It is shown that there are groups $\Gamma$ with finite generating sets $S$ such that the adjacency operator of the Cayley graph ${\rm Cay}(\Gamma,S)$ is a disjoint union of $N$ intervals, for arbitrarily large integers $N$.

We show that the lamplighter group L has a system of generators for which the spectrum of the discrete Laplacian on the Cayley graph is a union of an interval and a countable set of isolated points accumulating to a point outside this…

We prove that there is an absolute constant $C>0$ so that for every natural $n$ there exists a triangle-free \emph{regular} graph with no independent set of size at least $C\sqrt{n\log n}$.

Quantum symmetry of a graph $C^{*}$-algebra $C^{*}(\Gamma)$ corresponding to a finite graph $\Gamma$ has been explored by several mathematicians within different categories in the past few years. In this article, we establish that there are…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group, let $E$ be a subset of $G$, and form the Cayley (directed) graph of $G$ with connecting set $E$. We explain how, for various matrices associated to this graph, the spectrum can be used to give information…

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite graph and let $A(\Gamma)$ be its adjacency matrix. Then $\Gamma$ is {\it singular} if $A(\Gamma)$ is singular. The singularity of graphs is of certain interest in graph theory and algebraic combinatorics. Here we…

For a graph $\Gamma=(V\Gamma,E\Gamma)$, a subset $D$ of $V\Gamma$ is a perfect code in $\Gamma$ if every vertex of $\Gamma$ is dominated by exactly one vertex in $D$. In this paper, we classify all connected quartic Cayley graphs on…

Let $\Gamma$ be a graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$. A subset $C$ of $V(\Gamma)$ is called a perfect code in $\Gamma$ if $C$ is an independent set of $\Gamma$ and every vertex in $V(\Gamma)\setminus C$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in…

The Laplacian of a (weighted) Cayley graph on the Weyl group $W(B_n)$ is a $N\times N$ matrix with $N = 2^n n!$ equal to the order of the group. We show that for a class of (weighted) generating sets, its spectral gap (lowest nontrivial…

The unitary Cayley graph of $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$, denoted $X_n$, is the graph on $\{0,\dots,n-1\}$ where vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if and only if $\gcd(a-b,n) = 1$. We answer a question of Defant and Iyer by constructing a…
