## Abstract We prove that every connected vertexโtransitive graph on __n__ โฅ 4 vertices has a cycle longer than (3__n__)^1/2^. The correct order of magnitude of the longest cycle seems to be a very hard question.

Let G be a group acting symmetrically on a graph 2, let G, be a subgroup of G minimal among those that act symmetrically on 8, and let G2 be a subgroup of G, maximal among those normal subgroups of GI which contain no member except 1 which fixes a vertex of Z. The most precise result of this paper i
The Petersen graph on 10 vertices is the smallest example of a vertex-transitive graph that is not a Cayley graph. In 1983, D. MaruSiE asked, "For what values of n does there exist such a graph on n vertices?" We give several new constructions of families of vertex-transitive graphs that are not Cay
## Abstract In 1983, the second author [D. Maruลกiฤ, Ars Combinatoria 16B (1983), 297โ302] asked for which positive integers __n__ there exists a nonโCayley vertexโtransitive graph on __n__ vertices. (The term __nonโCayley numbers__ has later been given to such integers.) Motivated by this problem,
The maximum genus of all vertex-transitive graphs is computed. It is proved that a k-valent vertex-transitive graph of girth g is upper-embeddable whenever k 3 4 or g 2 4. Non-upper-embeddable vertex-transitive graphs are characterized. A particular attention is paid to Cayley graphs. Groups for wh
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 / โ S and S = {s -1 | s โ S}. The Cayley graph Cay(G, S) on G with respect to S
