In a recent paper Gunnells, Scott and Walden have determined the complete spectrum of the Schreier graph on the symmetric group corresponding to the Young subgroup $S_{n-2}\times S_2$ and generated by initial reversals. In particular they find that the first nonzero eigenvalue, or spectral gap, of the Laplacian is always 1, and report that "empirical evidence" suggests that this also holds for the corresponding Cayley graph. We provide a simple proof of this last assertion, based on the decomposition of the Laplacian of Cayley graphs, into a direct sum of irreducible representation matrices of the symmetric group.

We prove that the spectrum of a Cayley graph over a finite group with a normal generating set S containing with every its element s all generators of the cyclic group 〈s〉 is integral. In particular, a Cayley graph of a 2-group generated by a normal set of involutions is integral. We prove that a Cayley graph over the symmetric group of degree n no less than 2 generated by all transpositions is integral. We find the spectrum of a Cayley graph over the alternating group of degree n no less than 4 with a generating set of 3-cycles of the form (k i j) with fixed k, as {−n+1, 1−n+1, 22 −n+1, …, (n−1)2 −n+1}.

Motivated by a problem of characterising a family of Cayley graphs, we study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\mathsf{Aut}(G)$. It is shown that such groups correspond to complete multipartite graphs which are normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs.

A diagonal base of a Sylow 2-subgroup [Formula: see text] of symmetric group [Formula: see text] is a minimal generating set of this subgroup consisting of elements with only one nonzero coordinate in the polynomial representation. For different diagonal bases, Cayley graphs over [Formula: see text] may have different girths (i.e. minimal lengths of cycles). In this paper, all possible values of girths of Cayley graphs over [Formula: see text] with diagonal bases are calculated. A criterion for whenever such Cayley graph has girth equal to 4 is presented.
