Pentavalent symmetric graphs of order twice a prime power

Pentavalent symmetric graphs of order 2pq

A graph is said to be symmetric if its automorphism group acts transitively on its arcs. In this paper, a complete classification of connected pentavalent symmetric graphs of order 12p is given for each prime p. As a result, a connected pentavalent symmetric graph of order 12p exists if and only if p = 2, 3, 5 or 11, and up to isomorphism, there are only nine such graphs: one for each p = 2, 3 ...

Two-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power order

In a non-complete graph $Gamma$, a vertex triple $(u,v,w)$ with $v$ adjacent to both $u$ and $w$ is called a $2$-geodesic if $uneq w$ and $u,w$ are not adjacent. The graph $Gamma$ is said to be   $2$-geodesic transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on arcs, and also on 2-geodesics. We first produce a reduction theorem for the family of $2$-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power or...

Classifying pentavalnet symmetric graphs of order $24p$

A graph is said to be symmetric if its automorphism group is transitive on its arcs. A complete classification is given of pentavalent symmetric graphs of order 24p for each prime p. It is shown that a connected pentavalent symmetric graph of order 24p exists if and only if p=2, 3, 5, 11 or 17, and up to isomorphism, there are only eleven such graphs.

Symmetric graphs of order 4p of valency prime

A graph is symmetric or arc-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively on vertices, edges and arcs. Let p, q be odd primes with p, q ≥ 5 and X a q-valent symmetric graph of order 4p. In this paper, we proved that X K4p with 4p-1=q, X K2p,2p-2pK2 with 2p-1=q, the quotient graph of X is isomorphic to Kp,p and p=q, or K2p and 2p-1=q.
