## Abstract In 1983, the second author [D. Marušič, Ars Combinatoria 16B (1983), 297–302] asked for which positive integers __n__ there exists a non‐Cayley vertex‐transitive graph on __n__ vertices. (The term __non‐Cayley numbers__ has later been given to such integers.) Motivated by this problem,

✦ Synopsis
A graph is vertex-transitive or symmetric if its automorphism group acts transitively on vertices or ordered adjacent pairs of vertices of the graph, respectively. Let G be a finite group and S a subset of G such that 1 / ∈ S and S = {s -1 | s ∈ S}. The Cayley graph Cay(G, S) on G with respect to S is defined as the graph with vertex set G and edge set {{g, sg} | g ∈ G, s ∈ S}. Feng and Kwak [J Combin Theory B 97 (2007), 627-646; J Austral Math Soc 81 (2006), 153-164] classified all cubic symmetric graphs of order 4p or 2p 2 and in this article we classify all cubic symmetric graphs of order 2pq, where p and q are distinct odd primes. Furthermore, a classification of all cubic vertex-transitive non-Cayley graphs of order 2pq, which were investigated extensively in the literature, is given. As a result, among others, a classification of cubic vertex-transitive graphs of order 2pq can be deduced.

A graph is __vertex‐transitive__ if its automorphism group acts transitively on vertices of the graph. A vertex‐transitive graph is a __Cayley graph__ if its automorphism group contains a subgroup acting regularly on its vertices. In this article, the tetravalent vertex‐transitive non‐Cayley graphs
This paper completes the determination of all integers of the form pqr (where p, q, and r are distinct primes) for which there exists a vertex-transitive graph on pqr vertices which is not a Cayley graph.
## Abstract A detailed description is given of a recently discovered edge‐transitive but not vertex‐transitive trivalent graph on 112 vertices, which turns out to be the third smallest example of such a semisymmetric cubic graph. This graph has been called the __Ljubljana graph__ by the first autho
