A simple graph is called semisymmetric if it is regular and edge-transitive but not vertex-transitive. Let p be an arbitrary prime. Folkman proved [Regular line-symmetric graphs, J. Combin. Theory 3 (1967) 215-232] that there is no semisymmetric graph of order 2p or 2p 2 . In this paper an extension of his result in the case of cubic graphs of order 20p 2 is given. We prove that there is no connected cubic semisymmetric graph of order 20p 2 or, equivalently, that every connected cubic edge-transitive graph of order 20p 2 is necessarily symmetric.

A simple graph is called semisymmetric if it is regular and edge-transitive but not vertex-transitive. In this paper we classify all connected cubic semisymmetric graphs of order 20p , p prime.
“…The class of semisymmetric graphs was introduced by Folkman [7] who constructed several infinite families of such graphs and posed eight open problems which spurred the interest in this topic, see [5,6,10,12,[15][16][17][18] for example. This paper deals with semisymmetric cubic graphs of square-free order.…”
a b s t r a c tA regular graph is said to be semisymmetric if it is edge-transitive but not vertex-transitive. In this paper, we give a complete list of connected semisymmetric cubic graph of square-free order, which consists of one single graph of order 210 and four infinite families of such graphs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
