A General Framework for Learning Algebraic Properties from Cayley Graphs using Graph Neural Networks

arXiv:2606.26212v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A Graph Neural Network (GNN) framework for predicting the solvability of finite groups from their Cayley graph representations was introduced in [1]. In the present work, we generalize this approach and develop a property-independent framework for learning algebraic properties of finite groups directly from Cayley graphs. As representative case studies, we consider abelianity, nilpotency, and solvability. Using a common GNN architecture and training pipeline, we investigate the extent to which algebraic structure can be recovered from graph-based

Why this matters
Why now
