COMMENTS
A Y-graph Y(n:i,j,k) has 4n vertices arranged in four segments of n vertices. Let the vertices be v_{x,y} for x=0,1,2,3 and y in the integers modulo n. The edges are v_{1,y}v_{1,y+i}, v_{2,y}v_{2,y+j}, v_{2,y}v_{2,y+k} and v_{0,y}v_{x,y}, where y=0,1,...,n-1 and x=1,2,3 and the subscript addition is performed modulo n.
