On 2-integral Cayley graphs

From MaRDI portal





In this paper, the authors introduce the concept of \(k\)-integral graphs. A graph \(\Gamma\) is called \(k\)-integral if the extension degree of the splitting field of the characteristic polynomial of \(\Gamma\) over the rational field \(Q\) is equal to \(k\). It is proved that the set of all finite connected graphs with a given algebraic degree and fixed maximum degree is finite. 1-integral graphs are just integral ones, graphs all of whose eigenvalues are integers. 2-integral Cayley graphs over finite groups \(G\) with respect to Cayley sets which are a union of conjugacy classes of \(G\) are studied. Among other general results, all finite abelian groups with a connected 2-integral Cayley graph of valency 2, 3, 4, or 5 are completely characterized. Furthermore, finite groups \(G\) for which all Cayley graphs over \(G\) with bounded valency are 2-integral are classified.
