it would be nice to have an example of a regular graph that is not vertex-transitive, however, I don't know any. Evilbu 20:43, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is precisely what I came here looking for!! there are semisymmetric examples at mathworld, but these are edge transitive. Should be able to find a non-vertex-transitive regular graph with fewer than 20 vertices!MotherFunctor
The (connected) counterexample with the least number of vertices is an order-7 quartic graph. Consider the graph consisting of a disjoint 3-cycle and 4-cycle. Its complement graph is the desired example. This graph is not planar, having crossing number 2. The smallest planar example is an order-8 cubic graph, so has fewer edges than the first one. I don't know how this stuff can be worked into the article, because it's original research. Ntsimp (talk) 21:36, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Automorphism[edit]

Why is the automorphism written as V(G) --> V(G)? This seems as if it is just an automorphism (i.e. bijection) of the underlying vertex sets. It should be G --> G, right? ---oo- (talk) 09:14, 17 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
