A Cayley graph over G is a simple graph whose automorphism group has a regular subgroup isomorphic to G. A Cayley graph is called a CI-graph (Cayley iso- morphism) if its isomorphic images are induced by automorphisms of G. A well-known result of Babai states that a Cayley graph F of G is a CI-graph if and only if all regular subgroups of Aut(F) isomorphic to G are conjugate in Aut(F). A semi-Cayley graph (also called bi-Cayley graph by some authors) over G is a simple graph whose automorphism group has a semiregular subgroup isomorphic to G with two orbits (of equal size). In this paper, we introduce the concept of SCI-graph (semi-Cayley isomorphism) and prove a Babai type theorem for semi-Cayley graphs. We prove that every semi-Cayley graph of a finite group G is an SCI-graph if and only if G is cyclic of order 3. Also, we study the isomorphism problem of a special class of semi-Cayley graphs.展开更多
