Some problems on Cayley graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
This survey paper presents the historical development of some problems on Cayley graphs which are interesting to graph and group theorists such as Hamiltonicity or diameter problems, to computer scientists and molecular biologists such as pancake problem or sorting by reversals, to coding theorists such as the vertex reconstruction problem related to error-correcting codes but not related to Ulam’s problem. © 2008 Elsevier Inc.

Domination parameters of Cayley graphs of some groups
In this paper, we investigate domination number, $gamma$, as well as signed domination number, $gamma_{_S}$, of all cubic Cayley graphs of cyclic and quaternion groups. In addition, we show that the domination and signed domination numbers of cubic graphs depend on each other.
متن کاملOn the eigenvalues of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs
A graph $Gamma$ is said to be vertex-transitive or edge- transitive if the automorphism group of $Gamma$ acts transitively on $V(Gamma)$ or $E(Gamma)$, respectively. Let $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ be a Cayley graph on $G$ relative to $S$. Then, $Gamma$ is said to be normal edge-transitive, if $N_{Aut(Gamma)}(G)$ acts transitively on edges. In this paper, the eigenvalues of normal edge-tra...
متن کاملGraph product of generalized Cayley graphs over polygroups
In this paper, we introduce a suitable generalization of Cayley graphs that is defined over polygroups (GCP-graph) and give some examples and properties. Then, we mention a generalization of NEPS that contains some known graph operations and apply to GCP-graphs. Finally, we prove that the product of GCP-graphs is again a GCP-graph.
متن کاملCayley graphs and symmetric interconnection networks
These lecture notes are on automorphism groups of Cayley graphs and their applications to optimal fault-tolerance of some interconnection networks. We first give an introduction to automorphisms of graphs and an introduction to Cayley graphs. We then discuss automorphism groups of Cayley graphs. We prove that the vertex-connectivity of edge-transitive graphs is maximum possible. We investigate ...
متن کاملOn the distance eigenvalues of Cayley graphs
In this paper, we determine the distance matrix and its characteristic polynomial of a Cayley graph over a group G in terms of irreducible representations of G. We give exact formulas for n-prisms, hexagonal torus network and cubic Cayley graphs over abelian groups. We construct an innite family of distance integral Cayley graphs. Also we prove that a nite abelian group G admits a connected...
متن کاملOn the eigenvalues of Cayley graphs on generalized dihedral groups
Let $Gamma$ be a graph with adjacency eigenvalues $lambda_1leqlambda_2leqldotsleqlambda_n$. Then the energy of $Gamma$, a concept defined in 1978 by Gutman, is defined as $mathcal{E}(G)=sum_{i=1}^n|lambda_i|$. Also the Estrada index of $Gamma$, which is defined in 2000 by Ernesto Estrada, is defined as $EE(Gamma)=sum_{i=1}^ne^{lambda_i}$. In this paper, we compute the eigen...
