On finite groups all of whose cubic Cayley graphs are integral

Abstract

For any positive integer $k$, let $\mathcal{G}_k$ denote the set of finite groups $G$ such that all Cayley graphs ${\rm Cay}(G,S)$ are integral whenever $|S|\le k$. Est${\rm \acute{e}}$lyi and Kov${\rm \acute{a}}$cs \cite{EK14} classified $\mathcal{G}_k$ for each $k\ge 4$. In this paper, we characterize the finite groups each of whose cubic Cayley graphs is integral. Moreover, the class $\mathcal{G}_3$ is characterized. As an application, the classification of $\mathcal{G}_k$ is obtained again, where $k\ge 4$.
