Singular graphs with dihedral group action

Abstract

Let Γ be a simple undirected graph on a finite vertex set and let A be its adjacency matrix. Then Γ is singular if A is singular. The problem of characterizing singular graphs is easy to state but very difficult to resolve in any generality. In this paper we investigate the singularity of graphs for which the dihedral group acts transitively on vertices as a group of automorphisms.
