. Almost self-complementary circulant graphs were first studied by Dobson and Šajna in 2004. In this paper we investigate some of the properties and constructions of general almost self-complementary graphs. In par...
