Constructions for arc-transitive digraphs

Abstract

AbstractA number of constructions are given for arc-transitive digraphs, based on modifications of permutation representations of finite groups. In particular, it is shown that for every positive integer s and for any transitive permutation group p of degree k, there are infinitely many examples of a finite k-regular digraph with a group of automorphisms acting transitively on s-arcs (but not on (s + 1)-arcs), such that the stabilizer of a vertex induces the action of P on the out-neighbour set.
