Automorphism groups of circulant digraphs with applications to semigroup theory (2017)
Journal Article
Araújo, J., Bentz, W., Dobson, E., Konieczny, J., & Morris, J. (2018). Automorphism groups of circulant digraphs with applications to semigroup theory. Combinatorica, 38(1), 1-28. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00493-016-3403-0

We characterize the automorphism groups of circulant digraphs whose connection sets are relatively small, and of unit circulant digraphs. For each class, we either explicitly determine the automorphism group or we show that the graph is a "normal" ci...
