Graphical regular representations of $(2,p)$-generated groups

For groups $G$ that can be generated by an involution and an element of odd prime order, this paper gives a sufficient condition for a certain Cayley graph of $G$ to be a graphical regular representation (GRR), that is, for the Cayley graph to have full automorphism group isomorphic to $G$. This condition enables one to show the existence of GRRs of prescribed valency for a large class of groups, and in this paper, $k$-valent GRRs of finite nonabelian simple groups with $k\geq5$ are considered.
