Cyclotomic graphs and perfect codes
Abstract
We study two families of cyclotomic graphs and perfect codes in them. They are Cayley graphs on the additive group of , with connection sets and , respectively, where () is an th primitive root of unity, a nonzero ideal of , and Euler's totient function. We call them the th cyclotomic graph and the second kind th cyclotomic graph, and denote them by and , respectively. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for to be a perfect -code in and a necessary condition for to be such a code in , where is an integer and an ideal of containing . In the case when , is known as an Eisenstein-Jacobi and Gaussian networks, respectively, and we obtain necessary conditions for to be a perfect -code in , where with dividing . In the literature such conditions are known to be sufficient when and under an additional condition. We give a classification of all first kind Frobenius circulants of valency and prove that they are all th cyclotomic graphs, where is an odd prime. Such graphs belong to a large family of Cayley graphs that are efficient for routing and gossiping.
