Abstract

A graph is vertex-transitive or symmetric if its automorphism group acts transitively on vertices or ordered adjacent pairs of the graph respectively.Let p be a prime.Xu et al.[Chin.Ann.Math.,2004,25B(4):545-554]classified the connected cubic symmetric graphs of order 4p.This paper gives a classification of connected cubic vertex-transitive graphs of order 4p.As a result,the number of pairwise non-isomorphic connected cubic vertex-transitive graph of order 4p is 2 for p = 2,4 for p = 3,8 for p = 5,6 for p = 7, 5 +p-3/2 for p≥11 with 4 |(p-1) and 3 + p-3/2 for p11 with 4(p -1).
