Let $Gamma=mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$ be a Cayley digraph on a group $G$ and let $A=mathrm{Aut}(Gamma)$. The Cayley index of $Gamma$ is $|A:G|$. It has previously been shown that, if $p$ is a prime, $G$ is a cyclic $p$-group and $A$ contains a noncyclic regular subgroup, then the Cayley index of $Gamma$ is superexponential in $p$. We present evidence suggesting that cyclic groups are exceptional in this respect. Specifically, we establish the contrasting result that, if $p$ is an odd prime and $G$ is abelian but not cyclic, and has order a power of $p$ at least $p^3$, then there is a Cayley digraph $Gamma$ on $G$ whose Cayley index is just $p$, and whose automorphism group contains a nonabelian regular subgroup. |
