1. Basic tetravalent oriented graphs of independent-cycle typeNemanja Poznanović, Cheryl E. Praeger, 2025, original scientific article Abstract: The family OG(4) consisting of graph-group pairs (Γ, G), where Γ is a finite, connected, 4-valent graph admitting a G-vertex-, and G-edge-transitive, but not G-arc-transitive action, has recently been examined using a normal quotient methodology. A subfamily of OG(4) has been identified as ‘basic’, due to the fact that all members of OG(4) are normal covers of at least one basic pair. We provide an explicit classification of those basic pairs (Γ, G) which have at least two independent cyclic G-normal quotients (these are G-normal quotients which are not extendable to a common cyclic normal quotient). Keywords: half-arc-transitive, vertex-transitive graph, edge-transitive graph, normal cover, cycle graph Published in RUP: 21.10.2025; Views: 874; Downloads: 5

8. On the split structure of lifted groupsAleksander Malnič, Rok Požar, 2016, original scientific article Abstract: Let ▫$\wp \colon \tilde{X} \to X$▫ be a regular covering projection of connected graphs with the group of covering transformations ▫$\rm{CT}_\wp$▫ being abelian. Assuming that a group of automorphisms ▫$G \le \rm{Aut} X$▫ lifts along $\wp$ to a group ▫$\tilde{G} \le \rm{Aut} \tilde{X}$▫, the problem whether the corresponding exact sequence ▫$\rm{id} \to \rm{CT}_\wp \to \tilde{G} \to G \to \rm{id}$▫ splits is analyzed in detail in terms of a Cayley voltage assignment that reconstructs the projection up to equivalence. In the above combinatorial setting the extension is given only implicitly: neither ▫$\tilde{G}$▫ nor the action ▫$G\to \rm{Aut} \rm{CT}_\wp$▫ nor a 2-cocycle ▫$G \times G \to \rm{CT}_\wp$▫, are given. Explicitly constructing the cover ▫$\tilde{X}$▫ together with ▫$\rm{CT}_\wp$▫ and ▫$\tilde{G}$▫ as permutation groups on ▫$\tilde{X}$▫ is time and space consuming whenever ▫$\rm{CT}_\wp$▫ is large; thus, using the implemented algorithms (for instance, HasComplement in Magma) is far from optimal. Instead, we show that the minimal required information about the action and the 2-cocycle can be effectively decoded directly from voltages (without explicitly constructing the cover and the lifted group); one could then use the standard method by reducing the problem to solving a linear system of equations over the integers. However, along these lines we here take a slightly different approach which even does not require any knowledge of cohomology. Time and space complexity are formally analyzed whenever ▫$\rm{CT}_\wp$▫ is elementary abelian.
