Automorphism groups of endomorphism monoids of -unit -valent circulant digraphs

Chenhui Lv

Let $G=\Cay(\mathbb{Z}_n,S)$ be a -valent circulant digraph with connection set , where and . Determining the automorphism group…

The Aldous property for normal Cayley graphs on symmetric groups

Chenhui Lv, Sanming Zhou

Aldous' spectral gap conjecture states that the random walk and the interchange process on any connected graph have the same spectral gap, or, equivalently, the second largest eige…

Amply regular graphs with close to half the valency and group divisible designs

Wei Jin, Jack H. Koolen, Chenhui Lv

In this paper, we classify connected amply regular graphs with diameter and parameters satisfying , where is odd. We prove tha…

Kleitman's theorem over vector spaces: parity phenomena in canonical and global stability

Chenhui Lv, Zixiang Xu

In 1966, Kleitman determined the maximum size of a family of subsets of with bounded symmetric difference. Liao, Liu and Yan recently established a vector-space analogue in t…

On the characterization of geometric distance-regular graphs

Chenhui Lv, Jack H. Koolen

In 2010, Koolen and Bang proposed the following conjecture: For a fixed integer , any geometric distance-regular graph with smallest eigenvalue , diameter …

Comparing classes of highly symmetric graphs: From -arc-transitive to -distance-transitive

Wei Jin, Jack H. Koolen, Chenhui Lv

A -distance-transitive graph is a vertex-transitive graph whose vertex stabilizer is transitive on both the first- and second-step neighborhoods. This concept simultaneously gen…

An improved bound for strongly regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue

Jack Koolen, Chenhui Lv, Greg Markowsky +1

In 1979, Neumaier gave a bound on in terms of and , where is the smallest eigenvalue of a primitive strongly regular graph, unless the graph in question belongs to…

A Bose-Laskar-Hoffman theory for -bounded graphs with fixed smallest eigenvalue

Jack H. Koolen, Hong-Jun Ge, Chenhui Lv +1

In 2018, by Ramsey and Hoffman theory, Koolen, Yang, and Yang presented a structural result on graphs with smallest eigenvalue at least and large minimum degree. In this study…

A characterization of the Grassmann graphs: one missing case

Jack H. Koolen, Chenhui Lv, Alexander L. Gavrilyuk

We prove that the Grassmann graphs , , are characterized by their intersection numbers, which settles one of the few remaining cases.

Bounding the parameter of a distance-regular graph with classical parameters

Chenhui Lv, Jack H. Koolen

Let be a distance-regular graph with classical parameters satisfying and . Let . In 1999, K. Metsch showed that ther…
