To each tournament Tn with n nodes n there corresponds the automorphism group G(Tn) consisting n of all dominance preserving permutations of the set of nodes. In a recent paper [3], Myron Goldberg and J. W. Moon consider the maximum order g(n) which the group of a tournament with n nodes may have. Among other results they prove that12

In this paper, we study some spectral properties of the discrete Schrödinger operator = Δ + q defined on a locally finite connected graph with an automorphism group whose orbit space is a finite graph.The discrete Laplacian and its generalization have been explored from many different viewpoints (for instance, see [2] [4]). Our paper discusses the discrete analogue of the results on the bottom of the spectrum established by T. Kobayashi, K. Ono and T. Sunada [3] in the Riemannian-manifold-setting.

Let G be a connected graph, n the order of G, and f (resp. t) the maximum order of an induced forest (resp. tree) in G. We show that f - t is at most n - ?2?n-1?. In the special case where n is of the form a2 + 1 for some even integer a ? 4, f - t is at most n - ?2?n-1?-1. We also prove that these bounds are tight. In addition, letting ? denote the stability number of G, we show that ? - t is at most n + 1- ?2?2n? this bound is also tight.

For any two vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in a connected graph [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text] path [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text] triangle free path if no three vertices of [Formula: see text] induce a triangle. The triangle free detour distance [Formula: see text] is the length of a longest [Formula: see text] triangle free path in [Formula: see text]. A [Formula: see text] path of length [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text] triangle free detour. A set [Formula: see text] is called a triangle free detour set of [Formula: see text] if every vertex of [Formula: see text] lies on a [Formula: see text] triangle free detour joining a pair of vertices of [Formula: see text]. The triangle free detour number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum order of its triangle free detour sets and any triangle free detour set of order [Formula: see text] is a triangle free detour basis of [Formula: see text]. A triangle free detour set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called a minimal triangle free detour set if no proper subset of [Formula: see text] is a triangle free detour set of [Formula: see text]. The upper triangle free detour number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the maximum order of its minimal triangle free detour sets and any minimal triangle free detour set of order [Formula: see text] is an upper triangle free detour basis of [Formula: see text]. We determine bounds for it and characterize graphs which realize these bounds. For any connected graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Also, for any four positive integers [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], it is shown that there exists a connected graph [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the upper detour number, [Formula: see text] is the upper detour monophonic number and [Formula: see text] is the upper geodetic number of a graph [Formula: see text].

Let S be a closed Riemann surface of genusg > 1,so that Ŝ, the universal covering surface of S, is hyperbolic. We can then uniformize S by a discrete, nonabelian group Γ1 of Möbius transformations of the upper half-plane ℋ. It follows that N1 = NΩ(Γ1) is discrete; here N1is the normalizer of Γ in Ω, the group of (conformal) automorphisms of ℋ. An automorphism of S can be lifted to a coset of Nl/Γl. Hence C(S), the group of automorphisms of S, is isomorphic to Nl/Γ1. The order of C = C(S) equals the index of Γ1 in N1, which in turn equals ⃒Γ1⃒ / ⃒Nl⃒, where ⃒Nl⃒ is the hyperbolic area of a fundamental region of Nl. Since Γ1 uniformizes a surface, we have ⃒Γ1⃒ = 4π(g – 1), while, by Siegel's results [7], ⃒N1 ⃒ ≧ π/21 and N1 can only be the triangle group (2, 3, 7). Hence in all cases the order of C(S) is at most 84(g–1), an old result of Hurwitz [1]. The surfaces that permit a maximal automorphism group (= automorphism group of maximum order) can therefore be obtained by studying the finite factor groups of (2, 3, 7). Such a treatment, purely algebraic in nature, has been promised by Macbeath [5].

A vulnerability parameter the neighbor rupture degree can be used to obtain the vulnerability of a spy network. The neighbor rupture degree of a noncomplete connected graph [Formula: see text] is defined to be [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is any vertex subversion strategy of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is the number of connected components in [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] is the maximum order of the components of [Formula: see text]. In this study, the neighbor rupture degree of transformation graphs [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of path graphs, cycle graphs, wheel graphs, complete graphs and complete bipartite graphs are obtained.

AbstractA graph is edge-transitive if its automorphism group acts transitively on the edge set. In this paper, we investigate the automorphism groups of edge-transitive graphs of odd order and twice prime valency. Let {\varGamma} be a connected graph of odd order and twice prime valency, and let G be a subgroup of the automorphism group of {\varGamma}. In the case where G acts transitively on the edge set and quasiprimitively on the vertex set of {\varGamma}, we prove that either G is almost simple, or G is a primitive group of affine type. If further G is an almost simple primitive group, then, with two exceptions, the socle of G acts transitively on the edge set of {\varGamma}.

Let denote the automorphism group of the tournament T. Let g(n) be the maximum of taken over all tournaments of order n. It was noted in [3] that g(n) is also the order of the subgroups of Sn of maximum odd order where Sn denotes the symmetric group of degree n.

Let $G$ be a connected graph. For an edge $e=uv\in E(G)$, suppose $n(u)$ and $n(v)$ are respectively, the number of vertices of $G$ lying closer to vertex $u$ than to vertex $v$ and the number of vertices of $G$ lying closer to vertex $v$ than to vertex $u$. The Mostar index is a topological index which is defined as $Mo(G)=\sum_{e\in E(G)}f(e)$, where $f(e) = |n(u)-n(v)|$. In this paper, we will compute the Mostar index of a family of fullerene graphs in terms of the automorphism group.

A well-known conjecture of Thomassen states that every cycle of maximum order in a $3$-connected graph contains a chord. While many partial results towards this conjecture have been obtained, the conjecture itself remains unsolved. In this paper, we prove a stronger result without a connectivity assumption for graphs of high minimum degree, which shows Thomassen's conjecture holds in that case. This result is within a constant factor of best possible. In the process of proving this, we prove a more general result showing that large minimum degree forces a large difference between the order of the largest cycle and the order of the largest chordless cycle.
