For a finite group $G$, denote by $\alpha(G)$ the minimum number of vertices of any graph $\Gamma$ having $\text{Aut}(\Gamma)\cong G$. In this paper, we prove that $\alpha(G)\leq |G|$, with specified exceptions. The exceptions include four…
Let $k \geq 1$ be an integer and $n=3k-1$. Let $\mathbb{Z}_n$ denote the additive group of integers modulo $n$ and let $C$ be the subset of $\mathbb{Z}_n$ consisting of the elements congruent to 1 modulo 3. The Cayley graph…
Let $S$ be a set of transpositions that generates the symmetric group $S_n$, where $n \ge 3$. The transposition graph $T(S)$ is defined to be the graph with vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ and with vertices $i$ and $j$ being adjacent in $T(S)$…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $S$ be a subset of $G.$ A bi-Cayley graph $\BCay(G,S)$ is a simple and an undirected graph with vertex-set $G\times\{1,2\}$ and edge-set $\{\{(g,1),(sg,2)\}\mid g\in G, s\in S\}$. A bi-Cayley graph $\BCay(G,S)$…
For a graph $\Gamma=(V(\Gamma),E(\Gamma))$, a subset $C$ of $V(\Gamma)$ is called an $(\alpha,\beta)$-regular set in $\Gamma$, if every vertex of $C$ is adjacent to exactly $\alpha$ vertices of $C$ and every vertex of $V(\Gamma)\setminus C$…
We study the group $IAut(A)$ generated by the inertial automorphisms of an abelian group $A$, that is, automorphisms $\gamma$ with the property that each subgroup $H$ of $A$ has finite index in the subgroup generated by $H$ and $H\gamma$.…
Let $S$ be a set of transpositions such that the girth of the transposition graph of $S$ is at least 5. It is shown that the automorphism group of the Cayley graph of the permutation group $H$ generated by $S$ is the semidirect product…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting transitively on $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, and let $G=\mathrm{Cay}(\Gamma,T)$ be a Cayley graph of $\Gamma$. The graph $G$ is called normal if $T$ is closed under conjugation. In this paper, we obtain an…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $n$. For any subset $B$ of $G$ with $B=-B$, the Cayley graph $G_B$ is a graph on vertex set $G$ in which $ij$ is an edge if and only if $i-j\in B.$ It was shown by Ben Green that when $G$ is a…
We consider quasirandom properties for Cayley graphs of finite abelian groups. We show that having uniform edge-distribution (i.e., small discrepancy) and having large eigenvalue gap are equivalent properties for such Cayley graphs, even if…
The Cayley sum graph $\Gamma_A$ of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_n$ is defined to have vertex set $\mathbb{Z}_n$ and an edge between two distinct vertices $x, y \in \mathbb{Z}_n$ if $x + y \in A$. Green and Morris proved that if the set $A$…
The Cayley sum graph $\Gamma_S$ of a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_n$ is defined on the vertex set $\mathbb{Z}_n$, with an edge between distinct $x, y \in \mathbb{Z}_n$ if $x + y \in S$. Campos, Dahia, and Marciano have recently shown that if…
Let $S_n$ and $A_n$ denote the symmetric group and alternating group of degree $n$ with $n\geq 3$, respectively. Let $S$ be the set of all $3$-cycles in $S_n$. The \emph{complete alternating group graph}, denoted by $CAG_n$, is defined as…
We present simple graph-theoretic characterizations of Cayley graphs for monoids, semigroups and groups. We extend these characterizations to commutative monoids, semilattices, and abelian groups.
These lecture notes provide an introduction to automorphism groups of graphs. Some special families of graphs are then discussed, especially the families of Cayley graphs generated by transposition sets.
In this paper we are interested in the asymptotic enumeration of Cayley graphs. It has previously been shown that almost every Cayley digraph has the smallest possible automorphism group: that is, it is a digraphical regular representation…
In this paper, we construct a family of quasi-strongly regular Cayley graphs $\Gamma_H(G)$ which is defined on a finite group $G$ with respect to a subgroup $H$ of $G$. We also compute its full automorphism group and characterize various…
The family of generalized Paley graphs of prime power order $q$ and degree $(q-1)/k$ is studied. It is shown that the automorphism group of a graph in this family is a subgroup of ${\mathrm{A\Gamma L}}(1,q)$ whenever $q$ is sufficiently…
This article is dedicated to the study of the acylindrical hyperbolicity of automorphism groups of graph products of groups. Our main result is that, if $\Gamma$ is a finite graph which contains at least two vertices and is not a join and…
We construct a 2-generated group $\Gamma $ such that its Cayley graph possesses finite connected subsets with arbitrarily big finite Heesch number.
