چکیده

Curran, S.J., Hamilton paths in Cayley digraphs of metacyclic groups, Discrete Mathematics 115 (1993) 133-139. We obtain a characterization of all Hamilton paths in the Cayley digraph of a metacyclic group G with generating set {x, y} where (yx-‘) a G. The abundance of these Hamilton paths allows us to show that Hamilton paths occur in groups of at least two.

Hamilton paths in Cayley graphs on generalized dihedral groups

We investigate the existence of Hamilton paths in connected Cayley graphs on generalized dihedral groups. In particular, we show that a connected Cayley graph of valency at least three on a generalized dihedral group, whose order is divisible by four, is Hamiltonconnected, unless it is bipartite, in which case it is Hamilton-laceable.

Hamilton cycles and paths in vertex-transitive graphs - Current directions

In this article current directions in solving Lovász’s problem about the existence of Hamilton cycles and paths in connected vertex-transitive graphs are given. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. 1. Historical motivation In 1969, Lovász [59] asked whether every finite connected vertex-transitive graph has a Hamilton path, that is, a simple path going through all vertices, thus tying toge...

Locally Primitive Normal Cayley Graphs of Metacyclic Groups

A complete characterization of locally primitive normal Cayley graphs of metacyclic groups is given. Namely, let Γ = Cay(G,S) be such a graph, where G ∼= Zm.Zn is a metacyclic group and m = p1 1 p r2 2 · · · p rt t such that p1 < p2 < · · · < pt. It is proved that G ∼= D2m is a dihedral group, and val(Γ ) = p is a prime such that p|(p1(p1 − 1), p2 − 1, . . . , pt − 1). Moreover, three types of ...

On trivial ends of Cayley graph of groups

‎In this paper, first we introduce the end of locally finite graphs as an equivalence class of infinite paths in the graph. Then we mention the ends of finitely generated groups using the Cayley graph. It was proved that the number of ends of groups are not depended on the Cayley graph and that the number of ends in the groups is equal to zero, one, two, or infinity. For ...

Comparing a Cayley Digraph with Its Reverse

A Cayley digraph G = C(Γ, X) for a group Γ and a generating set X is the digraph with vertex set V (G) = Γ and arcs (g, gx) where g ∈ Γ and x ∈ X. The reverse of C(Γ, X) is the Cayley digraph G−1 = C(Γ, X−1) where X−1 = {x−1;x ∈ X}. We are interested in sufficient conditions for a Cayley digraph not to be isomorphic to its reverse and focus on Cayley digraphs of metacyclic groups with small gen...
