The relative Cayley graph of a group [Formula: see text] with respect to its proper subgroup [Formula: see text] is a graph whose vertices are elements of [Formula: see text] and two vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are adjacent if [Formula: see text] for some [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is an inverse-closed subset of [Formula: see text]. We study the relative Cayley graphs and, among other results, we discuss on their connectivity and forbidden structures, and compute some of their important numerical invariants.

Let [Formula: see text] be a group and [Formula: see text] an inverse closed subset of [Formula: see text]. By a Cayley graph [Formula: see text], we mean the graph whose vertex set is the set of elements of [Formula: see text] and two vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are adjacent if [Formula: see text]. A group [Formula: see text] is called a CI-group if [Formula: see text] for some inverse closed subsets [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] for some automorphism [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. A finite group [Formula: see text] is called a BI-group if [Formula: see text] for some inverse closed subsets [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] for all positive integers [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the set [Formula: see text]. It was asked by László Babai [Spectra of Cayley graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 27 (1979) 180–189] if every finite group is a BI-group; various examples of finite non-BI-groups are presented in [A. Abdollahi and M. Zallaghi, Character sums of Cayley graph, Comm. Algebra 43(12) (2015) 5159–5167]. It is noted in the latter paper that every finite CI-group is a BI-group and all abelian finite groups are BI-groups. However, it is known that there are finite abelian non-CI-groups. Existence of a finite non-abelian BI-group which is not a CI-group is the main question which we study here. We find two non-abelian BI-groups of orders 20 and 42 which are not CI-groups. We also list all BI-groups of orders up to 30.

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}.

Let G be a finite group of order pqr where p > q > r > 2 are prime numbers. In this paper, we find the spectrum of Cayley graph Cay(G,S) where S ? G \ {e} is a normal symmetric generating subset.

Abstract Does every $n$-vertex Cayley graph have an orthonormal eigenbasis all of whose coordinates are $O(1/\sqrt{n})$? While the answer is yes for abelian groups, we show that it is no in general. On the other hand, we show that every $n$-vertex Cayley graph (and more generally, vertex-transitive graph) has an orthonormal basis whose coordinates are all $O(\sqrt{\log n / n})$, and that this bound is nearly best possible. Our investigation is motivated by a question of Assaf Naor, who proved that random abelian Cayley graphs are small-set expanders, extending a classic result of Alon–Roichman. His proof relies on the existence of a bounded eigenbasis for abelian Cayley graphs, which we now know cannot hold for general groups. On the other hand, we navigate around this obstruction and extend Naor’s result to nonabelian groups.

A Cayley graph of a group G is called normal edge-transitive if the normalizer of the right representation of the group in the automorphism of the Cayley graph acts transitively on the set of edges of the graph. In this paper, we determine all connected normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs of the group U6n.

We construct a sequence of finite graphs that weakly converge to a Cayley graph, but there is no labelling of the edges that would converge to the corresponding Cayley diagram. A similar construction is used to give graph sequences that converge to the same limit, and such that a Hamiltonian cycle in one of them has a limit that is not approximable by any subgraph of the other. We give an example where this holds, but convergence is meant in a stronger sense. This is related to whether having a Hamiltonian cycle is a testable graph property.

In this paper, we introduce subgroup complementary addition Cayley graph [Formula: see text] and compute its graph invariants. Also, we prove that [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text].

A Cayley graph [Formula: see text] is called arc-transitive if its automorphism group [Formula: see text] is transitive on the set of arcs in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give a characterization of cubic arc-transitive Cayley graphs on a class of Frobenius groups.

AbstractThe unitary Cayley graph of a ringR, denoted Γ(R), is the simple graph defined on all elements ofR, and where two verticesxandyare adjacent if and only ifx−yis a unit inR. The largest distance between all pairs of vertices of a graphGis called the diameter ofGand is denoted by diam(G). It is proved that for each integern≥ 1, there exists a ringRsuch that diam(Γ(R)) =n. We also show that diam(Γ(R)) ∊ {1, 2, 3,∞} for a ringRwithR/J(R) self-injective and classify all those rings with diam(Γ(R)) = 1, 2, 3, and ∞, respectively.

A Cayley graph [Formula: see text] is said to be core-free if [Formula: see text] is core-free in some [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text]. A graph [Formula: see text] is called [Formula: see text]-regular if [Formula: see text] acts regularly on its [Formula: see text]-arcs. It is shown in this paper that if [Formula: see text], then there exist no core-free tetravalent [Formula: see text]-regular Cayley graphs; and for [Formula: see text], every tetravalent [Formula: see text]-regular Cayley graph is a normal cover of one of the three known core-free graphs. In particular, a characterization of tetravalent [Formula: see text]-regular Cayley graphs is given.
