Cayley graph diameters for fixed cycle types are eventually quasipolynomial
Abstract
Given a cycle type, the corresponding conjugacy class of Sn generates either Sn or An for sufficiently large n. We prove that the sequence of diameters of Cayley graphs is eventually polynomial on residue classes for any fixed cycle type. This result is also extended to finite unions of conjugacy classes.

AB - Given a cycle type, the corresponding conjugacy class of S_n generates either S_n or A_n for sufficiently large n. We prove that the sequence of diameters of Cayley graphs is eventually polynomial on residue classes for any fixed cycle type. This result is also extended to finite unions of conjugacy classes.
