Let $G=N\rtimes H$ be a finite Frobenius group with $|N|=q$ and $|H|=q-1$. We classify all Ramanujan Cayley graphs of $G$ whose connection sets are normal, in the sense of being unions of conjugacy classes. The group-theoretic input is a simple blow-up phenomenon: every such Cayley graph is either $Y[\overline{K_q}]$ or $Y[K_q]$ for a connected regular Cayley graph $Y$ on the complement $H$. We first prove a graph-theoretic result classifying all Ramanujan graphs of these two forms when $Y$ is an arbitrary connected regular graph on $q-1$ vertices. The proof combines the classical characterization of regular graphs with least eigenvalue greater than $-2$ with a second-moment identity in the bipartite case. Translating the resulting five graph types back to $G$ yields a complete classification for all ratio-one Frobenius groups, and in particular for $\operatorname{AGL}(1,q)$ over every finite field.
For a finite graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, let $\eta(G)$ denote the least order of a finite abelian group $\Gamma$ for which $G$ is an induced subgraph of some Cayley graph of $\Gamma$. Babai and S\'os (1985) settled the worst-case order of magnitude: it is $\Theta(n^2)$. We treat $\eta$ instead as an invariant of the ind...
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $N$, $S \subseteq G \setminus \{0\}$ a symmetric connection set, and $K$ a field with $char(K) \nmid N$. The spectral algebra $\mathscr{A_K}(Cay(G,S)) = K[A]$ generated by the adjacency matrix of the Cayley graph is proved to decompose, via the character-orbit decomposition, a...

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $p$ be a prime. We prove that if the common-divisor graph on the nontrivial conjugacy-class sizes of $p$-regular elements of $G$ is disconnected, then $G$ is soluble, resolving the remaining case left by Camina, Mar\'{o}ti, Pacifici, Parker, Rekv\'{e}nyi, Saunders, Sotomayor, Tracey an...
The power graph $P(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph with vertex set $G$ and edge set $E(P(G))=\{uv:\ u,v \in G,\ u \neq v,\ u \in \langle v \rangle \ \text{or}\ v \in \langle u \rangle\},$ where $\langle x\rangle$ denotes the cyclic subgroup generated by $x$. In this paper, we characterise all the finite groups w...

A finite connected graph is rarely a Cayley graph. We measure how far it is from being one: given $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, how few edges must be added, or added and deleted, before the result is a Cayley graph of an abelian group of order $n$ on the same vertex set? This defines two invariants, the completi...
Let $G_{n,m}=\overline{\C_n^{[m]}}$, where $\C_n^{[m]}$ denotes the closed $m$th power of the $n$-cycle. We study the graded Betti numbers and homological invariants of the edge ring of $G_{n,m}$ in the range $n\geq 3m+1$. These graphs form a natural family for the study of edge rings whose regularity can be compared e...
