ABSTRACT
In this work, we provide two applications of the eigenvalues of the unitary Cayley graphs over matrix rings over finite fields. For a ring R, denotes the Jacobson radical of R. In 2012, Kiani and Aghaei conjectured that if R and S are finite rings and their unitary Cayley graphs are isomorphic, then
and
are isomorphic. If this conjecture holds and
, then R is characterized by its unitary Cayley graph, and we say that R is a ring determined by unitary Cayley graphs. Kiani and Aghaei showed that every finite commutative ring and
are such rings. We examine the eigenvalues of
and obtain many new families of rings determined by unitary Cayley graphs. In 2021, Podestá and Videla characterized all finite commutative rings R such that the graphs in the triple
are mutually equienergetic non-isospectral and Ramanujan where
is the unitary Cayley sum graph. We use the eigenvalues of the graph
and some observation on the number of matrices of the given rank to extend Podestá and Videla's results by working on the finite non-commutative ring
being a product of matrix rings over local rings.
