Semiregular automorphisms of vertex-transitive cubic graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
An old conjecture of Marušič, Jordan and Klin asserts that any finite vertextransitive graph has a non-trivial semiregular automorphism. Marušič and Scapellato proved this for cubic graphs. For these graphs, we make a stronger conjecture, to the effect that there is a semiregular automorphism of order tending to infinity with n. We prove that there is one of order greater than 2.

Semiregular Automorphisms of Cubic Vertex-transitive Graphs
We characterise connected cubic graphs admitting a vertextransitive group of automorphisms with an abelian normal subgroup that is not semiregular. We illustrate the utility of this result by using it to prove that the order of a semiregular subgroup of maximum order in a vertex-transitive group of automorphisms of a connected cubic graph grows with the order of the graph, settling [2, Problem ...

متن کاملSemiregular Automorphisms of Cubic Vertex Transitive Graphs
It is shown that for a connected cubic graph Γ , a vertex transitive group G ≤ AutΓ contains a large semiregular subgroup. This confirms a conjecture of Cameron and Sheehan (2001).
متن کاملCubic Non-Cayley Vertex-Transitive Bi-Cayley Graphs over a Regular $p$-Group
A bi-Cayley graph is a graph which admits a semiregular group of automorphisms with two orbits of equal size. In this paper, we give a characterization of cubic nonCayley vertex-transitive bi-Cayley graphs over a regular p-group, where p > 5 is a prime. As an application, a classification of cubic non-Cayley vertex-transitive graphs of order 2p3 is given for each prime p.
متن کاملPermutation Groups, Vertex-transitive Digraphs and Semiregular Automorphisms
A nonidentity element of a permutation group is said to be semiregular if all of its orbits have the same length. The work in this paper is linked to [6] where the problem of existence of semiregular automorphisms in vertex-transitive digraphs was posed. It was observed there that every vertex-transitive digraph of order pk or mp, where p is a prime, k 1 and m p are positive integers, has a sem...
