Abstract
The inherent high symmetry of Cayley maps makes them an excellent source of orientably regular maps, and the regularity of a Cayley map has been shown to be equivalent to the existence of a skew-morphism of its underlying group that has a generating orbit closed under inverses. We set to investigate the properties of the so-called t-balanced skew-morphisms of abelian groups with the aim of providing the basis for a complete classification of t-balanced regular Cayley maps of abelian groups. In the case of cyclic groups, we show that the only t-balanced regular Cayley maps for the groups Z2r, Z2pr and Z4pr, p an odd prime, râ¥1, are the well understood balanced and antibalanced Cayley maps.
