Eigenvalues of antiadjacency matrix of Cayley graph of Z_n

In this paper, we give a relation between the eigenvalues of the antiadjacency matrix of Cay(Z_n, S) and the eigenvalues of the antiadjacency matrix of Cay(Z_n, (Z_n−{0})−S), as well as the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix of Cay(Z_n, S). Then, we give the characterization of connection set S where the eigenvalues of the antiadjacency matrix of Cay(Z_n, S) are all integers.</p

Disjoint Hamilton cycles in transposition graphs

Most network topologies that have been studied have been subgraphs of transposition graphs. Edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles are important in network topologies for improving fault-tolerance and distribution of messaging traffic over the network. Not much was known about edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in general transposition graphs until recently Hung produced a construction of 4 edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in the 5-dimensional transposition graph and showed how edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in (n + 1)-dimensional transposition graphs can be constructed inductively from edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles in n-dimensional transposition graphs. In the same work it was conjectured that n-dimensional transposition graphs have n − 1 edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles for all n greater than or equal to 5. In this paper we provide an edge-labelling for transposition graphs and, by considering known Hamilton cycles in labelled star subgraphs of transposition graphs, are able to provide an extra edge-disjoint Hamilton cycle at the inductive step from dimension n to n + 1, and thereby prove the conjecture
