Locally primitive normal Cayley graphs of metacyclic groups (Q2380252)

Summary: A complete characterization of locally primitive normal Cayley graphs of meta-cyclic groups is given. Namely, let \(\Gamma= \text{Cay}(G,S)\) be such a graph, where \(G\cong\mathbb Z_m.\mathbb Z_n\) is a metacyclic group and \(m= p_1^{r_1} p_2^{r_2}\cdots p_t^{r_t}\) such that \(p_1< p_2<\cdots< p_t\). It is proved that \(G\cong D_{2m}\) is a dihedral group, and \(\text{val}(\Gamma)= p\) is a prime such that \(p|(p_1(p_1-1), p_2-1,\dots, p_t-1)\). Moreover, three types of graphs are constructed which exactly form the class of locally primitive normal Cayley graphs of metacyclic groups.
