Abstract: Given a graph Gamma, a subset C of V(Gamma) is called a perfect code in Gamma if every vertex of Gamma is at distance no more than one to exactly one vertex in C, and a subset C of V(Gamma) is called a total perfect code in Gamma if every vertex of Gamma is adjacent to exactly one vertex in C. In this paper we study perfect codes and total perfect codes in Cayley graphs, with a focus on the following themes: when a subgroup of a given group is a (total) perfect code in a Cayley graph of the group; and how to construct new (total) perfect codes in a Cayley graph from known ones using automorphisms of the underlying group. We prove several results around these questions.
