On the size of spheres of relations with a transitive group of automorphisms

چکیده

Let Γ = (V,E) be a point-transitive reflexive relation. Let v ∈ V and put r = |Γ(v)|. Also assume Γ(v) ∩ Γ−(v) = {v}. Then |Γ(v) \ Γ(v)| ≥ r − 1. In particular we have |Γ(v)| ≥ 1 + (r − 1)j. The last result confirms a recent conjecture of Seymour in the case vertex-transitive graphs. Also it gives a short proof for the validity of the Caccetta-Häggkvist conjecture for vertex-transitive graphs and generalizes an additive result of Shepherdson.

Sharply $(n-2)$-transitive Sets of Permutations

Let $S_n$ be the symmetric group on the set $[n]={1, 2, ldots, n}$. For $gin S_n$ let $fix(g)$ denote the number of fixed points of $g$. A subset $S$ of $S_n$ is called $t$-emph{transitive} if for any two $t$-tuples $(x_1,x_2,ldots,x_t)$ and $(y_1,y_2,ldots ,y_t)$ of distinct elements of $[n]$, there exists $gin S$ such that $x_{i}^g=y_{i}$ for any $1leq ileq t$ and additionally $S$ is called e...

On Marginal Automorphisms of a Group Fixing the Certain Subgroup

Let W be a variety of groups defined by a set W of laws and G be a finite p-group in W. The automorphism α of a group G is said to bea marginal automorphism (with respect to W), if for all x ∈ G, x−1α(x) ∈ W∗(G), where W∗(G) is the marginal subgroup of G. Let M,N be two normalsubgroups of G. By AutM(G), we mean the subgroup of Aut(G) consistingof all automorphisms which centralize G/M. AutN(G) ...

Fuzzy number-valued fuzzy ‎relation

It is well known fact that binary relations are generalized mathematical functions. Contrary to functions from domain to range, binary relations may assign to each element of domain two or more elements of range. Some basic operations on functions such as the inverse and composition are applicable to binary relations as well. Depending on the domain or range or both are fuzzy value fuzzy set, i...

Application of fundamental relations on n-ary polygroups

The class of  $n$-ary polygroups is a certain subclass of $n$-ary hypergroups, a generalization of D{"o}rnte $n$-arygroups and  a generalization of polygroups. The$beta^*$-relation and the $gamma^*$-relation are the smallestequivalence relations on an $n$-ary polygroup $P$ such that$P/beta^*$ and $P/gamma^*$ are an $n$-ary group and acommutative $n$-ary group, respectively. We use the $beta^*$-...

NILPOTENCY AND SOLUBILITY OF GROUPS RELATIVE TO AN AUTOMORPHISM

In this paper we introduce the concept of α-commutator which its definition is based on generalized conjugate classes. With this notion, α-nilpotent groups, α-solvable groups, nilpotency and solvability of groups related to the automorphism are defined. N(G) and S(G) are the set of all nilpotency classes and the set of all solvability classes for the group G with respect to different automorphi...
