Title: Properties of the G-graph of a Group

Director: Jennifer R. Daniel

Email: jennifer.daniel@lamar.edu

Dates of Program: July 7 - August 15, 2008

Summary: This National Research Experience for Undergraduates Program (NREUP) is designed to allow undergraduate students the opportunity of working on an original research project. Students will continue the 2007 research focus of studying properties of the G-graph of a group. Problems that the students will explore include determining the existence of Hamiltonian and Eulerian paths and circuits in the graphs of abelian groups of rank n, the symmetric group of n letters, the quaternion group, etc. and exploring planarity and crossing numbers of G-graphs.
