چکیده

In this paper we present a time-polynomial recognition algorithm for certain classes of circulant graphs. Our approach uses coherent configurations and Schur rings generated by circulant graphs for elucidating their symmetry properties and eventually finding a cyclic automorphism.

Recognizing Circulant Graphs of Prime Order in Polynomial Time Recognizing Circulant Graphs of Prime Order in Polynomial Time

1 Abstract In this paper we present a time-polynomial recognition algorithm for circulant graphs of prime order. A circulant graph G of order n is a Cayley graph over the cyclic group Z n : Equivalently, G is circulant ii its vertices can be ordered such that the corresponding adjacency matrix becomes a circulant matrix. To each circulant graph we may associate a coherent connguration A and, in...

Circulant Graphs: Recognizing and Isomorphism Testing in Polynomial Time

An algorithm is constructed for recognizing the circulant graphs and finding a canonical labeling for them in polynomial time. This algorithm also yields a cycle base of an arbitrary solvable permutation group. The consistency of the algorithm is based on a new result on the structure of Schur rings over a finite cyclic group. §

Recognizing and testing isomorphism of Cayley graphs over an abelian group of order $4p$ in polynomial time

We construct a polynomial-time algorithm that given a graph X with 4p vertices (p is prime), finds (if any) a Cayley representation of X over the group C2 × C2 × Cp. This result, together with the known similar result for circulant graphs, shows that recognising and testing isomorphism of Cayley graphs over an abelian group of order 4p can be done in polynomial time.

Minimal Chordal Sense of Direction and Circulant Graphs

A sense of direction is an edge labeling on graphs that follows a globally consistent scheme and is known to considerably reduce the complexity of several distributed problems. In this paper, we study aparticular instance of sense of direction, called a chordal sense of direction (CSD). In special, we identify the class of k-regular graphs that admit a CSD with exactly k labels (a minimal CSD)....
