Proof of a conjecture on eigenvalues of transposition graph

Combinatorics 2025-06-18 v1

Abstract

The transposition graph Cay(Sn,Tn)Cay(S_n,T_n) is the Cayley graph on the symmetric group SnS_n generated by the set TnT_n of all transpositions. In this paper, we show that each integer in the interval [((2n+1)/32),((2n+1)/32)]\left[-{\lfloor(2n+1)/3 \rfloor\choose 2}, {\lfloor(2n+1)/3 \rfloor\choose 2}\right] is an eigenvalue of Cay(Sn,Tn)Cay(S_n,T_n). This proves a recent conjecture by Kravchuk \cite{Kravchuk}.
