title: Presentations for (G,s)-transitive graphs of small valency
abstract: Given a group G , a subgroup H and an element a ∈ G , we define Γ( G, H, a ) to be the graph on the set of left-cosets of H in G , where two left-cosets g 1 H and g 2 H are adjacent whenever . We will consider this construction only in the case that The first of these conditions assures that adjacency is a symmetric relation (i.e. that Γ( G, H, a ) is an undirected graph) and the second assures that Γ( G, H, a ) is connected.

title: Permutation groups with projective unitary subconstituents
abstract: AssTRAcT. Let r be a finite directed graph with vertex set V(I) and edge set EQ7) and let G be a subgroup of aut(I) which we assume to act transitively on both V(r) and E(r). Suppose that for some prime power q, the stabilizer G(x) of a vertex x induces on both {yI(x,y) E E(r)) and {wl(w, x) E E)} a group lying between PSU(3, q2) and Pr1U(3, q2). It is shown that if G acts primitively on V(I), then for each edge (x, y), the subgroup of G(x) fixing every vertex in {wI(x, w) or (y, w) E E(r)) is trivial.

title: A Geometric Characterization of Certain Groups of Lie Type
abstract: Let r be an undirected graph with vertex set V(r) and edge set E(r) and let G be a subgroup of Aut (r). For each {x, y} E E(r), we denote by G{x, y} the stabilizer of {x, y} in G (which mayor may not contain elements exchanging the vertices x and y). For each x E V(r) we denote by r(x) the set of vertices adjacent to x, by G(x) the stabilizer of x in G and, for each i E N, by Gi(x) the subgroup {a E Gla E G(u) for all u E V(r) with a(x, u) "'" i} where a(x, u) denotes the distance from x to u. An s-path (for sEN) is an (s + I)-tuple (xo, Xl. .•• , xs ) of vertices such that Xi E r(Xi-l) if 1"", i "'" s and Xi ¥Xi-Z if 2"", i "'" s. Let G(xo, ... , xs ) = G(xo) n··· n G(xs ) and Gi(xo, ... , xs ) = Gi(xo) n· .. n Gi(xs ) for each s-path (xo, ... , xs ) and each i E N. If H is any group acting on a set X, we denote by H X the permutation group on X induced by H. . In  we proved the following result.

title: Bifurcation in difference approximations to two-point boundary value problems
abstract: Numerical methods for bifurcation problems of the form (*) LyAXf(y), By =0, where f(0) = 0 and f'(0) * 0, are considered. Here y is a scalar function, X is a real scalar, L is a linear differential operator and By = 0 represents some linear homogeneous two-point boundary conditions. Under certain assumptions, it is shown that if (*) is replaced by an appropriate difference scheme, then there exists a unique branch of nontrivial solutions of the discrete problem in a neighborhood of a branch of nontrivial solutions of (*) bifurcating from the trivial solution and that the discrete branch converges to the continuous one. Error estimates are derived and an illustrative numerical example is included.

title: The convergence of shooting methods
abstract: Shooting methods for nonlinear boundary value problems are examined. It is shown that the methods converge whenever the problem is well posed in the sense that the solution to be computed is isolated.
