When is a Schreier Coset graph on a group $G$ with subgroup $H$ and symmetric generating set $S$(without identity) vertex transitive? It is well known that when $H$ is normal, the Schreier coset graph …

Consider a complete multipartite graph $G$ with $k$ $(k\ge2)$ parts with equal number of vertices $n$, where $n$ is even. If $k=2$, it is a well known result that the Alon-Tarsi number (ATN)(The maxim …

Is it possible to $3$-color the elements of the symmetric group $S_n\ n\ge3$ such that all color classes have the same number of elements ($\frac{n!}{3}$); and, when elements in any color class are a …

Yes, it is possible to $3$-color the elements of the Symmetric group in the way stated. The proof can be found in Theorem 1 of MDPI Symmetry Paper. The proof uses a similar idea given in the comments …

Are there known bounds for clique size in generalized Kneser graphs $KG(n,k,t)=K(n,k,t-1)$, the graph formed by distinct $k$ subsets of $n$ set so that two subsets with at most $t$ elements in common …

Consider the Kneser graphs $G=K(n,k)$. Is it possible to list how many even cycles, or, at the least, existence of an even cycle of a given order in $G$, such that any three consecutive vertices form …

Fix $n$ and $k$ with $n \geq 2k+1$. Let $X$ be an $n$ element set. Let $\binom{X}{k}$ denote the collection of $k$-element subsets of $X$. Suppose that $\mathcal{Y} \subseteq \binom{X}{k}$ is a family …

I wish to know the connection between the automorphism group of two graphs and homomorphism between them, if any. Like all Kneser graphs $K(n,k)$ have the same automorphism group $S_n$. But, given ano …

I wish to know the latest bound on the number of edges a graph of girth greater than or equal to $t$ can have. Specifically, I heard somewhere that a graph of girth greater than or equal to $t$ can ha …

Suppose I orient the edges of the power of cycle graph $G=C_n^k$ where $n=16$ and $k=4$ in such a way that all the generated cycles by the elements $1,2,3,4$ are given the standard lexical orientation …

By Borodin–Kostochka–Woodall '97 paper, the first paragraph says that directed odd cycles do not have kernels. But, I don't get this. Like, consider any $\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor$ set of independent …

Let $G$ be the Cayley graph on the alternating group $A_n\,n\ge4$ with generating set $$S=\begin{cases}\{(1,2,3),(1,3,2),\\(1,2,\ldots,n),(1,n,n-1,\ldots,2)\}, &n\ \text{odd}\\ \{(1,2,3),(1,3,2),\\(2, …

Let $G$ be a perfect/ weakly perfect Cayley graph on an abelian group with respect to a symmetric generating set. In addition let the clique number be $\omega$ which divides the order of graph $n$. T …

The Alon-Tarsi number is the least number $k$ such that the coefficient with degree $d$ of the graph polynomial $P(G)=\prod\limits_{i<j}(x_i-x_j)$,( where $x_i$ corresponds to a vertex and a term $x_i …

Let us consider the graph $K_{n,n}$. Since the graph polynomial of $K_{n,n}$ is homogenous with degree $n^2$, we must have the Alon-Tarsi number of the graph $K_{n,n}$ to be $\ge \frac{n^2}{2n}=\frac{ …
