16. Reachability relations in digraphsAleksander Malnič, Dragan Marušič, Norbert Seifter, Primož Šparl, Boris Zgrablić, 2008, original scientific article Abstract: In this paper we study reachability relations on vertices of digraphs, informally defined as follows. First, the weight of a walk is equal to the number of edges traversed in the direction coinciding with their orientation, minus the number of edges traversed in the direction opposite to their orientation. Then, a vertex ▫$u$▫ is ▫$R_k^+$▫-related to a vertex ▫$v$▫ if there exists a 0-weighted walk from ▫$u$▫ to ▫$v$▫ whose every subwalk starting at u has weight in the interval ▫$[0,k]$▫. Similarly, a vertex ▫$u$▫ is ▫$R_k^-$▫-related to a vertex ▫$v$▫ if there exists a 0-weighted walk from ▫$u$▫ to ▫$v$▫ whose every subwalk starting at ▫$u$▫ has weight in the interval ▫$[-k,0]$▫. For all positive integers ▫$k$▫, the relations ▫$R_k^+$▫ and ▫$R_k^-$▫ are equivalence relations on the vertex set of a given digraph. We prove that, for transitive digraphs, properties of these relations are closely related to other properties such as having property ▫$\mathbb{Z}$▫, the number of ends, growth conditions, and vertex degree.

17. Symmetry structure of bicirculantsAleksander Malnič, Dragan Marušič, Primož Šparl, Boštjan Frelih, 2007, original scientific article Abstract: An ▫$n$▫-bicirculant is a graph having an automorphism with two orbits of length ▫$n$▫ and no other orbits. Symmetry properties of ▫$p$▫-bicirculants, ▫$p$▫ a prime, are extensively studied. In particular, the actions of their automorphism groups are described in detail in terms of certain algebraic representation of such graphs.

18. On strongly regular bicirculantsAleksander Malnič, Dragan Marušič, Primož Šparl, 2007, original scientific article Abstract: An ▫$n$▫-bicirculantis a graph having an automorphism with two orbits of length ▫$n$▫ and no other orbits. This article deals with strongly regular bicirculants. It is known that for a nontrivial strongly regular ▫$n$▫-bicirculant, ▫$n$▫ odd, there exists a positive integer m such that ▫$n=2m^2+2m+1▫$. Only three nontrivial examples have been known previously, namely, for ▫$m=1,2$▫ and 4. Case ▫$m=1$▫ gives rise to the Petersen graph and its complement, while the graphs arising from cases ▫$m=2$▫ and ▫$m=4$▫ are associated with certain Steiner systems. Similarly, if ▫$n$▫ is even, then ▫$n=2m^2$▫ for some ▫$m \ge 2$▫. Apart from a pair of complementary strongly regular 8-bicirculants, no other example seems to be known. A necessary condition for the existence of a strongly regular vertex-transitive ▫$p$▫-bicirculant, ▫$p$▫ a prime, is obtained here. In addition, three new strongly regular bicirculants having 50, 82 and 122 vertices corresponding, respectively, to ▫$m=3,4$▫ and 5 above, are presented. These graphs are not associated with any Steiner system, and together with their complements form the first known pairs of complementary strongly regular bicirculants which are vertex-transitive but not edge-transitive.
