A blow-up of $n$ copies of a graph $G$ is the graph $\overset{n}\uplus~G$ obtained by replacing every vertex of $G$ by an independent set of size $n$, where the copies of vertices in $G$ are adjacent in the blow-up if and only if the…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. Bridges and Mena characterized the Cayley graphs of $G$ that have only integer eigenvalues. Here we consider the $(0,1,-1)$ adjacency matrix of an oriented Cayley graph or of a signed Cayley graph $X$ on…

Given a graph with Hermitian adjacency matrix $H$, perfect state transfer occurs from vertex $a$ to vertex $b$ if the $(b,a)$-entry of the unitary matrix $\exp(-iHt)$ has unit magnitude for some time $t$. This phenomenon is relevant for…
For $q\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\{0\}$, the generalized Laplacian of a graph $X$ is the matrix $\mathscr{L}=\Delta+qA$, where $\Delta$ is the degree matrix and $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $X$. In this paper, we investigate perfect state…
We completely characterize circulant graphs with valency up to $4$ that admit perfect state transfer. Those of valency $3$ do not admit it. On the other hand, circulant graphs with valency $4$ admit perfect state transfer only in two…
