What can graphs and algebraic structures say to each other?
In the last couple of decades, there has been a big upsurge of research on graphs defined on algebraic structures (groups, rings, vector spaces, semigroups, and others). Much of this has concerned detailed graph-theoretic properties and parameters of these graphs. However, my concern here is to cons...

| Summary: | In the last couple of decades, there has been a big upsurge of research on graphs defined on algebraic structures (groups, rings, vector spaces, semigroups, and others). Much of this has concerned detailed graph-theoretic properties and parameters of these graphs. However, my concern here is to consider how this research can benefit both graph theory and algebra. I am mainly concerned with graphs on groups, and will give three types of interaction between graphs and groups, with examples of each taken from recent research. The paper also contains a number of open questions. This talk was presented at the conference ICRAGAA 2023 held in Thrissur in Kerala, India. I am grateful to the organizers of the conference, and also to Ambat Vijayakumar and Aparna Lakshmanan S, who organized a very productive on-line research discussion on graphs and groups in 2021. Much of what I report has its roots in that discussion. I am grateful to them for organizing this discussion, as well as to the conference organizers, and all my many coauthors. |
