Abstract

It is known that a strongly regular semi-Cayley graph (with respect to a group G) corresponds to a triple of subsets ( C, D, D | G | \textonesuperior  8 |G| \ne 8 nor 25, all partial difference triples come from a certain family of partial difference triples. Second, we investigate partial difference triples over cyclic group. We find a few nontrivial examples of strongly regular semi-Cayley graphs when | G| is even. This gives a negative answer to a problem raised by de Resmini and Jungnickel. Furthermore, we determine all possible parameters when G is cyclic. Last, as an application of the theory of partial difference triples, we prove some results concerned with strongly regular Cayley graphs.
