Abstract

Let GG be a group and let SS be an inverse-closed and identity-free generating set of GG. The \emph{Cayley graph} \Cay(G,S)\Cay(G,S) has vertex-set GG and two vertices uu and vv are adjacent if and only if uv1Suv^{-1}\in S. Let CAYd(n)CAY_d(n) be the number of isomorphism classes of dd-valent Cayley graphs of order at most nn. We show that log(CAYd(n))Θ(d(logn)2)\log(CAY_d(n))\in\Theta (d(\log n)^2), as nn\to\infty. We also obtain some stronger results in the case d=3d=3.
