In this paper we study random induced subgraphs of Cayley graphs of the symmetric group induced by an arbitrary minimal generating set of transpositions. A random induced subgraph of this Cayley graph is obtained by selecting permutations…
This paper deals with the Cayley graph $\mathrm{Cay}(\mathrm{Sym}_n,T_n),$ where the generating set consists of all block transpositions. A motivation for the study of these particular Cayley graphs comes from current research in…
Let $S_n$ and $A_{n}$ denote the symmetric and alternating group on the set $\{1,.., n\},$ respectively. In this paper we are interested in the second largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{2}(\Gamma)$ of the Cayley graph $\Gamma=Cay(G,H)$ over…
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…
The Kneser graph $K(n, k)$ has as vertices all $k$-element subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n \}$ and an edge between any two vertices that are disjoint. If $n=2k+1$, then $K(n, k)$ is called an odd graph. Let $ n >4$ and $1< k < \frac{n}{2} $. In…
Aldous' spectral gap conjecture states that the second largest eigenvalue of any connected Cayley graph on the symmetric group Sn with respect to a set of transpositions is achieved by the standard representation of Sn. This celebrated…
Let $A_n$ denote the alternating group of degree $n$ with $n\geq 3$. The alternating group graph $AG_n$, extended alternating group graph $EAG_n$ and complete alternating group graph $CAG_n$ are the Cayley graphs $\mathrm{Cay}(A_n,T_1)$,…
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…
Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ letters. The $k$-point fixing graph $\mathcal{F}(n,k)$ is defined to be the graph with vertex set $S_n$ and two vertices $g,h$ of $\mathcal{F}(n,k)$ are joined by an edge, if and only if $gh^{-1}$…
We show that the star graph defined as the Cayley graph of ${\mathfrak S}_{n+1}$ generated by the star transpositions is an ${\mathfrak S}_n$-cover of the complete graph $K_{n+1}$, which is known to have fine spectral properties. In the…
The Star graph $S_n$, $n\ge 3$, is the Cayley graph on the symmetric group $Sym_n$ generated by the set of transpositions $\{(12),(13),\ldots,(1n)\}$. In this work we study eigenfunctions of $S_n$ corresponding to the second largest…

An interesting fact is that most of the known connected $2$-arc-transitive nonnormal Cayley graphs of small valency on finite simple groups are $(\mathrm{A}_{n+1},2)$-arc-transitive Cayley graphs on $\mathrm{A}_n$. This motivates the study…
We prove two conjectures in spectral extremal graph theory involving the linear combinations of graph eigenvalues. Let $\lambda_1(G)$ be the largest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of a graph $G$, and $\bar{G}$ be the complement of $G$.…
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 $\Gamma=(V,E)$ be a graph. If all the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of the graph $\Gamma$ are integers, then we say that $\Gamma$ is an integral graph. A graph $\Gamma$ is determined by its spectrum if every graph cospectral to it…
A graph is called an integral graph when all eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix are integers. We study which Cayley graphs over a nonabelian group $$ T_{8n}=\left\langle a,b\mid a^{2n}=b^8=e,a^n=b^4,b^{-1}ab=a^{-1} \right \rangle $$ are…
In this paper, we present a method to obtain regular (or equitable) partitions of Cayley (di)graphs (that is, graphs, digraphs, or mixed graphs) of permutation groups on $n$ letters. We prove that every partition of the number $n$ gives…
Let $G$ be a group and $S\subseteq G$ its subset such that $S=S^{-1}$, where $S^{-1}=\{s^{-1}\mid s\in S\}$. Then {\it the Cayley graph ${\rm Cay}(G,S)$} is an undirected graph $\Gamma$ with the vertex set $V(\Gamma)=G$ and the edge set…
Ramsey proved that for every positive integer $n$, every sufficiently large graph contains an induced $K_n$ or $\overline{K}_n$. Among the many extensions of Ramsey's Theorem there is an analogue for connected graphs: for every positive…
