For a finite group $G$ and subset $S$ of $G,$ the Haar graph $H(G,S)$ is a bipartite regular graph, defined as a regular $G$-cover of a dipole with $|S|$ parallel arcs labelled by elements of $S$. If $G$ is an abelian group, then $H(G,S)$ is well-known to be a Cayley graph; however, there are examples of non-abelian groups $G$ and subsets $S$ when this is not the case. In this paper we address the problem of classifying finite non-abelian groups $G$ with the property that every Haar graph $H(G,S)$ is a Cayley graph. An equivalent condition for $H(G,S)$ to be a Cayley graph of a group containing $G$ is derived in terms of $G, S$ and $\mathrm{Aut } G$. It is also shown that the dihedral groups, which are solutions to the above problem, are $\mathbb{Z}_2^2,D_3,D_4$ and $D_{5}$.

Let $\Gamma$ be a finite, additive group, $S \subseteq \Gamma, 0\notin S, -S=\{-s: s\in S\}=S$. The undirected Cayley graph Cay$(\Gamma,S)$ has vertex set $\Gamma$ and edge set $\{\{a,b\}: a,b\in \Gamma$, $a-b \in S\}$. A graph is called integral, if all of its eigenvalues are integers. For an abelian group $\Gamma$ we show that Cay$(\Gamma,S)$ is integral, if $S$ belongs to the Boolean algebra $B(\Gamma)$ generated by the subgroups of $\Gamma$. The converse is proven for cyclic groups. A finite group $\Gamma$ is called Cayley integral, if every undirected Cayley graph over $\Gamma$ is integral. We determine all abelian Cayley integral groups.

For a finite group G and a subset S of G with 1 ∉ S, the Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is the digraph with vertex set G such that (x, y) is an arc if and only if yx−1 ∈ S. The Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is called a CI-graph if, for any T ⊂ G, whenever Cay (G, S) ≅ Cay(G, T) there is an element a σ ∈ Aut(G) such that Sσ = T. For a positive integer m, G is called an m-DCI-group if all Cayley graphs of G of valency at most m are CI-graphs; G is called a connected m-DCI-group if all connected Cayley graphs of G of valency at most m are CI-graphs. The problem of determining Abelian m-DCI-groups is a long-standing open problem. It is known from previous work that all Abelian m-DCI-groups lie in an explicitly determined class of Abelian groups. First we reduce the problem of determining Abelian m-DCI-groups to the problem of determining whether every subgroup of a member of is a connected m-DCI-group. Then (for a finite group G, letting p be the least prime divisor of |G|,) we completely classify Abelian connected (p + 1)-DCI-groups G, and as a corollary, we completely classify Abelian m-DCI-groups G for m ≤ p + 1. This gives many earlier results when p = 2.

Let G be a finite group and S be a subset of G where S does not include the identity of G and is inverse closed. A Cayley graph of a group G with respect to the subset S is a graph where its vertices are the elements of G and two vertices a and b are connected if ab^(−1) is in the subset S. The energy of a Cayley graph is the sum of all absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. In this paper, we consider a specific subset S = {b, ab, . . . , a^(n−1)b} for dihedral group of order 2n, where n is greater or equal to 3 and find the Cayley graph with respect to the set. We also calculate the eigenvalues and compute the energy of the respected Cayley graphs. Finally, the generalization of the energy of the respected Cayley graphs is found.

A Cayley graph of a finite group is called normal edge transitive if its automorphism group has a subgroup which both normalizes and acts transitively on edges. In this paper we determine all cubic, connected, and undirected edge-transitive Cayley graphs of dihedral groups, which are not normal edge transitive. This is a partial answer to the question of Praeger (1999).

Let H be a subgroup of a finite non-abelian group G and g∈G. Let Z(H,G)={x∈H:xy=yx,∀y∈G}. We introduce the graph ΔH,Gg whose vertex set is G\Z(H,G) and two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if x∈H or y∈H and [x,y]≠g,g−1, where [x,y]=x−1y−1xy. In this paper, we determine whether ΔH,Gg is a tree among other results. We also discuss about its diameter and connectivity with special attention to the dihedral groups.

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 [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.

Suppose that G is a finite group, such that |G|=27p, where p is prime. We show that if S is any generating set of G, then there is a Hamiltonian cycle in the corresponding Cayley graph Cay (G;S).

In this paper, we define a new graph [Formula: see text] on a finite group [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a divisor of [Formula: see text]. The vertices of [Formula: see text] are the subgroups of [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text] and two subgroups [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] are said to be adjacent if there exists [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] denote the set of all NRTs of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. We shall discuss the completeness of [Formula: see text] for various groups like finite abelian groups, dihedral groups and some finite [Formula: see text]-groups.
