In this paper, we consider the entire mean first-passage time (EMFPT) with random walks for Cayley networks. We use Laplacian spectra to calculate the EMFPT. Firstly, we calculate the constant term and monomial coefficient of characteristic polynomial. By using the Vieta theorem, we then obtain the sum of reciprocals of all nonzero eigenvalues of Laplacian matrix. Finally, we obtain the scaling of the EMFPT for Cayley networks by using the relationship between the sum of reciprocals of all nonzero eigenvalues of Laplacian matrix and the EMFPT. We expect that our method can be adapted to other types of self-similar networks, such as vicsek networks, polymer networks.
