Title: Quotient-complete arc-transitive latin square graphs

Time and place: 4pm 18 May 2018, Weatherburn LT

Abstract: This talk deals with an open problem in my PhD thesis, which investigated arc-transitive diameter two graphs. In that thesis, via normal quotient reduction, we identified two main families of such graphs, namely vertex-quasiprimitive graphs and the so-called quotient-complete graphs. The focus of this talk is the quotient-complete case with at most two complete normal quotients, and the aim is to find an infinite family of examples that fall under this case. In particular we consider latin square graphs corresponding to the Cayley table of finite groups.

There will be cake in the  Mathematics and Statistics tea room at 15:40. The seminar starts at  16:00, and after 17:05 we go to the UniClub for a  drink. 

All welcome.
