The -arrangement
graph
is defined as the graph on the vertex set consisting
of the permutations of
containing at most
elements where vertices are connected by edges whenever two
permutations differ in exactly one of their
positions. The
-arrangement graph has
nodes, is regular
of vertex degree
,
-connected, has graph diameter
, and is vertex-Vertex-Transitive
Graph and edge-transitive (Day and Tripathi
1992).
The arrangement graph is the line graph of the
-crown graph.
Precomputed properties of arrangement graphs are available in the Wolfram Language as GraphData["ArrangementGraph",

Special cases of
