Generalized quaternion groups with the mm-DCI property

A Cayley digraph Cay(G,S) of a finite group $G$ with respect to a subset $S$ of $G$ is said to be a CI-digraph if for every Cayley digraph Cay(G,T) isomorphic to Cay(G,S), there exists an automorphism $\sigma$ of $G$ such that $S^\sigma=T$. A finite group $G$ is said to have the $m$-DCI property for some positive integer $m$ if all $m$-valent Cayley digraphs of $G$ are CI-digraphs, and is said to be a DCI-group if $G$ has the $m$-DCI property for all $1\leq m\leq |G|$. Let $\mathrm{Q}_{4n}$ be a generalized quaternion group of order $4n$ with an integer $n\geq 3$, and let $\mathrm{Q}_{4n}$ have the $m$-DCI property for some $1 \leq m\leq 2n-1$. It is shown in this paper that $n$ is odd, and $n$ is not divisible by $p^2$ for any prime $p\leq m-1$. Furthermore, if $n\geq 3$ is a power of a prime $p$, then $\mathrm{Q}_{4n}$ has the $m$-DCI property if and only if $p$ is odd, and either $n=p$ or $1\leq m\leq p$.Comment: 1

Highly arc transitive digraphs

Unendliche, hochgradig bogentransitive Digraphen werden definiert und anhand von Beispielen vorgestellt. Die Erreichbarkeitsrelation und Eigenschaft–Z werden definiert und unter Verwendung von Knotengraden, Wachstum und anderen Eigenschaften, die von der Untersuchung von Nachkommen von Doppelstrahlen oder Automorphismengruppen herrühren, auf hochgradig bogentransitiven Digraphen untersucht. Seifters Theoreme über hochgradig bogentransitive Digraphen mit mehr als einem Ende, seine daherrührende Vermutung und deren sie widerlegende Gegenbeispiele werden vorgestellt. Eine Bedingung, unter der C–homogene Digraphen hochgradig bogentransitiv sind, wird angegeben und die Verbindung zwischen hochgradig bogentransitiven Digraphen und total unzusammenhängenden, topologischen Gruppen wird erwähnt. Einige Bemerkungen über die Vermutung von Cameron–Praeger–Wormald werden gemacht und eine verfeinerte Version vermutet. Die Eigenschaften der bekannten hochgradig bogentransitiven Digraphen werden gesammelt. Es wird festgestellt, dass einige, aber nicht alle unter ihnen Cayley–Graphen sind. Schließlich werden offen gebliebene Fragestellungen und Vermutungen zusammengefasst und neue hinzugefügt. Für die vorgestellten Lemmata, Propositionen und Theoreme sind entweder Beweise enthalten, oder Referenzen zu Beweisen werden angegeben.Infinite, highly arc transitive digraphs are defined and examples are given. The Reachability–Relation and Property-Z are defined and investigated on infinite, highly arc transitive digraphs using the valencies, spread and other properties arising from the investigation of the descendants of lines or the automorphism groups. Seifters theorems about highly arc transitive digraphs with more than one end, his conjecture on them and the counterexamples that disproved his conjecture, are given. A condition for C–homogeneous digraphs to be highly arc transitve is stated and the connection between highly arc transitive digraphs and totally disconnected, topological groups is mentioned. Some notes on the Cameron–Praeger–Wormald–Conjecture are made and a refined conjecture is stated. The properties of the known highly arc transitive digraphs are collected, some but not all of them are Cayley–graphs. Finally open questions and conjectures are stated and new ones are added. For the given lemmas, propositions and theorems either proofs or references to proofs are included

On the Isomorphisms of Cayley Graphs of Abelian Groups

AbstractLet G be a finite group, S a subset of G\{1}, and let Cay (G,S) denote the Cayley digraph of G with respect to S. If, for any subset T of G\(1), Cay(G,S)≅Cay(G,T) implies that Sα=T for some α∈Aut(G), then S is called a CI-subset. The group G is called a CIM-group if for any minimal generating subset S of G,S∪S−1 is a CI-subset. In this paper, CIM-abelian groups are characterized

Finite 33-connected homogeneous graphs

A finite graph \G is said to be {\em $(G,3)$-$($connected$)$ homogeneous} if every isomorphism between any two isomorphic (connected) subgraphs of order at most $3$ extends to an automorphism $g\in G$ of the graph, where $G$ is a group of automorphisms of the graph. In 1985, Cameron and Macpherson determined all finite $(G, 3)$-homogeneous graphs. In this paper, we develop a method for characterising $(G,3)$-connected homogeneous graphs. It is shown that for a finite $(G,3)$-connected homogeneous graph \G=(V, E), either G_v^{\G(v)} is $2$--transitive or G_v^{\G(v)} is of rank $3$ and \G has girth $3$, and that the class of finite $(G,3)$-connected homogeneous graphs is closed under taking normal quotients. This leads us to study graphs where $G$ is quasiprimitive on $V$. We determine the possible quasiprimitive types for $G$ in this case and give new constructions of examples for some possible types
