A construction of 2-arc-transitive non-solvable covers of complete graphs

Jiyong Chen, Cai Heng Li, Ci Xuan Wu, Yan Zhou Zhu

Abstract

We construct connected $2$-arc-transitive covers of complete graphs with non-abelian characteristically simple transformation groups. This solves the existence problem for non-solvable $2$-arc-transitive covers of complete graphs.

A construction of 2-arc-transitive non-solvable covers of complete graphs

Abstract

We construct connected -arc-transitive covers of complete graphs with non-abelian characteristically simple transformation groups. This solves the existence problem for non-solvable -arc-transitive covers of complete graphs.

Key Result

Theorem 1.2

Let $\Sigma={\mathrm{K}}_n$ be the complete graph of order $n\geqslant 4$. Then, for any finite non-abelian simple group $T$, there exist connected $(X,2)$-arc-transitive covers of $\Sigma$, where $X=T^d{.}{\mathrm{S}}_n$ for some integer $d$, and $T^d$ is minimal normal in $X$. $\blacktriangleleft$
