Quartic Vertex-Transitive Graph


QuarticVertex-Transitive

A quartic vertex-transitive graph is a quartic graph that is vertex transitive. Read and Wilson (1988, pp. 164-166) enumerate all connected quartic vertex-transitive graphs on 19 and fewer nodes, some of which are illustrated above.

The quartic symmetric graphs are a special case of the quartic vertex-transitive graphs (i.e., those that are also edge-transitive).

Classes of connected quartic vertex-transitive graphs include the antiprism graphs. Specific cases are summarized in the following table. In particular, Qt31 can be constructed as the distance-3 graph of the Heawood graph or as the Levi graph of the biplane on 7 points (DistanceRegular.org). It is also a distance-regular graph with intersection array {4,3,2;1,2,4} that is also distance-transitive.
