We characterize the finitely generated groups that admit a Cayley graph whose only automorphisms are the translations, confirming a conjecture by Watkins from 1976. The proof relies on random walk techniques. As a consequence, every…

Suppose G is a nilpotent, finite group. We show that if {a,b} is any 2-element generating set of G, then the corresponding Cayley digraph Cay(G;a,b) has a hamiltonian path. This implies there is a hamiltonian path in every connected Cayley…

We determine two new infinite families of Cayley graphs that admit colour-preserving automorphisms that do not come from the group action. By definition, this means that these Cayley graphs fail to have the CCA (Cayley Colour Automorphism)…

We introduce the notion of a symmetric basis of a vector space equipped with a quadratic form, and provide a sufficient and necessary condition for the existence to such a basis. Symmetric bases are then used to study Cayley graphs of…

In this paper, we give a characterization for a class of edge-transitive Cayley graphs, and provide methods for constructing Cayley graphs with certain symmetry properties. Also this study leads to construct and characterise a new family of…

Vertex-stabilizers of trivalent edge-transitive graphs have been classified by Tutte, Goldschmidt and some others in several previous papers. Tetravalent half-arc-transitive graphs form an important class of tetravalent edge-transitive…

We generalise the standard constructions of a Cayley graph in terms of a group presentation by allowing some vertices to obey different relators than others. The resulting notion of presentation allows us to represent every vertex…

In \cite{Chan95}, the authors classified the 2-extendable abelian Cayley graphs and posed the problem of characterizing all 2-extendable Cayley graphs. We first show that a connected bipartite Cayley (vertex-transitive) graph is…

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…

We show that if G is a finite group whose commutator subgroup [G,G] has order 2p, where p is an odd prime, then every connected Cayley graph on G has a hamiltonian cycle.

Let $n >3$ and $ 0< k < \frac{n}{2} $ be integers. In this paper, we investigate some algebraic properties of the line graph of the graph $ {Q_n}(k,k+1) $ where $ {Q_n}(k,k+1) $ is the subgraph of the hypercube $Q_n$ which is induced by the…

We construct the first infinite families of locally arc transitive graphs with the property that the automorphism group has two orbits on vertices and is quasiprimitive on exactly one orbit, of twisted wreath type. This work contributes to…

A CIS graph is a graph in which every maximal stable set and every maximal clique intersect. A graph is well-covered if all its maximal stable sets are of the same size, co-well-covered if its complement is well-covered, and…

A subgroup of the automorphism group of a graph acts {\em half-arc-transitively} on the graph if it acts transitively on the vertex-set and on the edge-set of the graph but not on the arc-set of the graph. If the full automorphism group of…
