Let f be a function mapping an n dimensional vector space over GF(p) to GF(p). When p is 2, Bernasconi et al. have shown that there is a correspondence between certain properties of f (e.g., if it is bent) and properties of its associated Cayley graph. Analogously, but much earlier, Dillon showed that f is bent if and only if the level curves of f had certain combinatorial properties (again, only when p is 2). The attempt is to investigate an analogous theory when p is greater than 2 using the (apparently new) combinatorial concept of a weighted partial difference set. More precisely, we try to investigate which properties of the Cayley graph of f can be characterized in terms of function-theoretic properties of f, and which function-theoretic properties of f correspond to combinatorial properties of the set of level curves, i.e., the inverse map of f. While the natural generalizations of the Bernasconi correspondence and Dillon correspondence are not true in general, using extensive computations, we are able to determine a classification in some small cases. Our main conjecture is Conjecture 67.

A graph $G$ admitting a group $H$ of automorphisms acting semi-regularly on the vertices with exactly two orbits is called a {em bi-Cayley graph/} over $H$. Such a graph $G$ is called {em normal/} if $H$ is normal in the full automorphism group of $G
$, and {em normal edge-transitive/} if the normaliser of $H$ in the full automorphism group of $G$ is transitive on the edges of $G$. % In this paper, we give a characterisation of normal edge-transitive bi-Cayley graphs, %which form an important subfamily of bi-Cayley graphs, and in particular, we give a detailed description of $2$-arc-transitive normal bi-Cayley graphs. Using this, we investigate three classes of bi-Cayley graphs, namely those over abelian groups, dihedral groups and metacyclic $p$-groups. We find that under certain conditions, `normal edge-transitive is the same as `normal for graphs in these three classes. As a by-product, we obtain a complete classification of all connected trivalent edge-transitive graphs of girth at most $6$, and answer some open questions from the literature about $2$-arc-transitive, half-arc-transitive and semisymmetric graphs.
Let $mathbb{F}_p$ be the finite field of prime order $p$. For any function $f colon mathbb{F}_p{}^n to mathbb{F}_p$, there exists a unique polynomial over $mathbb{F}_p$ having degree at most $p-1$ with respect to each variable which coincides with $f
$. We call it the minimal polynomial of $f$. It is in general a non-trivial task to find a concrete expression of the minimal polynomial of a given function, which has only been worked out for limited classes of functions in the literature. In this paper, we study minimal polynomial expressions of several functions that are closely related to some practically important procedures such as auction and voting.
Following a problem posed by Lovasz in 1969, it is believed that every connected vertex-transitive graph has a Hamilton path. This is shown here to be true for cubic Cayley graphs arising from groups having a $(2,s,3)$-presentation, that is, for grou
ps $G=la a,b| a^2=1, b^s=1, (ab)^3=1, etc. ra$ generated by an involution $a$ and an element $b$ of order $sgeq3$ such that their product $ab$ has order 3. More precisely, it is shown that the Cayley graph $X=Cay(G,{a,b,b^{-1}})$ has a Hamilton cycle when $|G|$ (and thus $s$) is congruent to 2 modulo 4, and has a long cycle missing only two vertices (and thus necessarily a Hamilton path) when $|G|$ is congruent to 0 modulo 4.
We consider the Ihara zeta function $zeta(u,X//G)$ and Artin-Ihara $L$-function of the quotient graph of groups $X//G$, where $G$ is a group acting on a finite graph $X$ with trivial edge stabilizers. We determine the relationship between the primes
of $X$ and $X//G$ and show that $Xto X//G$ can be naturally viewed as an unramified Galois covering of graphs of groups. We show that the $L$-function of $X//G$ evaluated at the regular representation is equal to $zeta(u,X)$ and that $zeta(u,X//G)$ divides $zeta(u,X)$. We derive two-term and three-term determinant formulas for the zeta and $L$-functions, and compute several examples of $L$-functions of edge-free quotients of the tetrahedron graph $K_4$.
Let $G$ be a finitely generated group acting faithfully and properly discontinuously by homeomorphisms on a planar surface $X subseteq mathbb{S}^2$. We prove that $G$ admits such an action that is in addition co-compact, provided we can replace $X$ b
y another surface $Y subseteq mathbb{S}^2$. We also prove that if a group $H$ has a finitely generated Cayley (multi-)graph $C$ covariantly embeddable in $mathbb{S}^2$, then $C$ can be chosen so as to have no infinite path on the boundary of a face. The proofs of these facts are intertwined, and the classes of groups they define coincide. In the orientation-preserving case they are exactly the (isomorphism types of) finitely generated Kleinian function groups. We construct a finitely generated planar Cayley graph whose group is not in this class. In passing, we observe that the Freudenthal compactification of every planar surface is homeomorphic to the sphere.
