Abstract: A complete classification of 2-arc-transitive dihedrants, that is, Cayley graphs of dihedral groups is given, thus completing the study of these graphs initiated by the third author in [D. Marušič, On 2-arc-transitivity of Cayley graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 87 (2003) 162-196]. The list consists of the following graphs: (i) cycles ▫$C_{2n},\; n \ge 3$▫; (ii) complete graphs ▫$K_{2n}, \; n \ge 3$▫; (iii) complete bipartite graphs ▫$K_{n,n}, \; n \ge 3$▫; (iv) complete bipartite graphs minus a matching ▫$K_{n,n} - nK_2, \; n \ge 3$▫; (v) incidence and nonincidence graphs ▫$B(H_{11})$▫ and ▫$B'(H_{11})$▫ of the Hadamard design on 11 points; (vi) incidence and nonincidence graphs ▫$B(PG(d,q))$▫ and ▫$B'(PG(d,q))$▫, with ▫$d \ge 2$▫ and ▫$q$▫ a prime power, of projective spaces; (vii) and an infinite family of regular ▫${\mathbb{Z}}_d$▫-covers ▫$K_{q+1}^{2d}$▫ of ▫$K_{q+1, q+1} - (q+1)K_2$▫, where ▫$q \ge 3$▫ is an odd prime power and ▫$d$▫ is a divisor of ▫$\frac{q-1}{2}$▫ and ▫$q-1$▫, respectively, depending on whether ▫$q \equiv 1 \pmod{4}$▫ or ▫$q \equiv 3 \pmod{4}$▫ obtained by identifying the vertex set of the base graph with two copies of the projective line ▫$PG(1,q)$▫, where the missing matching consists of all pairs of the form ▫$[i,i']$▫, ▫$i \in PG(1,q)$▫, and the edge ▫$[i,j']$▫ carries trivial voltage if ▫$i=\infty$▫ or ▫$j=\infty$▫, and carries voltage ▫$\bar{h} \in {\mathbb{Z}}_d$▫, the residue class of ▫$h \in {\mathbb{Z}}_d$▫, if and only if ▫$i-j = \theta^h$▫, where ▫$\theta$▫ generates the multiplicative group ▫${\mathbb{F}}_q^\ast$▫ of the Galois field ▫${\mathbb{F}}_q$▫.

Abstract: A skew-morphism of a group ▫$H$▫ is a permutation ▫$\sigma$▫ of its elements fixing the identity such that for every ▫$x, y \in H$▫ there exists an integer ▫$k$▫ such that ▫$\sigma (xy) = \sigma (x)\sigma k(y)$▫. It follows that group automorphisms are particular skew-morphisms. Skew-morphisms appear naturally in investigations of maps on surfaces with high degree of symmetry, namely, they are closely related to regular Cayley maps and to regular embeddings of the complete bipartite graphs. The aim of this paper is to investigate skew-morphisms of cyclic groups in the context of the associated Schur rings. We prove the following decomposition theorem about skew-morphisms of cyclic groups ▫$\mathbb Z_n$▫: if ▫$n = n_{1}n_{2}$▫ such that ▫$(n_{1}n_{2}) = 1$▫, and ▫$(n_{1}, \varphi (n_{2})) = (\varphi (n_{1}), n_{2}) = 1$▫ (▫$\varphi$▫ denotes Euler's function) then all skew-morphisms ▫$\sigma$▫ of ▫$\mathbb Z_n$▫ are obtained as ▫$\sigma = \sigma_1 \times \sigma_2$▫, where ▫$\sigma_i$▫ are skew-morphisms of ▫$\mathbb Z_{n_i}, \; i = 1, 2$▫. As a consequence we obtain the following result: All skew-morphisms of ▫$\mathbb Z_n$▫ are automorphisms of ▫$\mathbb Z_n$▫ if and only if ▫$n = 4$▫ or ▫$(n, \varphi(n)) = 1$▫.

Abstract: A distance-transitive graph is a graph in which for every two ordered pairs ofvertices ▫$(u,v)$▫ and ▫$(u',v')$▫ such that the distance between ▫$u$▫ and ▫$v$▫ is equal to the distance between ▫$u'$▫ and ▫$v'$▫ there exists an automorphism of the graph mapping ▫$u$▫ to ▫$u'$▫ and ▫$v$▫ to ▫$v'$▫. A semiregular element of a permutation group is anon-identity element having all cycles of equal length in its cycle decomposition. It is shown that every distance-transitive graph admits a semiregular automorphism.

Abstract: It is shown that a minimal normal subgroup of a transitive permutation group of square-free degree in its induced action is simple and quasiprimitive, with three exceptions related to ▫$A_5$▫, ▫$A_7$▫, and PSL(2,29). Moreover, it is shown that a minimal normal subgroup of a 2-closed permutation group of square-free degree in its induced action is simple. As an almost immediate consequence, it follows that a 2-closed transitive permutation group of square-free degree contains a semiregular element of prime order, thus giving a partial affirmative answer to the conjecture that all 2-closed transitive permutation groups contain such an element (see [D. Marušic, On vertex symmetric digraphs,Discrete Math. 36 (1981) 69-81; P.J. Cameron (Ed.), Problems from the fifteenth British combinatorial conference, Discrete Math. 167/168 (1997) 605-615]).
