Abstract

Suppose that G is a group, X a subset of G and pi a set of natural numbers. The pi-product graph pi(G,X) has X as its vertex set and distinct vertices are joined by an edge if the order of their product is in pi. If X is a set of involutions, then pi(G,X) is called a pi-product involution graph. In this paper we study the connectivity and diameters of pi(G,X) when G is a finite symmetric group and X is a G-conjugacy class of involutions.
