On the isomorphisms and automorphism groups of circulants

Denote byC _n(S) the circulant graph (or digraph). LetM be a minimal generating element subset ofZ _n, the cyclic group of integers modulon, and In this paper, we discuss the problems about the automorphism group and isomorphisms ofC _n(S). When M S , we determine the automorphism group ofC _n(S) and prove that for any T if and only ifT = S, where is an integer relatively prime ton. The automorphism groups and isomorphisms of some other types of circulant graphs (or digraphs) are also considered. In the last section of this paper, we give a relation between the isomorphisms and the automorphism groups of circulants.
