Primitive decompositions of Johnson graphs
A transitive decomposition of a graph is a partition of the edge set together
with a group of automorphisms which transitively permutes the parts. In this
paper we determine all transitive decompositions of the Johnson graphs such
that the group preserving the partition is arc-transitive and acts primitively
on the parts.Comment: 35 page
Cubic s-arc transitive Cayley graphs
AbstractThis paper gives a characterization of connected cubic s-transitive Cayley graphs. It is shown that, for s≥3, every connected cubic s-transitive Cayley graph is a normal cover of one of 13 graphs: three 3-transitive graphs, four 4-transitive graphs and six 5-transitive graphs. Moreover, the argument in this paper also gives another proof for a well-known result which says that all connected cubic arc-transitive Cayley graphs of finite non-abelian simple groups are normal except two 5-transitive Cayley graphs of the alternating group A47

Computational Group Theory (hybrid meeting)
This was the eighth Oberwolfach Workshop on Computational Group Theory.
It demonstrated how an increasing number and variety of deep theoretical
results are being used to devise powerful and practical algorithms in
Computational Group Theory.
The talks also presented connections with and applications to
Number Theory, Combinatorics, Geometry, and Geometric Group Theory
Multicoloured Random Graphs: Constructions and Symmetry
This is a research monograph on constructions of and group actions on
countable homogeneous graphs, concentrating particularly on the simple random
graph and its edge-coloured variants. We study various aspects of the graphs,
but the emphasis is on understanding those groups that are supported by these
graphs together with links with other structures such as lattices, topologies
and filters, rings and algebras, metric spaces, sets and models, Moufang loops
and monoids. The large amount of background material included serves as an
introduction to the theories that are used to produce the new results. The
large number of references should help in making this a resource for anyone
interested in beginning research in this or allied fields.Comment: Index added in v2. This is the first of 3 documents; the other 2 will
