✦ Synopsis


The Petersen graph on 10 vertices is the smallest example of a vertex-transitive graph that is not a Cayley graph. In 1983, D. MaruSiE asked, "For what values of n does there exist such a graph on n vertices?" We give several new constructions of families of vertex-transitive graphs that are not Cayley graphs and complete the proof that, if n is divisible byp2 for some primep, then there is a vertex-transitive graph on n vertices that is not a Cayley graph unless n is p 2 , p 3 , or 12.

## Abstract In 1983, the second author [D. Marušič, Ars Combinatoria 16B (1983), 297–302] asked for which positive integers __n__ there exists a non‐Cayley vertex‐transitive graph on __n__ vertices. (The term __non‐Cayley numbers__ has later been given to such integers.) Motivated by this problem,

The aim of this note is to present a short proof of a result of Nedela and S8 koviera (J. Graph Theory 19 (1995, 1 11)) concerning those generalized Petersen graphs that are also Cayley graphs.

## Abstract Let __n__ be an integer and __q__ be a prime power. Then for any 3 ≤ __n__ ≤ __q__−1, or __n__=2 and __q__ odd, we construct a connected __q__‐regular edge‐but not vertex‐transitive graph of order 2__q__^__n__+1^. This graph is defined via a system of equations over the finite field of
