The group of the countable universal graph
@article{Truss1985TheGO, title={The group of the countable universal graph}, author={John Kenneth Truss}, journal={Mathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society}, year={1985}, volume={98}, pages={213 - 245} }
Let C be a set with at least two, and at most ℵ0, members, and for any set X let [X]2 denote the set of its 2-element subsets. If Γ is a countable set, and Fc is a function from [Γ]2 into C, then the structure Γc = (Γ, Fc) is called the countable universal C-coloured graph if the following condition is satisfied: Whenever α is a map from a finite subset of Γ into C there is xεΓ–dom α such that (∀yεdom α) Fc {x, y} = α(y).

Abstract We establish links between countable algebraically closed graphs and the endomorphisms of the countable universal graph R. As a consequence we show that, for any countable graph Γ, there are…

We show that any free product of two (non-trivial) countable groups, one of them being infinite, admits a faithful and homogeneous action on the Random Graph. We also show that a large class of HNN…

Abstract We discuss the solubility of equations of the form w = g, where w is a word (an element of a free group FX ) and g is an element of a given group G. A word for which this equation is soluble…
