Abstract: Let $n$ be a positive integer. For each $0leqjleqn-1$ we let $C_n^j$ denote the Cayley graph of the cyclic group $mathbb{Z}_n$ with respect to the subset $1,j$. Utilizing the Smith Normal Form process, we give an explicit description of the Grothendieck group of each of the Leavitt path algebras $L_K(C_n^j)$ for any field $K$. Our general method significantly streamlines the approach that was used in previous work to establish this description in the specific case $j=2$. Along the way, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on the pairs $(j,n)$ which yield that this group is infinite. We subsequently focus on the case $j=3$, where the structure of this group turns out to be related to a Fibonacci-like sequence, called the Narayana's Cows sequence.
