FolkmanGraph

The Folkman graph is a semisymmetric graph that has the minimum possible number of nodes (20) (Skiena 1990, p. 186). It is implemented in the Wolfram Language as GraphData["FolkmanGraph"] and illustrated above in several symmetric embeddings.

FolkmanGraphLCF

The Folkman graph has eight distinct generalized LCF notations, three with exponent 5 and five with exponent 1, illustrated above.

The Folkman graph has graph spectrum

(-4)^1(-sqrt(6))^40^(10)(sqrt(6))^44^1.
