Symmetric graphs of diameter 2 arising from the classical groups

at 12noon Tuesday 22nd June in MLR2

Abstract: Let V be a vector space of dimension d over a field of q
elements, and let H be an irreducible subgroup of GL(V). Let S be an
H-orbit consisting of nonzero vectors, satisfying -S = S, and let Gamma=
Cay(V,S). Then Gamma is G-symmetric, where G = V  times H. Our goal is
to find the graphs Cay(V,S) which have diameter 2, that is, those for
which V  is contained in S+S. In particular, we shall consider the case
where H is a classical group.



All welcome.
