Classifying Arc-Transitive Circulants

István Kovács

DOI: 10.1023/B:JACO.0000048519.27295.3b

Abstract

A circulant is a Cayley digraph over a finite cyclic group. The classification of arc-transitive circulants is shown. The result follows from earlier descriptions of Schur rings over cyclic groups.
