Abstract
This paper deals with the classification of groups G such that power graphs and proper power graphs of G are line graphs. In fact, we classify all finite nilpotent groups whose power graphs are line graphs. Also, we categorize all finite nilpotent groups (except non-abelian 2-groups) whose proper power graphs are line graphs. Moreover, we investigate when the proper power graphs of generalized quaternion groups are line graphs. Besides, we derive a condition on the order of the dihedral groups for which the proper power graphs of the dihedral groups are line graphs.
