چکیده

We consider symmetric powers of a graph. In particular, we show that the spectra of the symmetric square of strongly regular graphs with the same parameters are equal. We also provide some bounds on the spectra of the symmetric squares of more general graphs. The connection with generic exchange Hamiltonians in quantum mechanics is discussed in an appendix.

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.

Cubic symmetric graphs of orders $36p$ and $36p^{2}$

A graph is textit{symmetric}, if its automorphism group is transitive on the set of its arcs. In this paper, we  classifyall the connected cubic symmetric  graphs of order $36p$  and $36p^{2}$, for each prime $p$, of which the proof depends on the classification of finite simple groups.

A NOTE ON THE COMMUTING GRAPHS OF A CONJUGACY CLASS IN SYMMETRIC GROUPS

The commuting graph of a group is a graph with vertexes set of a subset of a group and two element are adjacent if they commute. The aim of this paper is to obtain the automorphism group of the commuting graph of a conjugacy class in the symmetric groups. The clique number, coloring number, independent number, and diameter of these graphs are also computed.

Cycle Switches in Latin Squares

Cycle switches are the simplest changes which can be used to alter latin squares, and as such have found many applications in the generation of latin squares. They also provide the simplest examples of latin interchanges or trades in latin square designs. In this paper we construct graphs in which the vertices are classes of latin squares. Edges arise from switching cycles to move from one clas...

COMPUTING THE EIGENVALUES OF CAYLEY GRAPHS OF ORDER p2q

A graph is called symmetric if its full automorphism group acts transitively on the set of arcs. The Cayley graph $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ on group $G$ is said to be normal symmetric if $N_A(R(G))=R(G)rtimes Aut(G,S)$ acts transitively on the set of arcs of $Gamma$. In this paper, we classify all connected tetravalent normal symmetric Cayley graphs of order $p^2q$ where $p>q$ are prime numbers.
