Regular balanced Cayley maps on ${\rm PSL}(2,p)$

Haimiao Chen

Abstract

A {\it regular balanced Cayley map} (RBCM for short) on a finite group $Γ$ is an embedding of a Cayley graph on $Γ$ into a surface, with some special symmetric property. People have classified RBCM's for cyclic, dihedral, generalized quaternion, dicyclic, and semi-dihedral groups. In this paper we classify RBCM's on the group ${\rm PSL}(2,p)$ for each prime number $p>3$.

Key Result

Proposition 1.1

(a) A Cayley map $\mathcal{CM}(\Gamma,\Omega,\rho)$ is a RBCM if and only if $\rho$ extends to an isomorphism of $\Gamma$. (b) For a RBCM $\mathcal{CM}(\Gamma,\Omega=\{\omega_{i}\colon 1\leq i\leq m\},\rho)$ with $\rho(\omega_{i})=\omega_{i+1}$, all of the elements of $\Omega$ have the same order, a A RBCM in the case (I) or (II) is said to be of type I or II, and denoted by I-RBCM or II-RBCM, res
